British SAS attack ISIS in Burkas!
Here's an ISIS story that will make your day! This is one time you will actually appreciate how useful the burka can be!
British special forces troops donned the full-length Islamic dress to sneak undetected through the ISIS' de facto capital Raqqa and take down their terrorist commander, news reports.
The eight-man SAS squad also eliminated several jihadi fighters after lifting up their burkas and opening fire on the stunned militants, who had no time to hide from the hail of bullets.
The men posed as ISIS chiefs wives by covering themselves from head-to-toe in the traditional black burkas and managed to make their way to the group's headquarters. Underneath the burkas the troopers had grenades, machine guns and enough ammo to rain hell upon the terrorist scumbags. Priceless!
After making their way through the town they located the house of a senior terrorist chief and relayed the location and coordinates to a US Air Force AWAC mission control aircraft circling thousands of feet above.
The American spy plane then passed the information onto a US Reaper drone, which seconds later fired a Hellfire missile into the building, vaporizing the ISIS commander and several of his henchmen, The Express reported.
When jihadi militants heard the explosion they rushed onto the streets and discovered the burka-clad troopers, who took down several Jihads during a fierce gun battle as they fought their way to safety.
"The SAS team were moving back to their vehicles after the missile had struck when the town went into lockdown," a source revealed. "Gunmen were on the streets stopping everyone, lining people up against the walls and threatening to kill anyone who had helped the 'spies'."
"Just as the British soldiers were getting back into a minivan several gunmen ordered them to stop," the source said. "The troopers ignored the warnings and were about to drive off when the Jihads opened fire."
"The SAS jumped out of the vehicle, lifted up their burkas and opened fire. It must have been a massive shock to the gunmen," recalled the source. "One was killed instantly and two others ran off. The firefight gave the SAS just enough time to break contact with the Isis gunmen and escape."
A good friend, on the ground reported that shortly after the daring raid, rumors started swirling around town that the "infidels" had sent women to do their fighting rather than men, the source said. However, as we know now, it was actually eight brave soldiers with far better training and much better equipment, and the result was that they struck a "severe blow" to ISIS/Daesh in the area.
It definitely takes a brave man to walk straight into the pits of hell like these soldiers did, especially knowing the consequences if they were caught. But it's awesome they used Islam's own rituals to infiltrate the group, then wreak havoc.

Excellent post! T Y
Go, Trump, GO!
I love the SAS.
This is why.
Always did like the British military. Their libs are as bad as ours, though.
Balls of Steel.
I just love stories with a happy ending.
Those targets identified by the red arrows should be smoldering craters now.
Clever bastards. Well played!
Love ‘em or hate ‘em, but there’s a reason the British at one time ruled half the globe. Who Dares Wins.

So that is what Eddie Stone has been up to.
72 virgins of death ...
Read this a couple months and still think it’s hilarious...
Jack Churchill would have loved to be a part of this attack. However, I cannot see him in a burkha while playing the bagpipe.
Historical inaccuracy... should be 72 Virginians.
how the f should i know?
