‘Moron’ takes a selfie in front of ISIS HQ, Air Force bombs it 22hrs later

[RandomGuy]

Apparently, looks can kill. In a very real story that we assure you did not originate from The Onion, a terrorist from ISIS recently took a selfie of himself and posted it online.

Shortly thereafter, U.S. Intelligence, which heavily monitors social media accounts from ISIS members and supporters, managed to pinpoint an ISIS headquarters building in Syria by using the selfie photo as a reference point.

According to Air Force General Hawk Carlisle (which is a perfect name for an Air Force General we must say), airmen from Hurlburt Field, Florida in the 361st Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance Group were the first to pick up on the photo.

“The guys that were working down out of Hurlburt, they’re combing through social media and they see some moron standing at this command,”Carlisle said in an interview with Defense Tech. “And in some social media, open forum, bragging about the command and control capabilities for Daesh, ISIL. And these guys go: ‘We got an in.’ So they do some work, long story short, about 22 hours later through that very building, three [Joint Direct Attack Munitions] take that entire building out.”

Q. As much as we are loving this, why does US military allow US media to blab?
Why not continue to let ISIS dumbfuck do stuff like this?
Don't announce to them how it was done.

Damn right it is. If shit is going down we should know about it.

You're an ideological čunt. There's zero benefit to us hearing about shit like this other than some entertaining reading. This is the one area I stray from libertarians. Shut the fuck up and let the military, CIA, and even the big bad evil NSA do what they do.

I kind of feel the same way, but one would think ISIS could put together the facebook angle.

Ummm, they leaked it to the press.

It's done intentionally to stir chatter, to bring out people who were silent. Higher ups will get involved and the traffic will be better than these low level faggots. The US already knew where they were, don't let this story fool you. No one bombs a country based on a facebook pic.

When a military publication is involved, it's a coordinated effort.

[SupremeGuy]

That's awesome, tbh. :lol

OPSEC.

Good point though. Probably just too good not to put out there. Also probably won't be the last time some dumbass 20 year old does something stupid on the battlefield.

I don't see many of the ISIS fighters surviving long enough to become combat veterans.
