With the SAS lurking, the ISIS terrorists sleep with the light on

23/11/14

His Majesty has deployed against Isis the worst enemy terrorists could dream of facing: the Special Air Service commandos, better known as SAS. The news was confirmed a few hours ago by the British government and has been resumed, obviously, by all international newspapers.

To date, in fact, it was believed that the SAS had not been deployed against ISIS in Iraq. Instead, we discover that not only are some groups active, but also their mission: Hunter Killer.

The SAS, say from London, eliminate the terrorists with an average of eight targets per day. The commandos move on armed quads and all are equipped with Barrett sniper rifles. The British Ministry of Defense has gone further. The SAS, in fact, were not deployed to instruct local troops, but only to carry out ambushes. To date, English leather heads have eliminated over 200 terrorists in four weeks. The teams are infiltrated by the RAF Chinook helicopters fifty miles from the targets: once on the ground, the hunt begins.

We are sowing panic among terrorists - added an SAS source to Dailymail - they do not know when and where we will hit and, frankly, there is nothing they can do to stop us. They can hide from planes, but they can't stop our snipers. And now the terrorists are terrified of the night because it is precisely in the darkness that we drive them out. We always leave someone alive so we can tell the hell he came out of.

The SAS do not take prisoners

Targets are identified by drones operating from a secret SAS base or from other departments of the British army. Once the objectives are identified, the hunt begins. The English leather heads move on board the quads equipped with GPMG machine guns. The missions take place on a daily basis. In four weeks the SAS have poured so much lead on the terrorists that the supplies of bullets for machine guns and snipers have been tripled. Hammering the main ISIS supply routes throughout western Iraq, but the SAS also hit terrorist checkpoints set up to conduct kidnappings. Once the 90% of targets have been eliminated, the SAS return to the exfiltration point. The average is eight terrorists eliminated a day. The SAS raids aim to undermine Isis' combat capability before the spring offensive which will involve 20 thousand Iraqi and Kurdish soldiers.

Obviously, it must be considered that the ISIS structure has few fixed operational centers, while its chain of command remains mobile. The goal of the SAS, however, is to bring terror to those who have no qualms about arming children and selling women to the sex market.
