Finally
the United States has decided to try to stop the infamous terrorist group known
as ISIS. They have recently destroyed an Islamic State convoy near the city of
Mosul. The main target was the terrorist group’s commander Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
There were 10 targeted vehicles, but the U.S. is not sure if the commander was
eliminated or not. “I can confirm that a coalition aircraft did conduct a
series of air strikes yesterday evening in Iraq against what was assessed to be
a gathering of ISIL leaders near Mosul” (1). Ryder, a commander for the
American forces said this as he was the one overlooking the bombings. Ryder
called ISIS ISIL, which is another accepted name for the terrorist group. ISIS
has not been as active as they have been the last couple of months, and have
switched to a lower profile. They have been using vehicles to avoid being
targeted, and have been having many meetings. Aby Bakr al-Baghdadi’s fate is
unknown, but the Americans have shown the terrorist group that they are willing
to do anything to stop and destroy them. ISIS used to not worry about the
United States’ interference, because they believed that the Americans were bluffing
and would never waste their time trying to solve problems in the Middle East.
Although, now ISIS has a superpower to think of before commencing their
attacks. They will think twice before
It is
important to know that the United States has stepped in and taken action
matters in their own hands. The people of the Middle East can take a deep
breath and relax.
