RAQQA, Syria — The self-proclaimed Islamic State has issued a statement condemning self-proclaimed comedian Kathy Griffin, accusing her of “cultural appropriation” after she posed for a photograph with a mock severed head of President Donald Trump.
The group, which has been protective of its brand ever since taking over vast swaths of Iraq and Syria and establishing itself as the premier beheading agency in the Middle East, said it was deeply disturbed by Griffin’s “ignorant and offensive” use of a “sacred Islamic State tradition.”
“This is just another example of a privileged white woman culturally appropriating the proud custom of a marginalized people. Beheadings are our thing, not your thing,” said the statement, which was released on Telegram.
Reports indicate that ISIS was at least somewhat relieved to see the swift and overwhelming backlash against Griffin on social media.
“Of course, the West’s social justice ‘warriors’ have always been our ally, and once again, they did not disappoint. We’re thankful that our fatwa friends immediately identified her offensive appropriation of one of our most cherished rituals,” said Aahil al-Raqqa, an executioner for the group.

I assume satire?
Only the koran blesses smiting unbelievers on the neck.
The NMA (National Machete Association) is also upset over the lack of product placement.
Hopefully GRIFFIN will go into ‘hiding’.
You should label this as satire, it is a satirical site
Satire?
lol
Clever
Satire.
But if they did condemn her for it.. that would be almost funny.
Ariana Grande also said her fans could just effing die.
She got her wish..
LOL!
Excellent!
That made my day! Thanks for the laugh.
Well just dang Kathy!
When you’ve lost ISIS, just how much do you have left to lose?
Other than your life, that is.
Best laugh I have had lately!! Griffin is truly mentally disabled. The reactions to her disability of no foresight are often close to sublime.
That deserves the Rachel Dolezal award for comedy in fictional narrative!
Excellent gruesome satire!
Very. Mostly a military slant, since Duffleblog has a lot of material to work with, there.
