Now ISIS Cracks Down on MANNEQUINS!
Daily Mail UK ^ | July 23, 2014 | Wills Robinson

ISIS have told shopkeepers in Iraq to put veils over the faces of their mannequins. Extremists handed out ultimatum after seizing city of Mosul last month. Faces of both male and female mannequins are being covered. Interpretation of Shariah Law forbids artwork or statues of human form. (Militants have already imposed strict rules on Christians in the city.)

In addition they have ordered Christians to convert to Islam, pay a tax or face death. Many from the ancient community have fled to the neighboring autonomous region of Kurdistan as a result. Mosul residents estimated the city's Christian population before last month's militant takeover at around 5,000, now only 200 are left.

Forget covering the faces of the mannequins. Cut off their heads! It’s the Islamic way.

Understand this above all -

“liberals” love Islam because they hate Christians.

Muslims, as long as they are killing, oppressing, or opposing Christianity, are OK in whatever they do.

Don’t try to shame a lib with their hypocrisy. They have no shame, only hatred for God and His Law.

Yes it is true. Sadly we mopped up once and Obama let the place return to the mess it’s again becoming.

Those look like normal headless mannequins. The new ISIS standard should be mannequins with bloody stumps where the head used to be. And maybe the severed head rolling around on the floor. Sort of an Islamic form of sanctification for the clothing store.

Considering where this is coming from, it'd be appropriate if they used "Blow-Up Dolls".

ISIS has also forbidden dressing mannequins in fleece jackets, as blatantly provocative.

I have to wonder, why the fear of anything being “provocative”? Are the men of that religion so unable to control themselves that even the sight of a wrist gets them worked up for a woman? Geez.

That is it. Islam controls people by trying to cover up and remove all sources of temptation - externally. No real change in their heart is necessary. Christianity controls people by changing their hearts so they resist temptation - internal self control.

Well, since Islam is a Satanic cult, you can be assured that it will NOT be focused on self control, but on control of others. Just like its parallel religion - “liberalism”.

The operating system of Islam, or at least many cultures that embrace it, is for men to control others and remove all temptation, precisely because they have no self-control. This is why they are fixated on conquest (though I suspect that fixation came first).

The Christian message seems to be the opposite: the world is full of sin, and it is each person’s job to resist it through faith and inner strength. The religious meaning of “jihad” is an echo of this concept. The “militant” meaning is a reversion to controlling others.
