And as a followup of my Syria post last night, WaPo reports that ISIS (the main AQ front in Syria) has, for at least now, captured the Iraqi city ofFallujah and is threatening Ramadi. Although their hold on Fallujah is not secure yet this is further evidence that AQ affiliated groups are succeeding at creating an Islamic caliphate out of portions of the failed states in Syria and Iraq.
