[cali]

Militants aligned with ISIS have launched a brutal offensive in Afghanistan alongside Taliban fighters that has left more than 100 people dead, local officials said Friday. Insurgents carrying the black flag of ISIS captured several villages in Ghazni province, according to Deputy Governor Ali Ahmad Ahmadi and Deputy Police Chief Gen. Asadullah Ensafi. Fifteen family members of local police officers were beheaded and at least 60 homes were set ablaze, Ahmadi said.

Members of the Taliban from different regions of the country were involved in the offensive, officials said. According to Ahmadi, the drive was being led masked men wearing camouflage who carried the black flag of the ISIS and openly called themselves soldiers of "Daesh" — another name for ISIS. The officials said those militants did not speak any local languages. Reinforcements from the Afghan national army and provincial police had been stopped from reaching the area by Taliban ambushes. Ahmadi said the army was preparing to send in commandos in an attempt to push back the militants.

6. The reality is that social media is the perfect platform for ISIS

to recruit and spread their propaganda.

As I mentioned in another thread, I noticed their unchecked proliferation on social media about eighteen months ago, before they were a big thing in the media.
