BRITISH Special Forces have used a “mannequin army” of shop dummies to lure dozens of Islamic State (ISIS) fighters into an ambush in eastern Syria, military sources have revealed.

The operation targeted an ISIS unit that had been making repeated strikes on Kurdish Peshmerga forces.

The top-secret mission took place two weeks ago near the town of Bussayrah, close to the Euphrates River, and involved a joint force of UK and American troops.

At least a dozen shop mannequins were dressed in Kurdish combat uniforms before being flown in by members of the SAS.

Some were posed holding weapons, as if on lookout, while others were arranged to look like they were sleeping or talking....

Should pose them as Christian women. The Muzzies would line up to rape them.

Why tell the world how they did it? Really, even in a free society, some things should be kept secret.
