You can wonder why they don't use the army instead of underarmed police officers to fight radical islamistic militias.

I found a video that seems to be of some Turk special forces ending some brave feminist warriors but im not sure if it would count as gore if i posted a link...

you mean that execution video where our guys shoot them and then throw them from some mountain? its pretty common knowledge now
they arent special forces btw, regular mountain foot soldiers

CAIRO (Reuters) - At least 52 Egyptian police and conscripts were killed and six more wounded in a gun battle on Friday during a raid on a suspected militant hideout in the western desert, three security sources said.
Sources had said late on Friday at least 30 police were killed. Egypt is battling an Islamist insurgency concentrated in the Sinai peninsula from two main groups, including an Islamic State affiliate, that has killed hundreds of security forces since 2013.
The interior ministry released a statement on the operation on Friday but has so far not given any details on casualties. At least 23 police officers were killed and the other victims were conscripts, the sources said.
Security sources on Friday said authorities were following a lead to a militant camp in the desert where eight suspected members of Hasm Movement were believed to be hiding. The group has claimed attacks around Cairo targeting judges and police.
A convoy of four SUVs and one interior ministry vehicle was ambushed from higher ground by militants firing rocket-propelled grenades and detonating explosive devices, one senior security source said.
Militants are mostly fighting in remote northern Sinai where the Ansar Bayt al-Maqdis group pledged allegiance to Islamic State in 2014. Attacks mostly hit police and armed forces, but militants have also targeted Egypt’s Christians and tourists.

>conscripts Kids who play soldiers.
They should use trained soldiers, not freshly trained conscripts
Jackson Foster
Conscripts are trained soldiers, dingaling.

In Egypt? I believe their training ends at "don't touch scorpion ok"

Depends on the country

First pics comming from Omar oil fields

On Friday, ISIS fighters withdrew from the strategic Omar oil fields in the southeastern Deir Ezzor countryside after planting dozens of IEDs and mines inside them, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) reported.
The report added that ISIS withdrew after the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) captured Dhiban village west of the Omar oil field. The SOHR also said that Russian airstrikes on ISIS positions inside the oil fields played a key role in the ISIS decision to withdrew from them.
Moreover, some Syrian pro-government activists reported that the SAA already captured the oil fields. However, these claims are not confirmed yet.
Meanwhile, Syrian opposition sources claimed that the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) are also advancing towards the Omar oil fields. According to the sources, the SDF is now in only 8km from the oil fields. Due to the large size of the oil fields, the SDF might capture a part of it, even if the SAA captures the main oil facilities.
If the SAA captures the Omar oil fields, the tension between it and the SDF will likely decrease. However, there is no doubt that bad relations between the SAA and SDF will be one of the main issues in the post-ISIS era
Conscripts in Scandinavia isn't the same as Conscripts in egypt.
Josiah Gomez
You have Google in Finland? You should Google 'conscript'. Giving a man boots and a rifle does not a trained soldier make. Maybe your people are just better at conscripting.
Parker Phillips
>does not a trained soldier make
Asher Flores
He should have said >your dole dippers, madame Before he dole dipped her

We have a conscript military, m88.

I've just realised Baathism is Arab National Socialism.
Noah Rodriguez
Merge it with Hitler's Free Arab Legion (no turk rape babies) and you'll get the perfect mix and immediately rape Israel to death
Bentley Bennett
conscript training is shitty and proves nothing. in real fire fight it turns into all psychological and the more war hardened soldier will stay alive with a higher chance of probability.
i d like to see finnish conscripts in real war, i am pretty sure they ll die like flies like any other conscript. thats why there is a terminology called "professional" soldiers, whos job is to go die in war for the country's interest. now they get different and constant tranining and other side stuff.
Joshua Morris
didnt saddam left over baath generals and shit build isis ?
Charles King
If Rommel had pushed through Egypt, he would've stopped Israel in its infancy

After some searching I came across a Chinese opium cultivating board with more pics of the IDF soldier in your picture. One of the pics had a watermark with the name Mike Mor, an Israeli based photographer. I've found the name of the girl on his site, her name is Maya Segev.
conscript military in Finland wouldn't be used in a armed conflict unless it was the last resort. There's a big difference between conscripts and well trained career soldiers.
Brody Murphy
No you dumb roach. Israel and the US made it And kill the bong soldiers who were annexing Palestina!
Some baath generals joined because they wanted to continue fighting
William Russell
That's nice, but basically irrelevant to this general.
Austin Brown
>i d like to see finnish conscripts in real war, i am pretty sure they ll die like flies like any other conscript. Well, you'd be wrong there, since "any other conscript" at this time is mainly third world shits.
>unless it was the last resort. No. The military will be used in any situation that requires military action on Finnish soil. Foreign operations are volunteer only. There's even a new 24/7 readiness unit solely for Crimea type scenarios.
>Well, you'd be wrong there, since "any other conscript" at this time is mainly third world shits. excuse trains dont have breaks senpai
Colton Smith
Military source to me : IS is digging tunnels and trenches like sex-starved rabbits in their last stronghold, which will be de facto their last stand in plain military terms, of Abu Kamal and alQaim aglomeration
Brandon Cruz
Excuse train, what? You can't make a honest comparison between first world conscripts and third world ones. There's an entire world of difference between the two.
Jace Ross
>in real fire fight it turns into all psychological and the more war hardened soldier will stay alive with a higher chance of probability. It's true that in terms of efficiency battle-hardened soldiers have much more chance of staying alive, than those who only had training and were never shot at but >i d like to see finnish conscripts in real war, i am pretty sure they ll die like flies like any other conscript It's not true, because compared to shitholes with conscription all over the world they're fairly skilled and proficient with the equipment.
Mason Nguyen
there arent. they are all just kids given guns and playing soldiers.
Lincoln Sanders
Did you skip your conscription or something, or is Turkish military training really that poor?
Jayden Robinson
>opens JFK files >the only thing he finds are boxes upon boxes of dole dippers
Andrew Bennett
Lad, compare even numbers of rounds shot in Finland and your country during conscription, also general knowledge of logistics, communications, your own equipment, survival tactics, battle tactics. It's completely different level.
Gabriel Butler
my dad was artillery crew during his conscription and sort of knows artillery but still, hes no where near an actual career soldier trained for this shit. no one is.
proficiency with equipment is not an issue at all anyways, it probably takes a day to get used to your gun if you manage to stay alive.
David Flores
Dont really care for this girl but not bad work I guess, you can manipulate the image URLs to get bigger versions
Wyatt Cruz
Altho I must add that obviously a random Afgan Shia jihadi will be worth much more after three or four real engagements than even the best trained conscript
Chase Sanchez
We did field exercises with laser weapons for a week. I was sitting in tank all time and "died" every day. But we won against the Dutch. We attacked and they defended.
Justin Roberts
lol no
Asher Howard
We're talking 2 different things. Conscript in for example Finland probably shots some 10000 bullets during his training, while in for example Egypt it's maybe a few magazines. And now different thing, see
Luis Perez
where did this meme come from?
Jose Adams
>The self-immolater of Al Bab is talking shit about other countries conscripts
I'd take 10 conscripted Finns over 100 conscripted Turks
Gabriel Butler
i d like to see finnish conscripts in battle really.
there is a reason why turkey doesnt send conscripts to mountains to battle pkk, but instead we send career soldiers. there is a reason why USA sent career soldiers to iraq, afghanistan etc.
last time USA sent conscripts to a war (vietnam), conscripts got #rekt pretty hard.
1st or 10th world doenst have an effect on basic psychology, if anything, 3rd world countries have better conscripts because they are have nothing to lose in their life so they are probably much more brave.
Luis Bailey
>hes no where near an actual career soldier trained for this shit. no one is. How do you know that? Have you ever seen American professional soldiers, how they act, how they fuck things up? There's nothing special about being a professional soldier, unless you're talking about SOF.
Cameron Butler
>do a huge al-bab operation >only 70 turkish soldiers die >most of them because of russian/syrian "friendly fire" pretty good job desu
letting a conscript shoot 10000 bullets is a waste desu as if hes going to see any war any time in his life.
as i said, kids with guns.
Blake Jenkins
I can pinpoint to most cities and large towns in syria literally because of /sg/
Blake Turner
>i d like to see finnish conscripts in battle really. So would I, to be honest. >there is a reason why turkey doesnt send conscripts to mountains to battle pkk, but instead we send career soldiers. there is a reason why USA sent career soldiers to iraq, afghanistan etc. Because it's politically very harmful and unfeasible. Sending conscripts to die for some bullshit political cause. You pointed out Vietnam and that's exactly what professional soldiers are for. For deploying on foreign soil for politics. >1st or 10th world doenst have an effect on basic psychology, if anything, 3rd world countries have better conscripts because they are have nothing to lose in their life so they are probably much more brave. Hah. Have you been following this war? Seeing militia and conscripts running into the desert when a single attack starts? It's the same everywhere. Disorganized units with poor leadership will rout unless they're fanatics like ISIS.
Adam Hernandez
the turk is right. finland stfu
Chase Gray
What do I daydream about joining now that ISIS is finished?
