| [ARA] Dozens of Western fighters from different nationalities have joined the ranks of the Kurdish forces in Syria and Iraq in order to combat murderous Moslems 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). The mounting atrocities of the holy warrior group against civilians have these Westerners --some with military experience and others with no fighting background--supporting Kurds in their months-long conflict against IS. In Syria, hundreds of Western members of the People's Protection Units (YPG and Women's Protection Units (YPJ) have formed what is known as "Lions of Rojava" (Lions of Syrian Kurdistan). They force combat IS in several areas in Syria's Kurdish region alongside the YPG and YPJ. The force fights under the banner "Send Terrorists to Hell and Save Humanity". Speaking to ARA News, Peter, an American fighter in the ranks of Lions of Rojava, emphasized the importance of being united with the Kurdish forces in order to fight against IS holy warriors, saying it's a front that everyone should join since IS is an enemy to all of humanity. "What prompted me to come here and join the Kurdish forces was the desire to help eliminate the enemies of humanity (in reference to IS bad boys)," Peter said. "By this amount of brutality and barbaric atrocities against innocent civilians, theese gunnies are trying to destroy humanity. Thus it seems a duty to fight and eliminate them." "They are a source of extremism and terrorism, and they share all inhuman qualities," he added. Speaking to ARA News on the fighting front against the radical group in the town of Tel Brak near Qamishli, Peter appealed to the U.S.: "Air operations must be more efficient against the Islamic State, and essential tactical units of the group should be given a priority in the "Eliminating terrorism starts with eliminating IS, because the group has attracted Death Eaters from all over the world. So this is a great opportunity for the U.S. and allies to put an end to those gunnies who threaten innocent people, not only in this region but all over the world," Peter told ARA News. Delil, a Kurdish fighter who is fighting alongside Peter, said that the presence of Peter and other Western fighters on the Kurdish side of the conflict against IS "it raises the overall morale among Kurds". "When you see foreigners leave their homelands to join us in the fight against terrorism, this strengthens our spirits in this war, so we remain even more steadfast in our commitment to defend our people and homeland," Delil told ARA News. |
