ISIS fighters in southern Syria pledge allegiance to new leader

[ALMASDARNEWS] The Islamic State
...formerly ISIS
...embracing their inner Islamic Brute...
or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....

(ISIS/ISIS/IS/ISIS) murderous Moslems in the southern governorate of Daraa this week pledged their allegiance to the new leader of the group.

The terrorist group’s official media wing released several photos on Wednesday that showed their fighters in the Daraa Governorate pledging their allegiance to the new Islamic State leader Abu Ibrahim al-Hashimi al-Qurayshi.

While the Islamic State controls no areas in southern Syria, they do maintain several sleeper cells inside the al-Quneitra, Daraa, and al-Sweida governorates.

The Islamic State were previously active in these governorates of southern Syria before their defeat at the hands of the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) in the Summer of 2018.

This latest move comes just a week after the terrorist group’s long-time leader and founder Abu Ibrahim al-Baghdadi killed himself during a U.S. raid on his position in the Idlib Governorate town of Barisha.

#1  But heaven forbid school children should be made to pledge allegiance to the flag and the nation for which it stands. Because God.
