Exclusive: ISIL loses 45% of territory in Iraq, 20% in Syria


WASHINGTON — The Islamic State has lost 45% of the territory it once held in Iraq and 20% of areas it controlled in Syria, according to new estimates by a U.S.-led coalition combating the extremist group.

Those slow but steady battlefield losses in Iraq are prompting the Islamic State to strike back against civilians with terrorist bombings, the latest killing dozens in Baghdad on Tuesday.

The territory seized by Iraqi forces, aided by coalition airstrikes and advisers, is up from 40% announced earlier this year, according to the latest estimates, which had not been made public before. The percentages are based on areas the militants controlled at their peak strength after they swept into Iraq in 2014.

Such is the ridiculous partisan right, and their idiotic meme that Obama is ‘always wrong.’

In recent weeks, U.S.-aided Iraqi forces pushed militants out of towns in western Iraq’s Euphrates River Valley as they consolidated gains made last December, when Iraq’s army retook the city of Ramadi.

Iraqi forces have begun operations around Mosul, Iraq’s second largest city, in preparation for a major offensive to drive the militants out.

Progress has been slower in Syria, where the U.S.-led coalition cobbled together rebel groups to build a ground force capable of taking on the Islamic State. The size of that force is growing and the Pentagon reported a string of recent successes in northeastern Syria.

Straight out of Washington huh? Then we've got nothing to worry about where the JV's are concerned. Whew!

You liberals can thank the Russians for Syria. Obama ain't do nothin.

Paris and Brussels is relieved

ISIS was once a threat to establish Islamic states in Syria and Iraq. Obama led coalition forces have greatly reduced that threat. The good guys are winning

ISIS is no longer a nation building threat and must resort to terrorist attacks
