Islamic State terror attacks to INCREASE after defeat in Iraq and Syria, warns US general
SLAMIC State will use their military defeat in Iraq and Syria to morph into a global terror organisation capable of waging increasingly deadly attacks on the West, a senior US general has warned.
Commander Lieutenant General Sean MacFarland, who heads the US-led Operation Inherent Resolve, issued the bleak assessment after spending almost a year fighting against ISIS in Iraq.
The experienced general said the future of the Islamist group was as an al-Qaeda style insurgency once its territory had been carved up in the Middle East.
He said: "Military success in Iraq and Syria will not necessarily mean the end of Daesh [ISIS].
"We can expect the enemy to adapt, to morph into a true insurgent force and terrorist organisation capable of horrific attacks like the one here on July 3rd in Baghdad and those others we've seen around the world."
More than 300 people were killed in the Iraqi capital on that day when ISIS bombers struck a commercial street in the Karrada district of central Baghdad.
The attack was one of the deadliest in Iraq since Saddam Hussein was toppled 13 years ago.
Lt Gen MacFarland also warned that ISIS would attempt to move their strategic bases from cities that have fallen to coalition forces, including the town of Manbij which served as a key supply route between Turkey and ISIS' de-facto capital Raqqa.
He said: "They may re-locate or try to re-constitute that capability elsewhere but it won't be as convenient for the enemy if they do that and it won't be as effective."

The ISIS is made up of some religious militants. Which shows us how much religion influences people. And the long-time opposition between Sunni and Shia worse the condition. In order to avoid the appearing of another "ISIS", all we can do is to learn respecting the religion which is different from ours.
回覆刪除It seems that it is not the end of their attacking. It is really a mess and tragic story in those area which is squeezed by the ISIS. The ISIS has become a very big problem around the world nowadays. We need a current resolution to deal with them. Although Taiwan is not a big country, I think there is still some assistance we can provide.
回覆刪除ISIS is a really horrible in my mind after seeing all their reports. Although we are not get involved in those attacks,we must pay more attention to environment around us and protect ourselves.The most important is we should not speak ill of them and respect them.
