"Three Islamic State militants setting up an ambush in a bitterly contested area of northern Iraq were killed by a herd of stampeding boars, local leaders say.

Sheikh Anwar al-Assi, a chief of the local Ubaid tribe and supervisor of anti-ISIS forces, told The Times of London the militants were hiding on the edge of a field about 50 miles southwest of Kirkuk when the boars overwhelmed them Sunday. Five other militants were injured, al-Assi said.

”It is likely their movement disturbed a herd of wild pigs, which inhabit the area as well as the nearby cornfields," he said."

Man, sometimes real life can even put "The Onion" to shame.

 

[Zubz]

It's easy to forget how easily a boar could kill a person until something like this happens.

 

[FeenixRising]

I guess that quest to kill 50 boars went badly

 

[Crimson_Gold]

Nature strikes back

 

[Count Dookkake]

I would watch a CG movie about this.

Pixar's War Pigs

 

[rpmurphy]

Watch out for the demon boar curse.

 

[Hazmat]

That'll do, pig.

 

[Twilight Gap]

So how much did those Boars cost US taxpayers

 

[Jenov]

[Hypron]

I looked up the wikipedia page for Wild boars

In Eastern Europe, large males can reach brown bear-like sizes, weighing 270 kg (600 lb) and measuring 110–118 cm (43–46 in) in shoulder height. Some adult males in Ussuriland and Manchuria have been recorded to weigh 300–350 kg (660–770 lb) and measure 125 cm (49 in) in shoulder height.

Damn I didn't know these animals could get that big

 

[lastplayed]

Richard III had the superior beast on his banner

 

[| Praxis |]

Feel sorry for the boars. No animal deserves to eat shit.

 

[jelly]

I wonder if they ate them like that Hannibal film.

 

[Pinko Marx]

That'll do, pig.

Stole me post ya hoser.

 

[caliph95]

[Cpt.Underpants]

So this pigs gore you to death or bite you?

 

[FuturusX]

That's some good prime meat...

 

[gutter_trash]

Y’all got jokes, huh?

 

[Stinkles]

Let me guess. This time it wasn't God's will but if it had been Americans etc that would have definitely been god.

 

[Got]

uhm... Irony

[Dubbedinenglish]

So this pigs gore you to death or bite you?

Look up some pictures of the Carpathian Boar, they do indeed get Brown Bear sized.

 

[You Are Viewtiful]

[Shaanyboi]

[Frozenprince]

That technically makes their deaths Haram doesn't it?

 

[AnotherDayAnotherDollar]

Wild boars are no joke. Aggressive, easily weigh 300+lbs, built like a tank, thick skin and skull, and razor sharp tusks that will cut you up.

 

[F0rneus]

If I believed in God, then there is no better message for these pieces of shit than this.

 

[javac]

That technically makes their deaths Haram doesn't it?

Absolutely.

 

[meppi]

Gore

 

[caliph95]

Instead of 72 virgins they only get 18 virgins

 

[Guevara]

Hard not to take that as a sign.

Suidae
Pork is haram (forbidden) to eat, because its essence is considered impure, this is based on the verse of the Qur'an where it is described as "Rijs" (impure) .Quran 6:145

LOL

 

[Epcott]

I guess they really couldn't take pork after all.

Spoiler

Militants killed by Legion...

 

[HarryKS]

There is a movie with a giant boar beast no?

Razorback.

 

[Beartruck]

Well, the muslim faith says pork is bad for you right? Lol.

I'm just wondering if being ingested by the pig is Haram lol. It's an interesting technicality.

 

[Nekofrog]

Growing up I was taught don't mess with two animals: geese and wild boar. They'll fuck your shit up fam

 

[SgtCobra]

The ManBearPig strikes back.

 

[Aki-at]

Allah shall strike you die with an army of... um... wild pigs???

What a plot twist!

 

[Heshinsi]

They took the Robert Baratheon way out lol. I hope the next headline is that ISIS militants are killed by a pack of wild dogs.

 

[Zeke]

Wild boars are no joke, those tusks can slice a person up real quick. In their honor I will some bacon for breakfast tomorrow.

 

[MonorailCat]

During my conscripted time in the german army the biggest fear wasn't the russians ,, it was wild boars in the bavarian woods.

 

[Sgt. Kabukiman]

Give each of these boars a medal.

 

[Bruce Springsteen]

A very brutal way to die

 

[Euphoria14]

Trump says "Why would I tell the enemy my plan? They will know what I'm going to do!"

This man is a genius. Wild Boar attack is something I would have never expected.
