Hunting the Caliphate: America´s War on ISIS and the Dawn of the Strike Cell , Hörbuch, Digital, 1, 635min

In this vivid first-person narrative, a Special Operations Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC) and his commanding general give fascinating and detailed accounts of America´s fight against one of the most barbaric insurgencies the world has ever seen. In the summer of 2014, three years after America´s full troop withdrawal from the Iraq War, President Barack Obama authorized a small task force to push back into Baghdad. Their mission: protect the Iraqi capital and US embassy from a rapidly emerging terrorist threat. A plague of brutality, that would come to be known as ISIS, had created a foothold in northwest Iraq and northeast Syria. It had declared itself a Caliphate - an independent nation-state administered by an extreme and cruel form of Islamic law - and was spreading like a newly evolved virus. Soon, a massive and devastating US military response had unfolded. Hear the ground truth on the senior military and political interactions that shaped America´s war against ISIS, a war unprecedented in both its methodology and its application of modern military technology. 1.
