  Is that because you think ISIS should not be fought militarily, or because you think tactically a ground strike would be a better approach, or what?

    I think it's more the flip tone of the message.

    Maybe something to do with the location being in the middle of a city full of civilians.

      It would indeed be the perfect weapon for a terrorist. Just post a picture of something on the Internet and have foreign military blast it to the ground. Create terror and blame americans, and anyone can do it.

    Do you really expect someone with the authority to make a strike is going to post about it on the internet?

    Because ISIS probably isn't there anymore.

Crowdsourcing military actions? How repulsive.

Why would you plan an airstrike and destroy a major highway because ISIS took a picture of themselves there?

  If you read the end of the article you saw large amounts of construction around the training camp.

    This is what I was thinking, but then I got downvoted to hell. Understandable, there are innocent civilians and children around - most brainwashed by ISIS. But, it looks like these training camps seem to stay close to the river - as seen in the Vice documentary, "The Islamic State" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzCAPJDAnQA#t=160 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzCAPJDAnQA#t=160

My apologies everyone - it was a facetious and tasteless remark, and my poor attempt at being funny, while being sarcastic at the same time.
