Terror Group ISIS Declares Guns Illegal in Parts of Iraq They Control June 16 2014 by Dan Cannon Share This Post

If you’re a terror group attempting a coup of an unstable country what’s the last thing you want to see? Probably citizens gathering and taking up arms against you. You may be able to scare some uniformed members of Iraq’s military who may not believe in their cause anyway, but eventually enough people are going to get fed up, organize, and fight back.

ISIS (The Islamic State in Iraq and Syria) looks like they are attempting to nip that in the bud early on. According to The Telegraph, this is one of ISIS’ new laws for the parts of Iraq it now controls [emphasis mine],

Any one of its members who breach this promise will have their hands cut off.

“No drugs, no alcohol and no cigarettes allowed,” it added.

No public gathering other than those organised by ISIS will be allowed at any stage. No guns will be allowed outside of its ranks.

All tribal leaders and sheikhs in the area have been warned not to co-operate with the state.

Isn’t that exactly the type of laws that gun control extremists such as Dianne Feinstein and Chuck Schumer want to see passed in the United States.

ISIS continues to make gains in Iraq as the group has seized abandoned military equipment as well as tens if not hundreds of millions of dollars from regional banks. The group says their goal is to establish an Islamic Caliphate in the area that is currently Iraq and Syria.

Hmmmm, turn in your guns.

Where have we heard that before?

From the same kind of worthless types of people?

Both deserve the same fate.

And that takes guns.

I’ve heard that Australia has done some very impressive things in this regard. Perhaps ISIS should emulate them.

Suddenly Obama and the RATs find common ground for support of the ISIS.
After all, what Is, Is.

ISIS — you can’t rob banks and steal money, but we can.

ISIS — you can’t have a gun, but we can.

“And that takes guns”.

...and I don’t need to add, A M M U N I T I O N.

It isn’t getting any cheaper or any more available as anti-gun folks recognize without it the pro-gun folks are neutered and so the focus will be on ways to inhibit the manufacture, sale, and especially hording of ammo.

If I remember correctly, the US Army allowed each Iraqi family to keep one full auto AK-47 at home for protection.

Even WE are not allowed to do that!

‘Black flag of jihad will fly over London’: Alarm over UK-born Iraq fighters’ threat

Edited time: June 17, 2014 09:57

Terror alerts, 9/11-style bombings and murders of British citizens will soon come to London’s streets, according to chilling threats from UK citizens fighting alongside Islam’s most violent terrorist group operating in Syria and Iraq.

The threat comes from British nationals fighting for the Sunni militant group calling themselves the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL/ISIS) in Syria. According to the Sunday Times, they promise that after they’re done there, Britain is next. The message comes from three such fighters, all youngsters in their teens and twenties.

According to the Times, these aren’t regular disenchanted youths at all: one is a 20-year-old hacker from Birmingham, who once stole Tony Blair’s details and posted them online, later serving time for an unrelated violence charge.

The “black flag of jihad” will fly over Downing Street, Junaid Hussain warned on June 4, spelling out the horrors to come. He’s been fighting in Syria for over a year now.

Another, 19-year-old Muhammad Hassan, from Portsmouth, was a student at a prestigious school. He warned on Twitter that if the US doesn’t cease threats over drone strikes on ISIS positions, 9/11-style attacks on America would follow.

The third, also from Portsmouth, promised a “killing spree” of British citizens if he were ever to return to Britain.

“Imagine if someone were to detonate a bomb at voting stations or ambushed the vans that carry the casted [sic] votes. It would mess the whole system up,” came another tweet from Junaid Hussain, before he re-tweeted a warning from a like-minded countryman for British people to “watch out,” because “we’ll come back to the UK and wreak havoc.”

Yes we have. Lenin, Mao and Hitler all agree. Gun control works.

“...No guns will be allowed outside of its ranks. ..”

Sounds REALLY familiar....

We’ll just see how that turns out for them.
