Islamic State Kill 16 From Iraqi Tribe
2014-12-07
[Ynet] Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
 fighters kidnapped and killed 16 members of an Iraqi tribe which has fought the Sunni bad boy group in the western province of Anbar, a tribal leader and a hospital source said on Saturday.

Tribal chief Sheikh Naeem al-Ga'oud told Rooters Islamic State captured the men from the Albu Nimr tribe three days ago. Responding to a tip, tribal members searched a location about 10 km (6 miles) north of the town of Hit, and found their bodies in a water well.
Poisoning the well, literally. Just the kind of thing they do.
The bodies were transferred to a hospital in Hit, where a doctor said they had bullet wounds to the head and chest.
