U.S Troops in Iraq had their first battle with ISIS early Monday morning when the militant group tried to attack the Ein al-Asad military base, which holds close to 100 U.S. military advisers.
Reports state that American troops decimated ISIS in a two-hour battle that ultimately forced their retreat.
Soldiers were armed with “light and medium” weapons….and fighter jets, whose air strikes against the the militants “silenced their heavy sources of fire.”
Currently, there are no reports of U.S. casualties.
Looks like ISIS had grandiose ideas about how they would fare against our boys….
The U.S. troops, armed with “light and medium weapons,” and were able to inflict casualties against the ISIS fighters, forcing them to retreat, Shafaq News reported.
“US forces intervened because of ISIS started to come near the base, which they are stationed in so out of self-defense,” said Sheikh Mahmud Nimrawi, a prominent tribal leader.
The incident was the first time that American troops clashed with ISIS forces on the ground in Iraq. For several weeks, the United States has led a series of air strikes against ISIS positions in Iraq and Syria, ones aimed at crippling the militant group’s ability to move about the country and coordinate attacks.
ISIS has responded by calling on members to strike out against American interests in the United States and Canada, and also executing Western hostages. Rebels are now reportedly trying to sell the body of American journalist James Foley for a reported $1 million.
Militants are reportedly offering a DNA sample from Foley’s body to prove its authenticity.
“They ask for $1 million, and they will send DNA to Turkey, but they want the money first. They will not give the DNA without the money,” a former Syrian rebel reportedly told BuzzFeed.
The man claimed to be motivated not by greed or a quest for fame, but by a desire to help the mourning Foley family “find closure,” and deemed his outreach as part of a “humanity case.”
The U.S. forces attacked by ISIS in Iraq were part of a small group that remained in the country to offer support and training to tribal fighters.

I cant tell u how many times i seen this post
we fund muslim brother hood, gave syria rebels which are isis- 48 armored truck and muslim brother hood fkin jets whom are always starting the al quaeda and isis type groups for us via CIA training etc
fact of the matter is american government isnt american. john adams and hamilton started this via federalist party funded by central banks
rothschild family own federal reserve and europe central banks are recieving our gold and currency as debt owed to paper
its a fkin controlled currency ponzi scheme. our government was literally highjacked.
refer to andrew jackson ending national debt by taking the gold back from federal reserve by force.
refer to hamilton being shot by another founding father, john adams attacked freedom of speech 8 yrs into the country for political and personal gain. both of whom debated rights come from government not being intelligent living creatures with rights given to us by nature and or god, inwhich we can agree to live freely, and responsibly. responsible freedom.
they were the originals of the insurgents of the central banks of europe the owners of which are the british rothschild family whom always wanted the accumulative wealth of the resources here the indians never used.
our debt, the devaluing of the dollar. that is them taking it. all the wars fought that didnt directly effect our soil since ww2, is them using us to secure debt around the world and to secure more control over currency leading to global control of currency
