Is there any evidence in the claim that Americans have been secretly supplying weapons to rebel groups in Syria, now used in Iraq?Mogg Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08730086174910373408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4871088750473093560.post-38593125787646482002014-06-17T18:39:58.920-07:002014-06-17T18:39:58.920-07:00After reviewing some Hellfire missile strike video...After reviewing some Hellfire missile strike videos as well as some barrel bombings, my best speculation is that the explosions in the video you linked are from missiles. The explosion may appear bigger in the video due to the infrared camera's exposure to the sudden brightness. Also, you can see a distinct "flash" several seconds before the explosion. This is a classic indication of a missile being launched whereas a barrel bomb is simply dropped and has no projection system. Again, this is only my speculation based on what I have seen.Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07893752091523074771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4871088750473093560.post-47619418504173132382014-06-16T08:23:56.128-07:002014-06-16T08:23:56.128-07:00Link appears to be broken, although if people are ...Link appears to be broken, although if people are getting excited about ISIS having US weapons they should settled down.

The explosions are singular - and appear far too large for the S-8, Hellfire, and 9M120 missiles currently employed by Iraqi aircraft. Could these be barrel-bomb strikes filmed by the Iraqi Air Force?<br /><br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5XGkACfNiEAPatrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06415913167048615090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4871088750473093560.post-87635568718728776762014-06-11T18:01:35.303-07:002014-06-11T18:01:35.303-07:00Has all of Mosul been overrun/captured by the Sunn...Has all of Mosul been overrun/captured by the Sunni Insurgents? I don't/can't believe that has happened.<br /><br />I could see the insurgents taking the western side of Mosul (on the west side of the Tigris river) without to much trouble. The east side of Mosul (on the east side of the Tigris river) was heavily dominated by the Kurds and they would definitely put up a serious fight before losing ground. I would bet that most of the Iraqi Government Military Forces that got routed/folded were in western Mosul. Also, I would not be surprised if these forces simply bugged out to eastern Mosul or other Kurdish controlled areas to the east/northeast by crossing the bridges over the Tigris River to seek Kurdish protection.
