    Default WATCH: Iran Training Taliban To Attack U.S.

    OAN Newsroom
    UPDATED 6:42 AM PT — Wed. July 4, 2018


    A new report claims the Ayatollah regime is training an elite Taliban force to inflict maximum casualties to U.S. troops in Afghanistan.
    One America’s Kristian Rouz has the details.


    No surprise here. Guess we'll just sit and watch as usual and try to talk them to death

    Over a year ago, now they are worth 'negotiating with?' Not a new 'insurgence.' The 'attack' that resulted in one of ours and 11 others being killed last week was just what they said, 'An attack to prove their strength going into the talks.'

    One cannot negotiate with a group that has sworn to kill you.

    An interesting video.

    A pair of A-10's or an AC-130 could wipe out that rag-tag convoy.
    I have lost my mind. If found, please give it a snack and return it?

    I've never doubted the US military could 'wipe them out.' As the President has said, "He doesn't want to do that."

    Good question. See how far he gets pushed, I think.

    Maybe already is bombing them .....

    US bombs ISIS-'infested island' in Iraq,

    U.S. jets bombed an ISIS-“infested island” in northern Iraq Tuesday, according to new video and a statement from the U.S.-led coalition battling the terrorist group.
    More than 80,000 pounds of laser-guided bombs were dropped on the island located on the Tigris River south of Mosul, according to U.S. Army Col. Myles B. Caggins III, a spokesman for Operation Inherent Resolve, based in Baghdad.
    U.S. officials called the island a “major transit hub” for ISIS fighters going in and out of Syria.
    "We're denying [ISIS] the ability to hide on Qanus Island," said Maj. Gen. Eric T. Hill, the commander of the Special Operations Joint Task Force – Operation Inherent Resolve. "We're setting the conditions for our partner forces to continue bringing stability to the region."
    A tweet from OIR Spokesman Col. Myles B. Caggins, which aired the video, said: "Here's what it looks like when @USAFCENT F15 and F35 jets drop 36,000kg of bombs on a Daesh [ISIS] infested island."
