Wild boars overrun Islamic State position, kill 3 militants

John Bacon | USA TODAYUpdated 3:41 p.m. ET April 25, 2017

Three Islamic State militants setting up an ambush in a bitterly contested area of northern Iraq were killed by a herd of stampeding boars, local leaders say.

Sheikh Anwar al-Assi, a chief of the local Ubaid tribe and supervisor of anti-ISIS forces, told The Times of London the militants were hiding on the edge of a field about 50 miles southwest of Kirkuk when the boars overwhelmed them Sunday. Five other militants were injured, al-Assi said. He said the group was poised to attack a band of local tribesmen who had fled to nearby mountains since militants seized the town of Hawija three years ago.

“It is likely their movement disturbed a herd of wild pigs, which inhabit the area as well as the nearby cornfields,” he said.

Al-Assi said the militants had summarily executed 25 people attempting to flee the militant's would-be caliphate in the three days before the boars attacked. Hawija, about 100 miles south of Mosul, sees dozens of residents flee to Kurdish Kirkuk daily, and the Iraqi military has planned to launch an offensive in the region after a laborious effort to liberate Mosul is completed.

“We know that a massacre took place in Hawija district through our sources," al-Assi told the Times. "This will not be ISIS’s last massacre against citizens."

Talk about poetic justice!!!

a typical day of ISIS rule - we'll execute a few infidels since we're already here.

Iraq will never be the same after ISIS-it's a permanent terrorist sub-culture embedded

It was a sneak pig attack. That or they couldn't let their Muslim bullets touch the porkers.

Wild Boars: Our New Allies Against ISIS
By Tom Knighton April 27, 2017

Every now and then, something happens that lets you know the universe doesn't actively hate you. A break in a rainstorm just as you have to go to work, a snow day when you're sick but out of paid sick days, or wild boars mauling ISIS fighters:


Wild boars mauled three Islamic State (Isil) fighters to death near the Iraqi city of Kirkuk, according to Kurdish fighters.

The jihadists’ bodies were found badly mangled by refugees fleeing through farmland as they tried to get away from Isil territory in al-Rashad, southwest of the city.

Isil fighters responded to the deaths by going on a killing spree of wild boars in the area, said Brigadier Azad Jelal, the deputy head of the Kurdish intelligence service in Kikurk.

“Three fighters from Isil were near the Peshmerga checkpoint in al-Rashad. They met some feral boars and the boars killed the three fighters,” he told The Telegraph.

“Some refugees saw the bodies on the edge of a farm when they were fleeing and they told us. A few days later Isil started to kill pigs around the area.”

Brigadier Jelal said the three men may have been trying to defect from Isil and were trying to get near a Kurdish checkpoint to surrender. He said the refugees did not see any weapons with the bodies, suggesting they had come unarmed.


Of course, them defecting is mere speculation.

What we do know -- ISIS has a very strong anti-pig stance. Islam in general codifies animal abuse. It's particularly amusing that ISIS responded to the deaths by going on a "killing spree of wild boars in the area," as if a message needed to be sent to the local boar community.

It's time to have a ham sandwich, a cold beer, and to thank God that his creatures seem to dislike ISIS as much as we do. God Bless America.

they look pretty tough..I don't hunt, so I wouldn't know -but an automatic rifle should do it?

They weren't armed.

That's why they think they were trying to defect.
