ISIS executed 600 prison inmates in Mosul says Human Rights Watch
Iraqi News ^ | October 31, 2014 | Abdelhak Mamoun

Posted on 10/31/2014 10:45:55 PM PDT by GonzoII

(IraqiNews.com) Today Human Rights Watch reported that gunmen from the so-called the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria carried out the systematic execution of about 600 male inmates from a prison on the outskirts of the city of Mosul in northern Iraq on June 10 according to accounts of the survivors. The overwhelming majority of the dead were Shiites.

After seizing Badush prison near Mosul, the militants ISIS separated the Sunnis inmates from the Shiites, and then forced the latter to kneel at the edge of a valley and shot them from assault rifles and automatic weapons, according to what 15 Shiites prisoners, who survived the massacre, said to Human Rights Watch. The survivors added that the gunmen had also killed a number of Kurdish and Yazidi inmates.

I say we take off and nuke the site from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.

Someone from the International Court in the Hague will be serving papers on them anytime now. Then they’ll be sorry.

BamBam is not going to be pleased. Isn't he a Shiite?

Presumably not, given his background, Kenyan and Indonesian Muslims are predominantly Sunni. Shia are only the majority in Iraq, Iran and Bahrain, (may be forgetting one), as far as total numbers are concerned, Shias are a small part of the problem.

Wow. This reminds me of the inhumane treatment of our prisoners in Gitmo.

Not likely.

Obama's biological father (the source of his pathetic dreams and his millions in book royalties) was Kenyan, and Kenyan Mooselimbs are Sunni. Obama's stepfather was Indonesian, and those are also Sunni.

Of course, by ISIS standards Kenyan and Indonesian Sunnis aren’t very good Sunnis. Or at least they didn’t used to be. The Wahabbis have influenced a lot of areas back towards “real Islam.”

There are moderate Muslims. And there are good Muslims. But there are no good, moderate Muslims.

Those who follow "real Islam" must be exterminated when they attempt to enact their aims.

More or less works for me.

Considering how much attention Islam gets today, it’s interesting to remember that when Herbert wrote Dune in 1965, he based most of his Fremen culture on Islam because it was so exotic and unknown to the rest of the world.

In 1965 nobody ever thought about Islam. Even the Arab conflict with Israel was primarily based on nationalism, not religion. Lots of the Palestinian leaders, for example, were Christians.

BTW, one of my best friends converted to Islam in the late 60s because the Episcopalianism he was raised in was too violent. He has since commented that this was a little frying pan and fire. But the point is that in the late 60s Islam wasn’t perceived as particularly violent, because mostly it wasn’t. (Then.)

In his defense, he joined a branch of Sufism that really is non-extremist. Of course, ISIS would kill him and his fellow sect members immediately.

Would be interesting for somebody to run a search in the last 50 years of the NY Times to see how often Islam was mentioned each year.

1966 was the year Sayyid Qutb, intellectual founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, fell through the floor wearing a hemp necktie picked out for him by Gamal Abdel Nasser. Hopefully, Egypt is once again in good hands with General Sisi in command.

More recently, we have Ayaan Hirsi Ali, a Somali Muslim who escaped an arranged marriage and went on to be a member of the Dutch Parliament and subsequently the wife of a Harvard professor:

“The morning after the 9/11 attacks...we began talking about the Twin Towers attack. Ruud shook his head sadly about it all. He said, "It's so weird, isn't it, all these people saying this has to do with Islam?"

I couldn't help myself...I blurted out, "But it *is* about Islam. This is based in belief. This is Islam."

Ruud said, "Ayaan, of course these people may have been Muslims, but they are a lunatic fringe. We have extremist Christians, too, who interpret the bible literally. Most Muslims do not believe these things. To say so is to disparage a faith which is the second largest religion in the world, and which is civilized, and peaceful."

I walked into the office thinking, "I have to wake these people up."...The Dutch had forgotten that it was possible for people to stand up and wage war, destroy property, imprison, kill, impose laws of virtue because of the call of God. That kind of religion hadn't been present in Holland for centuries. It was not a lunatic fringe who felt this way about America and the West. I knew that a vast mass of Muslims would see the attacks as justified retaliation against the infidel enemies of Islam.”

― Ayaan Hirsi Ali

Here is what she didn't say at Brandeis last June, after the 'tards succeeded in getting her her honorary degree pulled:

Obama's neither Sunni nor Shiite. He's not Muslim, despite his name and background. He's a committed anti-American commie. To be Muslim would require submitting to a higher authority than his true religion, which is International Socialism and rabid anticolonialism! It's just that the leftard culture has latched onto Islam for temporary advantage against the Anglosphere. Hence, it's politically correct to be against Israel and for the wogs. But, if the leftards ever win unambiguous power, the Muslims will have to conform to their ideology, not the reverse! LOL!
