[HOT NEWS] VIDEO PROPHECY ALERT- Iran Strikes ISIS In Iraq - Dec 04, 2014 BAGHDAD — Iranian fighter jets struck extremist targets in Iraq recently, Iranian and American officials have confirmed, in the latest display of Tehran’s new willingness to conduct military operations openly on foreign battlefields rather than covertly and through proxies. The shift stems in part from Iran’s deepening military role in Iraq in the war against the Sunni extremists of the Islamic State. But it also reflects a profound change in Iran’s strategy, stepping from the shadows into a more overt use of hard power as it promotes Shiite influence around the region. Iranian and Pentagon officials acknowledged that Iran had stepped up its military operations in Iraq last week, using 1970s-era fighter jets to bomb targets in a buffer zone that extends 25 miles into Iraq.

Amid Mutual Suspicion, Turkish Premier Visits Iraq NOV. 20, 2014 The new military approach highlights an unusual confluence of interests in both Iraq and Syria, where Tehran and Washington find themselves fighting the same enemy in an increasingly public fashion. While there is no direct coordination between Iraq and the United States, there is a de facto nonaggression pact that neither side is eager to acknowledge. “We are flying missions over Iraq, we coordinate with the Iraqi government as we conduct those,” Rear Adm. John F. Kirby, the Pentagon spokesman, said Tuesday. “It’s up to the Iraqi government to de-conflict that airspace.” For months, Iran has flashed its military prowess around the region. It has offered weapons to the Lebanese Army and supported the Shiite Houthi rebels in Yemen who have taken over the capital, Sana, where a car bomb struck the Iranian ambassador’s residence on Wednesday. In Syria, Hezbollah, the Iranian-supported Shiite militant movement, and the Iranian paramilitary Al Quds force, have kept President Bashar al-Assad in power. And in Iraq, Iran’s once-elusive spymaster, Maj. Gen. Qassim Suleimani, the commander of the Quds force who has spent a career in the shadows orchestrating terrorist attacks — including some that killed American soldiers in Iraq — has emerged as a public figure, with pictures of him on Iraq’s battlefields popping up on social media. war, politics, news, middle east, ISIS, ISL, Iraq, Syria, Coalition of the Willing, Jihadist, Beheadings, Al-Qaeda, Caliphate, Sunni, Shia, Muslim, Islam, kurdish fighters, kurdish female state, Attack, War, Shoot Down, Syria, Military, US isis, Shootout, France Military, islamic state, US, Military, Strikes, Military, Defense, Weapons, Rocket, (Product Category), Iraq (Country), Islamic State Of Iraq And Syria (Organization), war in iraq, war in syria, anti isis, Syria (Country), People's Protection Units (Organization), Kurds (Ethnicity), Tank (Invention), Tank Destroye Military, Defense, Weapons, Tank (Invention), Kurdistan (Statistical Region), Kurds (Ethnicity), Kurdistan, Russia Today, ISIS, ISIS interview, ISIS miltant, Maria Finoshina, Jihad (Religious Practice), Islam, Ancaman ISIS, Timur Tengah, Warga Indonesia, Video ISIS, jihad suriah, jihad syiria, perang akhir zaman, imam mahdi, kemunculan dajjal, kekejaman syiah, syiah sesat, ISIS, Kekejaman ISIS, Jonah Tomb, Iraq, Isis Violence, Tomb oh Jonah, ISIS, Iraq, Allepo, fallujah, torture, ISIL, baghdad, iraq war, Iraq War (Military Conflict), Islamic State Of Iraq And Syria Organization), islamic state of syria and the levant, levant, syrian civil war, kurds, kurdish, kurdistan, journeyman pictures, documentary, news, current affairs, world news, ISIS Iraq, ISIS Indonesia, ISIS VS al nusra, ISIS Syam, ISIS Sniper, ISIS Mujahid, ISIS 2014, ISIS Youtube, ISIS Video, ISIS War, ISIS Fighters isis, isil, kurds, peshmerga, kobane, syria, iraq, turkey, iran, usa, us army, uk, britain, australia, israel, Islamic State Of Iraq And Syria (Organization), Kurdistan Workers' Party (Organization), Guerrilla Warfare (Literature Subject), women fighting isis, women fighters, pkk, isis, is, isil, kurds, turkey, kurdistan, ypg, ypj, iraq, syria, iran, usa, us army, canada, australia, france, germany, denmark, norge, sverige,
