They were spreading in Iraq too, but were beaten back with US help starting in 2015.

Then there should be a lot of witnesses.

Weird, it's Dar es Salaam.
But no matter what you said, Kampala is probably one of the worst cities in Africa for traffic and rude behavior for queues. You (as a muzungu) won't experience it, but just watch locals push themselves onto a bus there, it's worse than Egypt.

Absolutely plain evil and disgusting how 2 beautiful young Scandinavian girls who travels to Morocco to explore the world are end up being brutally murdered by heartless and nasty young men showing on a video pledging to ISIS as the young girls are labeled “enemies of Allah” and killed for “the will of Allah”.

Very sad... we live in a sickening world.
Can't be true ,trump says we defeated ISIS .

ISIS is defeated, they hold no territory in either Syria or Iraq. These are some people in their basement pledging allegiance to a defeated organization.

Just like Nazis are defeated, but there are still people who call themselves Nazis in random countries.

Wasn't too hard to figure out.

Yes, that's what I said. It is an arabic name. Why is it weird?

They are not defeated. They still have an army of 30 000 terrorists in Syria/Iraq alone and a lot more elsewhere. They have been gaining strength lately, and now that they kicked US out of Syria there is no doubt they will grow rapidly.

You wrote Dar Es Salaam when it's Dar es Salaam. Subtle, small - but something I wouldn't expect a person who lived there 5 years to make. Which is why I said weird.

Please cite your sources and their methodology for those 30,000 members of ISIS in Syria.
