La vidéo, diffusée par ISIS au Mali, sur son attaque contre la force spéciale américaine au Niger, a duré plus de 10minutes, et comprend des scènes d'un soldat blessé hurlant, en plus des corps de trois autres soldats américains morts. pic.twitter.com/toJeMUNDBj— محمدمحمود أبوالمعالي (@maboulmaaly) January 24, 2018
Sputnik has the story but as usual they're right as rain and have links. Read it for yourself here.
I said it once and I'll say it again.
ISIS has morphed. They are no longer a classic terrorist group that you can battle with small units. They are more akin to a nation state army than what we once thought of as terrorists from the 80's and 90's.
We have to go heavy.
I'm talking about AT LEAST company sized actions with supporting fire and logistics.
I'm talking about a REAL DEAL quick reaction company that is sitting in gear waiting to go out and enough helos that are set aside to conduct that mission (of course that includes cannons ready to fire and fast movers or attack helos waiting to respond).
Africa will eat our forces alive if we're not prepared, equipped and mentally attuned to the situation.
In short don't be fooled by a smiling face that is concealing a machete to lob off your head or an AK to fill you with lead.
