VICE News: What It's Really Like to Fight for the Islamic State
VICE News has obtained footage taken from the headcam of an Islamic State (IS) fighter who died in March while battling Kurdish peshmerga troops in northern Iraq. The clash took place about 30 miles north of Mosul.
Unlike IS propaganda, which often presents sweeping battlefield victories, the video shows chaos, panic, and the fighters retreating.

WNU Editor: A fascinating video. A must see.
Excellent footage aright...
