So the Battle of Mosul is just about over, they blew up their

Because Mattis in a Talos suit was present.

America proxies have them sexy ass TOW missiles.

>>34333468
Because Russia is fighting against the real ISIS. Kinda like WW2, you know, Russia fights the veterans while USA fights the teens and conscripts.

>>34333661
ISIS really wasn't involved in Aleppo

>Russia fights the veterans while USA fights the teens and conscripts
They're both fighting teens and conscripts. The veterans emigrate to Europe as refugees.

if only every Muslim country threw a tantrum and blew up their mosques every time they lost territory. better that than an ancient Persian treasure or Buddhist monuments.

LOL yah OK. Have you watched the videos the past few years? The Iraqi IS dudes are easily some of the most sophisticated, heavily armed, and semi tactical terrorists we've seen from the Middle East yet.

Does anyone have an estimate on number of VBIEDs they used? It has to be over 500 in Mosul, some intense fighting from alot of the videos I see on Iraqi Facebook pages

>> they blew up their mosque
You mean Americans bombed it and blamed it on ISIS. Ouch. That ought to win some hearts and minds in muslim world.
>>and retreated
So what you're telling is that Iraqis and US can't even properly besiege desert shithole the size of Terre Haute. Utter failure and incompetence, just as expected from someone who allowed to lose the place to 200 dunecoons in 2014.
>>yet Aleppo took 4 years to fall to Russian-backed proxies
Russia didn't even enter the conflict until September 2015. When SAA was falling apart against dozens of Saudi, Turkish, Israeli and American backed terrorist factions on multiple fronts all across the country. By that time Mosul was under ISIS control for more than a year; and US-led coalition was barely even playing pretend at bombing ISIS. The actual operation to retake Aleppo started in July 2016 and ended by December of the same year. Despite international pressure, media hysteria and UN imposed ceasefires to drag out that process.

Well what da ya think of that. A crippled, ragtag army of a war torn failed state backed by two dozen slavshit planes has secured largest urban megapolis more efficiently and in a timeframe shorter than the overbloated western coalition and it's propped up tacticool sandnogs took a shanty town on the other the Euphrates.
