A U.S. Special Operations raid rescued “numerous” Iraqis who were held captive by ISIS, a senior defense official confirms to Fox News.

The official said the hostages were not Kurds. He would not comment on reports of U.S. deaths.

The official could not immediately say where the rescue took place. It’s not clear which rescue forces were involved.

Okay, of what significance were these Iraqis? Oh, yeah, they were Muslims.

Sounds like some military group did something somewhere to rescue somebody from somebody else and moved them from some place to another place.

Well, who would ever expect the Obama regime to green-light any rescue of Kurds (the only effective ground force opposing ISIS)?

Iraqi officials said the raid involved American helicopters, Kurdish and American Special Operations forces, and airstrikes.

The officials said the objective had been a prison run by the militants at a village east of Hawija. According to these accounts, American helicopters flew the commandos to the site.

One U.S. soldier was killed and 70 Kurdish hostages were rescued after U.S. special operations forces teamed with Iraqis in a rescue mission inside Iraq Thursday, a Defense Department official told CBS News national security correspondent David Martin.

Skeptic post.

WH and Hillary needed a big military win to counter the hearing today.

With Biden dropping out, the Clinton Machine is back and will be controlling the narrative through the next November election.
