[QUOTE=hatred;49519188]Do you know how to use google?[/QUOTE]
Why yes, and if you use Google you will find such reputable news sources as the Daily Mail, the Daily Caller, New Indian Express, the Economic Times of India, Iraqi News, and International Business Times (who, to their credit, write "Isis [i]reportedly[/i] burns Daesh fighters alive").
And they all cite Fox.
Military defeat? Kill all your remaining forces and fuck all your chances of getting it back.
I'm glad these guys are dull cunts, and I'm sure the Iraqi/US leadership out there are, too.
[QUOTE=dai;49519845]suicide bombers know they're making an effect, a few foot soldiers who are backed into a hopeless corner aren't exactly in a moment of glory and notoriety.

And yet there are a hundred cultures that say it's more honorable to die in defeat than to retreat. Look at all of Japan's history, for example.
For Islamic fundamentalists, dying in battle isn't for glory or notoriety. It's to please god by becoming a martyr. In fact, I'm sure hoping for glory and notoriety is the exact opposite of what they wish and encourage.

Every military has this. In some you die for your god, in some you die for your people, in some you die for your country.
