All-Female ISIS Brigade Cracks Down on Women in Raqqa
ABC News ^ | July 20, 2014 | Ahmad Al-Bahri, deep in Syria

Shortly after the Sunni militant group the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) retook control of Raqqa earlier this year, it created the al-Khansaa' Brigade, an all-female unit operating in the city. Its purpose is to apprehend civilian women in Raqqa who do not follow the organization's strict brand of Sharia law, including a mandate that all women be fully covered in public and that they be accompanied by a male chaperone.

"We have established the brigade to raise awareness of our religion among women, and to punish women who do not abide by the law," says Abu Ahmad, an ISIS official in Raqqa. "There are only women in this brigade, and we have given them their own facilities to prevent the mixture of men and women."

He says the organization, which has been pushing further into eastern Syria after taking control of the Iraqi city of Mosul and key points on the Iraq-Syria border last month, needs a female brigade to "raise awareness among women, and arrest and punish women who do not follow the religion correctly. Jihad is not a man-only duty. Women must do their part as well."

The women who join the brigade are either women of Raqqa who wanted to take part in ISIS's activities there, or, often, the wives of mujahedeen who have come to fight from other parts of Syria or the region....

So if women in the al-Khansaa’ Brigade target women who are out without male chaperones, do they have to also be accompanied by male chaperones in order not to have to target themselves?

Bloody savages.....

Inbred cousin-marrying halal meat-chomping bloody savages of both sexes who think they worship a god but really don’t, if you get my drift.

Isn’t it interesting how lib sluts like her go around declaring Republicans are waging a “war on women” yet in the same breath she fanatically supports a POTUS who is doing everything he possibly can to spread and empower radical Islam? Radical Islamos never had it so good under this Kenyan slimebag, and I still don’t believe Osama Bin-Laden was ever killed. I think that whole thing was a hoax to protect him. Where’s the evidence? We haven’t seen one scintilla of evidence. How come Matt Bissonnette the guy who supposedly killed OBL said the guy he shot looked nothing like OBL? How members of Seal team 6 was killed off right after? The fact is we got an Islamic agent as POTUS, the enemy is in the White house and Congress knows it and they do absolute shet about it. Democraps know if the truth ever got out they would be destroyed as a party and Republicans are too chicken sh*t to speak up. It makes me wonder if this Kenyan slimebag and his Muslim minions are threatening them.

An “all female brigade” with NO male chaperone?

They must be punished!

Castle Anthrax style.

I always wondered why Jarrett doesn’t wear a burqa.

Surprised ABC reported this. Good comments at the site too. Don’t hear anything from the liberals. Actually they have the most to lose.

Waiting for the outhouse and its dwellers, the NAGS and ABCNNBCBS, Compost, Ny and La Slimes to condemn these barbaric hate crime acts against women.
