IS Militants Kill 300 Iraqi Soldiers with Chlorine Gas

Iraqi Member of Parliament Ali al-Bredi has claimed that Islamic State (IS) militants are using Chlorine gas against Iraqi soldiers in Fallujah.

In a press conference on Monday, al-Bredi revealed that IS have killed 300 Iraqi soldiers with chlorine gas.

He said that the militants deployed the gas in the Siqiliya area located of northern Fallujah, a city in Anbar province, about 70 km from the capital of Iraq, Baghdad.

“Responsibility for this lies with Iraqi PM Haidar Abadi and the commander of the forces in Anbar as they failed to rescue the  soldiers,” said al-Bredi.

Expanding on the circumstances surrounding the attack, al-Bredi said, “After the insurgents surrounded the Iraqi soldiers, they used chlorine gas to suffocate them before detonating a car bomb, resulting in the death of 300 out of 400 soldiers.”

Al-Bredi also said that before the crime was committed, the soldiers asked for an urgent rescue mission, but were ignored.

Furthermore, on Sunday, US Secretary of State John Kerry also reiterated US concern over the use of chlorine gas against civilians in Syria and warned President Bashar al-Assad’s regime that it would be held to account.

I heard these reports before but decided not post them. Now it seems confirmed. Was Assad right?

Before considering it “confirmed,” let us spend some time remembering that great comedian, Baghdad Bob.

Nasty way to go. Many times not immediate death. Lungs fill with fluid. Kind of like pneumonia.

There are no WMD’s in Iraq or Syria. We have guarantees by all the dim party. On a side note, I have a piece of water front property in Arizona...

Perhaps the UN will take a time-out from its ongoing mission to destroy Israel to make note of this flagrant violation of “the laws of war.”

What? JF'n is holding Assad responsible for crimes committed by IS which Assad's troops are fighting?

This is essentially condoning use of chlorine by IS.

Kerry will come on the TV with his long face and say,

"That wasn't nice. As a result, ISIL's application for entry into Skull and Bones has been substantially delayed."

Seem to suggest the wmd attck that was blamed on Assad may have been the work of ISIS. It bother me US was so quick to blame Assad or Putin for civilians deaths before an investigation was even done

Our resident idiot at the state department is still blaming Assad for Isis attacks with chemical weapons. I hope no American soldiers die from chemical weapon attacks or the Ebola virus. The idiots in this regime are making that nightmare more likely with every passing day.
