US-led airstrikes blew up a stadium filled with ISIS' explosives, weapons, and ammunition


From Business Insider:
US-led coalition airstrikes against the Islamic State (aka ISIS, ISIL, and Daesh) on Tuesday destroyed a key supply hub near the Iraqi city of Ramadi — a stadium stocked with "homemade explosives, weapons and ammunition as well as VBIED [Vehicle Borne Improvised Explosive Device] components." 
US Central Command said Wednesday that ISIS used the stadium as "a base of operations to control fighters across the Ramadi region, and as a central node for lethal aid funneled down the Euphrates River Valley." 
The coalition statement also claimed the destruction of this stadium will significantly disrupt ISIS' ability to conduct operations and resupply fighters in Ramadi and throughout Iraq and Syria.

Considering the mounting evidence that the current administration is doctoring intelligence, suppressing evidence, misleading Congress, manipulating the media, and generally falsifying or obfuscating...

I don't believe a word of this.

It does sound too good to be true.

Especially considering the fact that no matter what we supposedly do, ISIS continues forward with success after success.

Right.

Obama admin ordered the media to stop showing pictures of ISIS parades of Toyota Hilux vehicles through areas they control because it was giving American viewers the impression that ISIS was succeeding. The networks quickly obeyed and stopped showing the footage.
