Out with the Old, in with the New: Uzbek Militants Pledge Allegiance To Daesh
2015-04-02
[Tolo News] A group of Uzbek gunnies claiming to be the members of Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan (IMU) Death Eater group have allegedly sworn allegiance to Daesh holy warriors in Afghanistan.

They have released a video purportedly showing the beheading of an Afghan soldier in retaliation to detention of a number of female IMU supporters by the Afghan cops in northern Faryab.

Sadullah Urgeni, shown in the video as the commander of Uzbek gunnies in Afghanistan, have called His Supreme Immensity, Caliph of the Faithful and Galactic Overlord, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi
...formerly merely the head of ISIL and a veteran of the Bagram jailhouse. Looks like a new messiah to bajillions of Moslems, like just another dead-eyed mass murder to the rest of us...
, leader of Daesh in Iraq and Syria, as their new leader instead of Taliban's supreme leader Mullah Omar
... a minor Pashtun commander in the war against the Soviets who made good as leader of the Taliban. As ruler of Afghanistan, he took the title Leader of the Faithful. The imposition of Pashtunkhwa on the nation institutionalized ignorance and brutality in a country already notable for its own fair share of ignorance and brutality...
who the IMU gunnies believe can no longer be the leader according to Sharia as he has not been seen for about 13 years.

Urgeni has reportedly said in the video that in retaliation to arrest of female IMU supporters, they have taken 30 Afghan soldiers captive, which they warned to behead if the Afghan government didn't meet their demand.

The Afghan government officials, however, are yet to comment in this regard.

The IMU gunnies are said to be operating in the some unsafe areas in northern Afghanistan.
