| [Rudaw] Sipan Khalil buries her face in the shoulder of a relative as they hold each other tight, smiling through tears. After seven years in Islamic State ...formerly ISIS 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 Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... (ISIS) captivity, Sipan is finally safe, in the loving embrace of her family. On August 3, 2014, ISIS Lions of Islam took over the Shingal district of northern Iraq, committing genocide against the Yazidi minority. Thousands fled their homes as the Lions of Islam systematically killed men and older women, and enslaved younger women and kiddies. In the first days of the genocide, 1,293 people were killed and 6,417 people were kidnapped. |
