The troops were surrounded by approximately 50 ISIS militants yesterday close to Mosul in Northern Iraq as they had just withdrawn from an intelligence gathering mission, according to the Daily Star. In the ambush, soldiers fatally shot several militants before their ammunition ran out and they were forced to use their guns as battering rams, knives, wit and brute strength to defeat the enemy. One man even drowned an ISIS fighter in a puddle before picking up a stone which he smashed into another man's face. Sources told the Daily Star that they were convinced they were going to die in the battle, so they chose to 'go out fighting' in the hope that they would kill as many ISIS fighters as possible before they died.

If the story is accurate, Kudos to the SAS, anytime ISIS can be taken out, then it's a good day, no matter the means-

"Fuck you, I'm Millwall!"
SAS- "Hold my pint." Good on ya Gent's! |

If true, my first thought is how are they going on a mission that poorly equipped?

Badass mofo's.
32 dead? Hand to hand? I don't reckon the goat fuckers are too savvy without their weapons, but closing the distance would have a pucker factor of 10 without any ammo. |

Everybody wants to be a radical terrorist until it's time to do Special Forces shit.

Bad Motherfuckers right there. The guy who drowned one and beat the other to death with a rock sounds like a guy i want to party with...

The SAS are legit.
I've read on here many members who've worked with them directly saying they are awesome. I have not, obviously, but they are one of the few SF outside of our own that has my full respect. That's a great story. Excellent job Brits. |

From what I can see, the Brits don't have a testosterone shortage, they have a testosterone distribution problem.
A few thousand or so blokes are soaking up a the whole country's worth. |

If the SAS were out of ammo and throwing rocks and stabbing, why wouldnt the ISIS fighter stay 30 yards back and dump lead. Why go hand to hand when you have an AK? Me smells a lot of BS.

More positive coverage in Allied press for the destruction of ISIS.
Now that Mattis is in annihilation beast mode everyone want to come on in for the Big Win. |

Alot of these stories are tabloid but "Who Dares Wins" View Quote You must realize this action goes against every progressive social construct. Run, hide, cower, die is the mantra of liberals. Big Brother MSM won't print an article that shows the British people how to conduct themselves when faced with intiment death. |

Yeah.... that didn't actually happen. There is a thread about once a month on the latest made up tale of SAS heroics in the war against IS. And all of it is shit you would see in crappy action movie. |
