BEIRUT, LEBANON (9:55 P.M.) – An infamous Swedish Islamic State (ISIS) allegedly fled Raqqa in late 2017 after the US-backed forces took control of the city, Swedish media outlets reported this weekend.

According to the Swedish media, Michael Skramo made out of Raqqa city after the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) agreed to transport the Islamic State terrorists and their family members to the Deir Ezzor Governorate.

“We made a peace deal with the US and SDF and they gave us buses to leave,” Skramo allegedly stated.

Skramo is now believed to be living with his family in an area controlled by the Islamic State located just north of Albukamal.

Be Civil

This is a Civilized Place for Public Discussion

Please treat this discussion with the same respect you would a public park. We, too, are a shared community resource — a place to share skills, knowledge and interests through ongoing conversation.

These are not hard and fast rules, merely guidelines to aid the human judgment of our community and keep this a clean and well-lighted place for civilized public discourse.

Make it better

Improve the Discussion

Help us make this a great place for discussion by always working to improve the discussion in some way, however small. If you are not sure your post adds to the conversation, think over what you want to say and try again later.

The topics discussed here matter to us, and we want you to act as if they matter to you, too. Be respectful of the topics and the people discussing them, even if you disagree with some of what is being said.

Now the hard part!

Be Agreeable, Even When You Disagree

You may wish to respond to something by disagreeing with it. That’s fine. But remember to criticize ideas, not people. Please avoid:

  • Name-calling
  • Ad hominem attacks
  • Responding to a post’s tone instead of its actual content
  • Knee-jerk contradiction

Instead, provide reasoned counter-arguments that improve the conversation.
