Con artist helped Islamic State fighters escape

[someoneyouknow]

Despite his attempt to hide his crime, the con artist has been outed in his complicity in not only allowing Islamic State fighters to escape, along with their families, weapons and ammunition, but actively taking part to make it happen. Thanks to the BBC, we know the truth about the con artist's treasonous act.

Lorry driver Abu Fawzi thought it was going to be just another job.
. . .
Abu Fawzi and dozens of other drivers were promised thousands of dollars for the task but it had to remain secret.​

Footage secretly filmed and passed to us shows lorries towing trailers crammed with armed men. Despite an agreement to take only personal weapons, IS fighters took everything they could carry. Ten trucks were loaded with weapons and ammunition.

The drivers point to a white truck being worked on in the corner of the yard. “Its axle was broken because of the weight of the ammo,” says Abu Fawzi.

This wasn’t so much an evacuation - it was the exodus of so-called Islamic State.

. . .

In light of the BBC investigation, the coalition now admits the part it played in the deal. Some 250 IS fighters were allowed to leave Raqqa, with 3,500 of their family members.

First, what does this have to do with Trump? Second, do you remember when Obama cut five terrorist leaders loose in exchange for one deserter, who is now in prison?

The five terrorist leaders are also in prison, and have been this whole time. Something Fox News neglects to report.

Oops. Has Box been bitten in the butt by those pesky actual facts again?

I don't believe that. Can you prove it. I have read they were sent to Qatar temporarily, but are now free to go anywhere.

Are they joining the UFC? Lightweights surely. Although the bombs do add 10lbs, on and off camera.

If that's true, you can cite your source yourself. Look it up yourself. It's about time that you actually look stuff up rather that dump your idiotic posts on this discussion board.

You can't find it either, huh?

There's this: http://www.ibtimes.com/what-happens-5-taliban-prisoners-swapped-bergdahl-1595018

It's not very current, but does belie what you said.

At the moment, the five -- Abdul Haq Wasiq, Mullah Norullah Noori, Mullah Mohammad Fazl, Mullah Khairullah Khairkhwa, and Mohammed Nabi -- are in Qatar, the tiny Persian Gulf emirate in which the Taliban established a political office in 2012. Under the terms of the agreement, the freed prisoners will remain in Qatar for one year, where they will be free to move about the country. After one year, the men will be allowed to leave Qatar and “can go back to Afghanistan if they want to,” a senior Gulf official told Reuters.

Stop being so stupid. Of course I didn't look for it. You are worthless and not worth the time.

First, read further in the linked article:

But it also enabled many hundreds of IS fighters to escape from the city. At the time, neither the US and British-led coalition, nor the SDF, which it backs, wanted to admit their part.

Has the pact, which stood as Raqqa’s dirty secret, unleashed a threat to the outside world - one that has enabled militants to spread far and wide across Syria and beyond?

What's the Tromp connexion? Read that line again: ...neither the US and British-led coalition, nor the SDF, which it backs, wanted to admit their part. As CinC, Tromp is responsible for his underlings' actions, including the strategic decision to release the terrorists.

Second... oh look, Obama!

But if we're delving into the past, look at Dubya's gang pushing a bullshit war that has incited a generation of terrorists? Let's revisit that administration's commissions of War Crimes and Crimes Against Humanity. Not to mention their financial malfeasance that led to the mini-depression. Oh look, Dubya!
