Too Scared to Pray? ISIL Cancels Prayers for Fear of Russian Airstrikes
Sputnik News ^ | 10/3/15

The Islamic State terror group cancelled Friday prayers in the Syrian city of Raqqa and emptied mosques there out of fear of further Russian airstrikes, according to activists and city residents.

According to the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, 12 Islamic State militants were killed Thursday in Russia’s first airstrikes carried out in the group's de facto capital in Syria.

"Last night, Russian strikes on the western edges of Raqqa city, and near the Tabqa military airport, killed 12 IS jihadists," Abdel Rahman, head of the observatory, told AFP.

He said residents were staying indoors, and IS "has started to implement a plan to turn off electricity in a number of areas of the city when planes are overhead."

Putin does not seem to be squeamish about bombing a “mosque” (AKA Arsenal/propaganda center)

But are not all things the will of Allah? How can an infidel bomb penetrate and destroy so powerful a god?

Faithless muslims. Their brethren should immeadiately follow the koran and slaughter them all.

Just like criminals rob banks “because that’s where the money is”, Putin bombs mosques because that’s where the Muslims are. Makes sense to me.

Any man of normal character would resign as President out of shame and embarrassment for the good of the country.

He said residents were staying indoors, and IS “has started to implement a plan to turn off electricity in a number of areas of the city when planes are overhead.”

SO... the Ruskies just need to bomb the dark spots.

Good call. There is no point in praying to Satan (Shaitan in Islam), when ISIS thugs are about to meet him face to face. When an illiterate rapist/looter sees a Russian gunship targeting him, I’ll bet the rhetoric about how raping young girls was okay seems rather unconvincing, even to poorly-educated savages.

I have no love for Russia’s government or the general brutality of their culture, but there are times when brutal and decisive actions are the right response.
