Video: Video shows Isil's underground war tunnels and 'mass grave' in Sinjar

Something to think about...

This is what whoever goes into Raqqa and Mosul will be dealing with, only times ten.

Nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

Talked me into it Ripley.

There's also the rumored option of "Gods' Rods". All the punch with none of the residual mess to worry about!

Call me old fashioned, but I think a good ol' carpet bombing so it looks like this would do too.

I've always wondered what a carpet bomb would look like? And if we dropped one on Raqqa would it be in good taste? I mean I'd be embarrassed if we dropped some nasty old shag carpet on the place.

I think a Berber carpet bomb would be more suitable. They are Muslims after all.

Yup. The penultimate expression of stick them with the pointy end. Next coolest thing to MOAB's and using thermobarics to waste dozens of Al Qaeda and Taliban at a time in those caves in Afghanistan. Thor's Hammer orbital attack satellites. No nukes. Just dropping 2-foot diameter hardened steel rods the length of a couple of telephone poles from 25 miles up. Aside from attaching some missile fins to keep it on target the entire damage is done from sheer impact. Totally awesome weapon porn that makes even the most jaded observer exult in the deaths of the hapless shitheads it lands on. As Flavor Flav so accurately said, awwwwwww yeaaaaaahhhhhh!
