Isis Says It S Behind Hostage Siege And Killing In Australia The New York Times Isis (islamic state of iraq and syria), also known as isil (islamic state of iraq and the levant), is a sunni jihadist group with a particularly violent ideology that calls itself a caliphate and claims religious authority over all muslims. it was inspired by al qaida but later publicly expelled from it. rand terrorism experts have analyzed the group's financing, management, and organization. This research was sponsored by the defense advanced research projects agency and conducted within the international security and defense policy center of the rand national defense research institute, a federally funded research and development center sponsored by the office of the secretary of defense, the joint staff, the unified combatant commands, the navy, the marine corps, the defense.

Tankers were indispensable to the air war against isis.with partner ground forces relying heavily on coalition air support for defensive and offensive operations, aerial refueling was needed to enable coalition aircraft to fly farther, stay airborne longer, collect more intelligence, conduct more strikes, and provide uninterrupted close air support. Liepman: some commentators have suggested that this is a huge mistake for isis. i don't think isis cares. (that also applies to the people isis is appealing to.) most of the world already loathes them. i don't think al kasaesbeh's execution changes the ratio. isis is narrowing the appeal of its brand to a narrow slice of a small minority. Will defeating isis in raqqa embolden an assad regime that has already used chemical weapons against its own population? on these—and other fronts—there are more questions than answers. looking ahead. as isis continues to erode, the threat from foreign fighters attempting to return to their countries of origin still looms large.

Isis will likely continue to use encrypted communications to direct terrorist attacks abroad, even as it morphs into a less centralized entity. this virtual element will likely assume even greater significance, as the group exhorts its followers around the world to commit acts of violence in its name until the caliphate can be restored at some. The researchers collected data on more than 150 cities in iraq and syria, month by month. they estimated that as much as a third of the population had fled areas under isis control. factories closed; fields dried up. in syria, more than 60 percent of the lights went dark as isis struggled to restore electricity or fuel generators. Prisons holding former isis fighters in syria pose security threats and don't meet international standards. prisoners, including youth, remain in legal limbo with no internationally agreed on justice procedures. what courses of action and policy directions could help?. The u.s. led international coalition to defeat the islamic state of iraq and syria (isis) has achieved substantial progress over the past several years, but the counter isis campaign is not over. the authors assessed humanitarian needs in eastern syria's middle euphrates river valley (merv).
