| Islamic State executes 8 'plotters' in Iraq |
| 2014-09-15 |
| [ARABNEWS] Islamic State Lions of Islam publicly executed eight Sunni men in a small northern Iraqi village at the weekend for allegedly plotting against the group, an eyewitness from the village told Rooters on Sunday. The killing began on Friday night when a pair of masked Islamic State gunnies openly murdered a police officer in Al-Jumasah village after the Lion of Islam group accused him of spying for the Kurdish and Iraqi military forces, the witness said. The Islamic State fighters gathered local residents to watch the execution in the village, about 120 km north of Tikrit. "Islamic State members said that this is the fate of anyone who opposes them," the witness said. "They presented as evidence CDs and copies of the man's correspondences with the security forces." After the police officer was executed, a small gang opened fire in Dire Revenge™ on the house of an Islamic State officer. On Saturday morning, the witness said, 10 Islamic State cars drove around Al-Jumasah with two masked informants, who helped the fighters identify 10 people they suspected of attacking their member's house the previous night. That evening, three were released and seven others -- all but one relatives of the slain policeman -- were executed. New Prime Minister Haider Al-Abadi hopes to convince Iraq's Sunni minority to rebel against Islamic State, but many remain deeply suspicious of the country's ruling Shiite elite. |

| #1 On the positive side its Moslems killing Moslems. But then that's just the way Moslems do things most of the time. Who are we to judge them? |
