Iraqi Shia Isis Terrorist regime's military is trying to control the border between Syria and Kurdistan

The Iraqi army moved late at night on October 21, from Rabbia and Zumar to the Sehayla region in Iraq near to the Syrian border. This is a move to retake control from Peshmerga of the entire Syrian border all the way to Turkey. Peshmerga has orders to remain in their positions, ie, not withdraw. This increases the risk for war. If Iraqi forces succeed in controlling the entire border of Syria, it will complete what is referred to as the "Shia Crescent." This would open the route from Iran through Shingal, Iraq, then into Syria, and on to Lebanon.
