| IS launches bloody purge in captured Ramadi |
| 2015-05-21 |
| [RUDAW.NET] 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.... snuffies searched door-to-door for coppers and pro-government fighters and threw bodies in the Euphrates River in a bloody purge Monday after capturing the strategic city of Ramadi, their biggest victory since overrunning much of northern and western Iraq last year. None of that "hearts and minds" bull here. Just plain old fashioned sack and pillage. Some 500 civilians and soldiers died in the turban killing spree since the final push for Ramadi began Friday, authorities said. |
