BAGHDAD -- Militants with the Islamic State group publicly killed a human rights lawyer in the Iraqi city of Mosul after their self-styled Islamic court ruled that she had abandoned Islam, the U.N. mission in Iraq said Thursday.

Samira Salih al-Nuaimi was seized from her home on Sept. 17 after allegedly posting messages on Facebook that were critical of the militants' destruction of religious sites in Mosul.

According to the United Nations Assistance Mission in Iraq, al-Nuaimi was tried in a so-called "Sharia court" for apostasy, after which she was tortured for five days before the militants sentenced her to "public execution."

She was killed on Monday, the U.N. mission said. Her Facebook page appears to have been removed since her death.

It is getting difficult to keep track of the high-profile ISIS beheadings, stonings, scalpings, and whatever else those maniacs do to kill people.

The next time I read yet another self-congratulatory article about a US “human rights” activist or attorney and how brave they are or what heroes they are, I will remember this. The only real human rights activists are people like this woman, who really do risk death and torture to try to create a more humane world.

When Clinton was president, I didn’t post here often especially after he was re-ERECTED... I was afraid of him. Well i am much more afraid of Prissydent Bahama, but if he kills me he kills me... I won’t be silent anymore.

Well, it is a fact that some Republicans want women to pay the $10/month birth control pill cost out of their own pockets.

Based on liberal reactions to the rapes, beatings, mutilations, murders and enslavement of women in Islam (no reaction at all), it doesn't get worse than $10/month out of your own pocket for birth control pills.

You people have them all wrong. They’re all just giant brown smurfs who only need a hug and they’ll behave. That what the left wants us to believe.

I wonder what the life insurance rates are for people working as women’s rights lawyers in the Middle East! LOL

That isn’t a job, it’s a literal death wish!
