ISIS moves in on Afghanistan: Chilling pictures show jihadis have set up terror training camps
The Daily Mail ^ | December 5, 2015 | By IMOGEN CALDERWOOD

Reports emerged this week that the Taliban leader was killed in a dramatic internal shoot-out after a meeting of commanders of the now divided movement turned sour.

The formerly united group has been severed by a bitter internal turmoil that has seen a splinter cell break away and declare loyalty to ISIS, which is steadily carving a trail of bloody destruction through the Taliban’s Afghanistan territory.

It is believed that members of the ISIS-led breakaway cell could be responsible for the as yet unconfirmed death of the Taliban’s elected leader Mullah Akhtar Mansour.

His death, if proven, exposes the strife among the Taliban’s top ranks as the group seems to be crumbling under ISIS’ growing strength in Afghanistan.

Nice to see Obama has these guys contained to a narrow geographic region in Syria and Nortern Iraq.

These camps were set up and have been in operation since long before Obama made his claims of containment so here we have another lie from the President of the a United States that provides aid andcomfort to the enemy

Afghanistan will be on ISIS radar as a entire Country to be their own. Most of Afghanistan is already jihads now and wouldn't take much after America leaves. It will be like it once was and the capital of terror of the world. Iraq doesn't look to good to them now.

Well if we know where they are why don't we send them some housewarming gifts? Silly of me, we'll have to wait for someone with balls to take them out, paging Mr. Putin, paging Vladimir Putin, your finger is required on the firing button.

It is ridiculous, pathetic really, that we've put ourselves in a place where we care about who the f*** is the government of f***ing AFGHANISTAN!

The enemy is Pakistan and Saudi Arabia. They fall, Afghanistan is irrelevant. We run Afghanistan like it was Wisconsin and Pakistan stands, we lose. There's nothing in Trashcanistan that's worth a drop of American blood or a silver dime. And that's the way it is.

I’ve been wondering what the outcome would be if the majority of “terrorist training camps” in the USA were turned into glass parking lots ..??

Hmmmm ..?? Does anybody believe it would deter more terrorists from coming here ..??.. or would it make the terrorists just attack us more ..??

I’m not going to fire a $2 million missile at a $10 empty tent and hit a camel in the butt.

So .. you believe the training camps are “empty” ..??

Are you sure about that ..??

And .. a tactical nuke is smaller and a whole lot less expensive; just in case you didn’t know.
