| [ARA] On Thursday, Lions of Islam of the 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.... (IS/ISIL) whipped nine elderly people in the village of Qibba Shekh in al-Bab area in the province of Aleppo, northern Syria, on charges of having sons fighting in the ranks of Syrian rebel factions. A 60-year-old man, who was whipped in public by IS turbans, told ARA News (under condition of anonymity): "Several IS Death Eaters tossed in the calaboose Drop the rod and step away witcher hands up! me and took me to the village's public square, then hit me with fifty lashes." "They punished me because my son is fighting in the ranks of Ahrar al-Sham ...a Syria jihadi group made up of Islamists and salafists, not that there's that much difference, formed into a brigade. They make up the main element of the Islamic Front but they don't profess adoration of al-Qaeda and they've been fighting (mainly for survival) against the Islamic State. Their leadership was wiped out at a single blow by a suicide kaboom at a crowded basement meeting in September, 2014... Brigade (linked to the Free Syrian Army ... the more palatable version of the Syrian insurgency, heavily influenced by the Moslem Brüderbund... "FSA")," he said. "I saw other nine men gathered for the same reason." Speaking to ARA News, wife of a whipped man said that the radical group has kept her husband lying on the ground for an hour after whipping him with fifty lashes. "I saw blood covering his back. I was so helpless and could do nothing for him," she said. In a related development, activist Abdel Qader Shihab from al-Bab told ARA News that the power of IS has remarkably declined in the recent weeks. "The group is trying to compensate its losses in other areas by showing an increasing degree of brutality against civilians in al-Bab," Shihab said. He added that the IS gunnies are launching arrest campaigns against the youth of the city without any specific reason. |

| #1 "We left the camp after we had inoculated the children for polio, and this old man came running after us and he was crying. He couldn't see. We went back there, and they had come and hacked off every inoculated arm. There they were in a pile. A pile of little arms. And I remember... I... I... I cried, I wept like some grandmother. I wanted to tear my teeth out; I didn't know what I wanted to do! And I want to remember it. I never want to forget it... I never want to forget. And then I realized... like I was shot... like I was shot with a diamond... a diamond bullet right through my forehead. And I thought, my God... the genius of that! The genius! The will to do that! Perfect, genuine, complete, crystalline, pure... able to utilize their primordial instincts to kill without feeling... without passion... without judgment... without judgment! Because it's judgment that defeats us. " |
