| Morocco says it breaks up militant cell recruiting for ISIS |
| 2015-01-18 |
| [Ynet]. Morocco said on Saturday it had dismantled an Islamist krazed killer cell sending fighters to Syria and Iraq to join 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 Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... and mount attacks on returning home. The cell, the latest of series of radical groups authorities say they have uncovered, had been active in the city of Meknes and the towns of El-Hajeb and El-Hoceima in the Northern Rif mountains, the interior ministry said in a statement. It said the head of the cell had been in contact with Islamic State and had sent volunteers. "According to intelligence reports, Moroccans fighting in Syria and Iraq have been trained in handling weapons and manufacturing explosives to perpetrate attacks once they return to Morocco," the statement said. "Some of the eight members of the cell have been convicted in other terrorism cases in the past." |
