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.

If these so-called extremists are NOT islam, then why was bin Laden given a proper muslim burial at sea?

This is islam. It is the so-called moderates who are not following the book.

Dune is more based on the desert dwelling bedouin than Islam.

I recall no islamic references in Dune but tons of Bedouin correlations.

According to Wikipedia INDONESIA IS SUNNI. Iran is Shiite. So is there conflict in the current administration with Jarrett being Shiite and Obama being Sunni? Not when Jarrett is wearing the pants and Obama the robes. I wonder where Mrs. O fits in? Article by NYT on Iran’s choices...

Boy working for the state department must be aging it’s staff (those who know what they are doing-left a long time ago?).

Ruh-roh, scooby, Qatar is Sunni. That makes sense. Maybe the head of the administration actually authorized the Bergdahl trade. Jarrett may not care being a socialist and being a shrink, may be hoping to bring the Sunni and Shiites together. Hope and change, baby, hope and change.

“Obama’s biological father (the source of his pathetic dreams and his millions in book royalties) was Kenyan, and Kenyan Mooselimbs”.....

While I cannot agree nor disagree with that statement, has it ever been proven beyond a shadow of doubt that indeed odumbo’s father is who they say he was? I would like to see some DNA evidence BEFORE accepting the “speculation”.

The Fremen are followers of the Zensunni religion. They fight the jihad. Their core fighters are called the Ikhwan or brotherhood, the same word used for the Muslim Brotherhood. Their code of custom is called sharia. Paul Atreides becomes the Mahdi.

But your point is well taken. The problem is that at this point in time it’s difficult to disentangle Arabic from Islamic culture. They’ve pretty much merged.

Here’s an interesting article.

from the so-called the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria

Subtle attempt to try and distance ISIS from Islam. Not working, but nice try.

This is a serious question:

....isn’t this just one sect of muzzie killers killing another sect of muzzie killers?

.....If I am correct, and I honestly don’t know, isn’t this a good thing given that a true hard core muzzy can only become a good muzzy when he is dead. So, who the hell cares HOW they die?

Now, if there are some good guys mixed in with the executed folks, then that’s another story!

Good call, I did forget. I personally don’t think his policies are sectarian in that regard, they seem to benefit whichever Islamic group pops up, and harm the US.
