ISIS militants only fear one of the nations that opposes it, according to a journalist who
spent time living among them.
Although Russia,
France, the UK, the US and a host of other nations are pounding the militants
from the air and covertly on the ground with elite soldiers, Islamic State
fighters told Jürgen Todenhöfer, 75, that Israel is the one nation they are
wary of.
Mr Todenhöfer, who
spent 10 days in Syria in 2014, told Jewish News: "They think they can
defeat US and UK ground troops, who they say they have no experience in city
guerrilla or terrorist strategies.
"But they know the
Israelis are very tough as far as fighting against guerrillas and terrorists.
"They are not scared
of the British and the Americans, they are scared of the Israelis and told me
the Israeli army is the real danger."
