If the wind picked up that whole facade would blow down and they'd be standing/kneeling against desert on a bit of blue lino
#missedthepoint ISIS, for a ragtag militant group, sure have all the trappings or a corporation. They trade, carry out transactions, they bank their cash, know just how to make videos go viral, have financial reports, they produce and refine oil and as we can see in that pic, have excellent laundry services smack bang in the middle of a ****ing desert whilst being at war with the entire ****ing world. #USIsraelProxy
To be fair, those are all things I would expect them to have. And I think you're doing them a misservice to describe them as "ragtag".
Again you missed the point They are not ragtag, they should be, remember NATO and the world are againt them so, you'd think they'd be resolved to very low key low tech operations, remember, you can't take a **** now without the 5 eyes intelligence apparatus knowing about it. So.. in the end the only way such an advanced group can operate as they do is if they are a proxy army of said powers. Which they are. Award winning journalist Seymour Hersh wrote about MI6 and the CIA running weapons out of Libya to Syria using Al Qaeda(joined with ISIL and are now ISIS) Plenty of photographic evidence to back his assertions up given they've all been using the same Toyota truck and car convoys, weapons and so on. You even had a senior FSA(Free Syrian Army) threatening, on video interview, that he will come clean about the Chemical attacks in Syria if the US do not give them more advanced weapons.. those weapons started arriving from Libya within 2 weeks of his outburst. Because everyone with a half informed outlook know it was the FSA and Turkey(US ally) that carried out the Chemical attacks. So, ISIS are no ragtag, they should be but are not because they are not what is being reported, any idiot can see that ISIS would not be an Israeli ally if they were the religiously extremist group they are meant to be otherwise they'd be attacking Israel with Israel not being fond of Islam n'all like, but the truth is Israel has carried out Airstrikes to assist them in Syria and treats injured fighters from Syria in Israeli hospitals. All fo this while the UN is parked in Golan and Lebanon. It's nuts ISIS attacking Iraq Lebanon Syria(but not Israel(US ally)) Turkey(US ally) Attacking the Kurds and Assad Forces but not ISIS US attacking ISIS.. but not Assad forces FSA (US ally) attacking Assad but not ISIS. (The FSA are ****ing ISIS(ISIL)) Assad forces attacking ISIS(ISIL) and FSA Jordan(US ally) training FSA(ISIL) Saudis(US ally) funding ISIL The truth is, there is no Free Syrian army, they are ISIL, and ISIL along with Al Qaeda(Al Nusra) make up ISIS and are amred by all of Gaddafi's weapons and Saudi money, plus training in Jordan and equipping in Turkey, all with the help of the CIA and MI6. Now, you try sort out that ball of yarn ISIS, NATO proxy, the goal, turn that region into fractured stats in perpetual war. Why? The countries in that region had too much power over economies, oil except Afghanistan which is mineral rich. Syria was the gateway to European markets for Iranian oil. Palestine has massive reserves off their coast of gas and oil that Israel wants. Pus Israeli and NATO member weapons manufacturers make a killing, literally. Sure Prince Charles, hes a sales man for the UK weapons industry, there are always new contracts signed the day after he visits the Saudi King on his frequent jaunts The end game is a group of small easily managed fractured failed states that can never join up and assert their dominance through oil ownership and threaten the economy of israel's hammer in the middle east, the US and it's worthless FIAT currency. Anyone that doubts this just needs to look at the serious lobbying for US wars in the middle east done by Pro Israel groups.
