I suspect that this will be the bloodiest and most damaging one yet, even worse than Aleppo. If Isis loses this one it's all downhill from here.

The good news: two years after the Islamic State swept through large swaths of north-western Syria, and seized control of upwards of one-third of Iraq, a coalition of U.S, Arab and Kurdish military forces are poised to launch a massive new battle to liberate the city of Mosul, Iraq’s second largest
“A successful conquest would destroy ISIS’s last bastion of power in the country, and represent a serious blow to its legitimacy,” the British paper notes. “Some 30,000 Iraqi troops are expected to take part in the battle, with support from US special forces and western coalition warplanes.”
But the bloodlust is real. I hope that a lot of the Isis rats are captured alive so that vigilante groups of the victims in Mosul will get their revenge.
