The Turkish press is just reporting that the Iraqi army has made it through to Amerli - with the help of that air support, no doubt.

According to Aljazeera:

“Our correspondent also said that there have been unconfirmed reports that Iranian jets were also involved in bombing the Islamic State group.”

Waltzing Matilda is actually an English Song and Australian Troops made an adaptation of that song when they were marching into battle in the Boer War as a kind of shit stir against the poms! :lol:

Something to do with thieves and convicts and coming back to haunt the pretentious bastards.

Wouldn't surprise me at all.

There is certainly something going on in the background. I would be interested to find out where the RAAF has got all the Russian Weapons from.
