Jerusalem Post ^ | 01/03/26 | Staff

“Britain and France on Saturday conducted an airstrike on an underground facility in the mountains north of Palmyra, Syria, which ISIS terrorists "likely" used to store weapons and explosives, the British Defense Ministry confirmed in a statement. Western aircraft have been conducting patrols to stop a resurgence of the terror group, the ministry noted. Our aircraft used Paveway IV guided bombs to target a number of access tunnels down to the facility," the ministry added, noting that initial indications are that the target was successfully engaged, and that no civilians were put at risk by the strikes.“

Now ISIS will attack in France and the UK. I’m sure they didn’t do this without US help. I wonder how many ISIS vermin were in the tunnels?

I know what you’re thinking:

Well, good on ‘em, I guess. Though I think they have bigger problems on their own doorsteps.

Now what about the ISIS arms storage facilities masquerading as mosques in Britain and France?

It’s a good thing I never plan to go to Britain again, and I’m a U.S. citizen protected by the 1st amendment.

Quick! Someone convene the UN Security Council! ISIS sovereignty must be respected. Or something like that.

France and the UK are ‘harrumping’ over Trump’s action in Venezuela, but justify bombing Syria.

France and the UK justify bombing Syria but refuse to take appropriate action against ISIS/radical Muslims in their own countries

Pardon me while I laugh at the bravery of France and the UK

More and more reports are emerging that the Syrian president, 
Abu Mohammed al-Jolani, has been seriously injured in an 
assassination attempt. This photo is circulating on X and 
telegram channels as well. – Yesterday, Syrian media aired a 
video showing him using the new Syrian currency in a Damascus 
shop, presented as proof he was unharmed.– It now appears the 
video was not recorded within the past five days.– Recent 
reports indicate that Israel warned Syria of an Iranian-
backed plot against him. Once a credible source will disprove 
these reports, I’ll know that the reports are false.
