Yep, the US and Iran are so stubborn, Iraq is playing the peace-keeping intermediary. Let that sink in...

Just to add to the irony, the Iranian jets in the photo that are being used to bomb ISIL are American-made F4 Phantoms.

In more 'Muslim-on-ISIS' news, Iran have, acting independently of the coalition, started bombing ISIS.

Still it's a pretty small story sir.

Even The New York Times mention called it a super secret organization. And just from the name and alternate names they don't exactly sound like a group looking to instill Jeffersonian democracy. I'm glad someone is standing up to Isis but remember there were people standing up to Kadafi who were no better.

I would like to see it become a big story that leads to more people like them signing up to fight Isis. As for the name, I'd hesitate to draw conclusions from it. This I think is more telling. Quoted from the story:

"Eighty per cent of the members of White Shroud did not take part in combat before (Islamic State) came. We trained them and they joined White Shroud because of the great oppression they felt after Islamic State took control,"

As for democracy, I think expectations must be tempered. Non-extremist dictators are preferable to religious zealots. Further insights about the group are here (apparently there are many others).

Probably because most of the incendiary articles are covered in greater detail by certain news organizations.

The bias of the mainstream media is more subtle. One can count the number of articles about this story or that story look to see how many are favorable neutral or unfavorable and see where it is.

There, fixed. 🙂 American mainstream media is not about reporting facts, it is about projecting a narrative that supports a particular agenda.

Things that get posted here don't tend to be from mainstream sites, the only ones I'd really heard of outside are Fox, HuffPost and NBC. CBS?

Really? I thought they were. Who would you classify as mainstream then?

I would classify the mainstream media as the major newspapers and the three major networks. Fox News and MSNBC seem to be alternatives to thee network stranglehold.

I did a search and included the names Fox and MSNBC with no hits.

Odd.

I wouldn't be surprised if isis has enemies who are just as unsavory but still I think this is newsworthy.
