carrying weapons for the ISIL terrorists in Al-Anbar province, a

"The
Iraqi Parliament's National Security and Defense Committee has access
to the photos of both planes that are British and have crashed while
they were carrying weapons for the ISIL," Head of the committee
Hakem al-Zameli said, according to a Monday report of the
Arabic-language information center of the Islamic Supreme Council of
Iraq.
He
said the Iraqi parliament has asked London for explanations in this
regard.
The
senior Iraqi legislator further unveiled that the government in
Baghdad is receiving daily reports from people and security forces in
al-Anbar province on numerous flights by the US-led coalition planes
that airdrop weapons and supplies for ISIL in terrorist-held areas.
The
Iraqi lawmaker further noted the cause of such western aids to the
terrorist group, and explained that the US prefers a chaotic
situation in Anbar Province which is near the cities of Karbala and
Baghdad as it does not want the ISIL crisis to come to an end.
Earlier
today, a senior Iraqi provincial official lashed out at the western
countries and their regional allies for supporting Takfiri terrorists
in Iraq, revealing that US and Israeli-made weapons have been
discovered from the areas purged of ISIL terrorists.
"We
have discovered weapons made in the US, European countries and Israel
from the areas liberated from ISIL's control in Al-Baqdadi region,"
the Al-Ahad news website quoted Head of Al-Anbar Provincial Council
Khalaf Tarmouz as saying.
He
noted that the weapons made by the European countries and Israel were
discovered from the terrorists in the Eastern parts of the city of
Ramadi.
Al-Zameli
had also disclosed in January that the anti-ISIL coalition's planes
have dropped weapons and foodstuff for the ISIL in Salahuddin,
Al-Anbar and Diyala provinces.
Al-Zameli
underlined that the coalition is the main cause of ISIL's survival
in Iraq.
"There
are proofs and evidence for the US-led coalition's military aid to
ISIL terrorists through air(dropped cargoes)," he told FNA in
January.
He
noted that the members of his committee have already proved that the
US planes have dropped advanced weaponry, including anti-aircraft
weapons, for the ISIL, and that it has set up an investigation
committee to probe into the matter.
"The
US drops weapons for the ISIL on the excuse of not knowing about the
whereabouts of the ISIL positions and it is trying to distort the
reality with its allegations.
He
noted that the committee had collected the data and the evidence
provided by eyewitnesses, including Iraqi army officers and the
popular forces, and said, "These documents are given to the
investigation committee ... and the necessary measures will be taken
to protect the Iraqi airspace."
Also
in January, another senior Iraqi legislator reiterated that the
US-led coalition is the main cause of ISIL's survival in Iraq.
"The
international coalition is only an excuse for protecting the ISIL and
helping the terrorist group with equipment and weapons," Jome
Divan, who is member of the al-Sadr bloc in the Iraqi parliament,
said.
He
said the coalition's support for the ISIL is now evident to everyone,
and continued, "The coalition has not targeted ISIL's main
positions in Iraq."
In
late December, Iraqi Parliamentary Security and Defense Commission MP
disclosed that a US plane supplied the ISIL terrorist organization
with arms and ammunition in Salahuddin province.
MP
Majid al-Gharawi stated that the available information pointed out
that US planes are supplying ISIL organization, not only in
Salahuddin province, but also other provinces, Iraq TradeLink
reported.
He
added that the US and the international coalition are "not
serious in fighting against the ISIL organization, because they have
the technological power to determine the presence of ISIL gunmen and
destroy them in one month".
Gharawi
added that "the US is trying to expand the time of the war
against the ISIL to get guarantees from the Iraqi government to have
its bases in Mosul and Anbar provinces."
Salahuddin
security commission also disclosed that "unknown planes threw
arms and ammunition to the ISIL gunmen Southeast of Tikrit city".
Also
in Late December, a senior Iraqi lawmaker raised doubts about the
seriousness of the anti-ISIL coalition led by the US, and said that
the terrorist group still received aids dropped by unidentified
aircraft.
"The
international coalition is not serious about air strikes on ISIL
terrorists and is even seeking to take out the popular (voluntary)
forces from the battlefield against the Takfiris so that the problem
with ISIL remains unsolved in the near future," Nahlah al-Hababi
told FNA.
"The
ISIL terrorists are still receiving aids from unidentified fighter
jets in Iraq and Syria," she added.
Hababi
said that the coalition's precise airstrikes are launched only in
those areas where the Kurdish Pishmarga forces are present, while
military strikes in other regions are not so much precise.
In
late December, the US-led coalition dropped aids to the Takfiri
militants in an area North of Baghdad.
Field
sources in Iraq told al-Manar that the international coalition
airplanes dropped aids to the terrorist militants in Balad, an area
which lies in Salahuddin province North of Baghdad.
In
October, a high-ranking Iranian commander also slammed the US for
providing aid supplies to ISIL, adding that the US claims that the
weapons were mistakenly airdropped to ISIL were untrue.
“The
US and the so-called anti-ISIL coalition claim that they have
launched a campaign against this terrorist and criminal group - while
supplying them with weapons, food and medicine in Jalawla region (a
town in Diyala Governorate, Iraq). This explicitly displays the
falsity of the coalition's and the US' claims,” Deputy Chief of
Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces Brigadier General Massoud Jazayeri
said.
The
US claimed that it had airdropped weapons and medical aid to Kurdish
fighters confronting the ISIL in Kobani, near the Turkish border in
Northern Syria.
The
US Defense Department said that it had airdropped 28 bundles of
weapons and supplies, but one of them did not make it into the hands
of the Kurdish fighters.
Video
footage later showed that some of the weapons that the US airdropped
were taken by ISIL militants.
The
Iranian commander insisted that the US had the necessary intelligence
about ISIL's deployment in the region and that their claims to have
mistakenly airdropped weapons to them are as unlikely as they are
untrue.

“The
Iraqi Parliament’s National Security and Defense Committee has
access to the photos of both planes that are British and have crashed
while they were carrying weapons for the ISIL,” Head of the
committee Hakem al-Zameli said, according to the Arabic-language
information center of the Islamic Supreme Council of Iraq.
The
incident was reported by foreign and alternative media but not
mentioned by the establishment media in the U.S. Europe.
Hakem
al-Zameli, a senior Iraqi legislator, added that the current
government in Baghdad is receiving daily reports from security forces
in al-Anbar province about flights airdropping weapons to ISIS.
He
said the U.S. wants to promote chaos in Iraq and does this by
supporting the Islamic State.
Other
Iraqi lawmakers are complaining about the situation.
“We
have discovered weapons made in the US, European countries and Israel
from the areas liberated from ISIL’s control in Al-Baqdadi region,”
the al-Ahad news website quoted the head of the al-Anbar Provincial
Council Khalaf Tarmouz as saying.
Weapons
made in Europe and Israel were also discovered in Ramadi, Tarmouz
said.
“The
US drops weapons for the ISIL on the excuse of not knowing about the
whereabouts of the ISIL positions and it is trying to distort the
reality with its allegations,” he said.
In
December Iranian state media claimed U.S. military aircraft dropped
weapons in areas held by the Islamic State for a second time.
Iraqi
volunteers fighting against IS in the Yathrib and Balad districts in
Iraq’s Salahuddin Province reported the air drops.
Iraq
claims it now has the upper hand in the battle to regain territory
from the terrorist group.
In
October a purported errant airdrop of weapons fell into the hands
Islamic State fighters outside Kobani in Syria.
In
November Iraqi intelligence sources said the U.S. is actively
supplying ISIS with weapons.
“The
Iraqi intelligence sources reiterated that the US military planes
have airdropped several aid cargoes for ISIL terrorists to help them
resist the siege laid by the Iraqi army, security and popular
forces,” a report stated.
“What
is important is that the US sends these weapons to only those that
cooperate with the Pentagon and this indicates that the US plays a
role in arming the ISIL.”
In
July, Infowars.com reported on the large amount of U.S. weapons
captured by ISIS.
In
addition to combat ground vehicles and artillery previously acquired
from the Iraqi military, the trove taken form U.S. bases included
more than 50 155mm M-198 artillery batteries and 4,000 PKC machine
guns.
The
acquisition of sophisticated weapons converted ISIS from a terrorist
group into an army capable of waging conventional war in Iraq and
Syria.
