Problems with the article:

1st al-Bab was not "taken", ISIS agreed to leave in a deal with Erdogan (Turkey). Wonder what the terms were?

2nd note the caption under photo:

"It is believed the car bomb drove into the Free Syrian Army position before detonating"

and

"The bomber blew up a vehicle packed with explosives outside a rebel command centre in the village of Susian, five miles northeast of Al-Bab, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said."

--

Neither comment says it was driven into area. It seems more likely that ISIS left a rigged vehicle at their old command center and the jubilant FSA were trapped like mice as they celebrated taking over.

To defeat ISIS, you must first capture its head. His name is Obama and his field general is McCain.
