Officers seized thousands of uniforms and other military gear on the way to terror groups Isis and al-Nusra Front.
Spain's National Police reported on Thursday that officers had intercepted 20,000 uniforms and other military gear that were being sent to terror groups Isis and al-Nusra Front - the Syrian branch of al-Qaeda.
"With nearly 20,000 uniforms and military accessories seized, they would have been able to equip an entire army, which would be perfectly prepared to enter combat in any of the centres of conflict where terrorist jihadist organizations operate in the world," the Interior Ministry reported on Thursday.
Police had discovered 5,000 kilos of equipment within three different shipping containers - two in Valencia and one in Algeciras - all linked to an international network of companies.

Oh, snap. Now the impoverished and wretched “freedom fighters” shall have to fight while wearing Nikes and Adidas clothing. Or maybe Aeropostale togs.
How shall we ever be able to determine who are the fighters and who are the poor simple civilians on the street? < /sarcasm >

They should have laced the uniforms with Smallpox and sent them on the way.

They were just trying to adhere to the rules of the Geneva Convention. You know how ISIS likes to follow the international rules. /s

They knew they were for ISIS because of the big JV on the back.

That’s great, but Obama’s CIA is going to want their stuff back.

They knew they were for ISIS because of the big JV on the back. I thought it was the tag in each that said "A gift From Barack Obama"
