Is it just that I wasn’t paying close attention? It just seems oddly synchronistic that the past week we have been hearing about the threat posed by ISIS-K and then today we have the bombings that are blamed on them.

Or do I just have my tinfoil hat on a little too tightly?

Yeah, I never heard that until about three days ago. I guess it is the Kabul franchise or something.

This was all by design. Everything I've seen thus far leads me to the conclusion this administration did this on purpose knowing full well what the consequences would be. American blood is on all of their hands. Hang these traitors today.

It has all of the sweetness of ISIS, but zero calories.

It's the new "boogie man" to fear and pin the blame of this cluster phuck of epic proportions on...now, if I wasn't so lazy, I'd post the meme of Hillary in front of the Benghazi commission saying "what difference does it make?"

The term ISIS is divisive. He brings up thoughts of beheadings and terrorist attacks.

By taking a more loving term of ISIS-K, we hope those terrorists(sorry freedom warriors) feel more accepted.

They will try to call this the Kabul faction then blame Trump for saying they were gone.
It's the big libtard spin.

That would be because until two weeks ago, these guys were still in Afghan jails. The Taliban granted mass amnesty in every city they captured.

I just learned about Isis-K and the new pronunciation of Tolly Bohn.

As usual our intelligence services are experts on every organization or individual after they successfully carry out an attack.

What became the ISIS army Trump destroyed in Syria was the group known as AQ in Iraq that we fought the Iraq war. They were the remnants left out of that war. We killed the leader of AQ in Iraq before the war ended and then the guy that Trump killed took charge and reconstituted in parts of Iraq and Syria. After a couple of name changes they became known as ISIS. ISISK is a bunch of former Taliban guys that thought the Taliban was to moderate and broke off to join ISIS and swore allegiance to they guy Trump killed that was head of ISIS.

They have been operating in Afghanistan for quite a while.

I fought against them there in 2017.

This.

Google "ISIS-K" within the timeframe of 2017-2018. You'll see plenty of mentions of them.

That’s their strike team. It’s a step above their JV squad according to Obama.
