Obama gave the nod to the application of air strikes on the grouping of the IG in Afghanistan

31
The President of the United States allowed air strikes against the grouping of the DAISH (IG) in Afghanistan - as well as the positions of al-Qaeda, reports RIA News Post Washington Post.



The newspaper notes that "the new powers will allow American troops to more actively strike at the IS".

"Previously, the use of force was allowed only in relation to Al-Qaida, as well as to protect and assist the Afghan military," reminds WP. About building up military forces in Afghanistan says nothing.

The Obama decision "became known a few days after the State Department officially announced the inclusion of the Khorasan group in the list of banned terrorist organizations in Afghanistan," the newspaper said.

At the same time, the Pentagon is trying not to publicly mention the growing influence of the IG in the republic, on the contrary, the command declares the weakness of the group. Thus, the deputy head of the US headquarters in Afghanistan, Wilson Shoffner, told reporters on Tuesday that "IS militants act periodically and they do not have the ability to organize and conduct operations simultaneously in more than one part of the country."

        Maybe our Government should think about it and donate the S-300 to Doctors Without Borders? laughing And the wedding gift for the newlyweds - "Igloo"? American pilots will not be offended if they are reminded that the spirits have learned how to handle the Stingers in Afghanistan. Perhaps, and "Needles" will master ...

      Dark night...
      Hellfire flies through the gorge
      Another fire all night in the mountains
      Chasing the Taliban

      Poor Taliban
      He ran through the mountains all night
      But the evil fire caught up with him
      I stuck in a sissy ass ...

    The best refuge for Daesh (IS) and Al Qaeda in Afghanistan are the opium poppy plantations. Their US will not bomb

    Well, it’s unlikely, and who will be involved in drug trafficking that they decided to stay for another ten years in Afghanistan.

    In Afghanistan, it is necessary to introduce a ban on all mass events in the country and introduce a requirement: do not go for more than two and do not gather for more than three.

    The US policy around the world is based on the formula "If you can't, but you really want to, then you can." They tested it back in Yugoslavia, rest in peace to her: http://www.planetoday.ru/balkany-pod-paytinoi-cry/ Well, now they are improving.
