| ISIS threatens: any civilian leaves Mosul to be beheaded |
| 2015-03-11 |
| [ARA] The Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... group (IS/ISIS) issued a statement threatening any civilian leaves the city of djinn-infested Mosul ... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn... in Nineveh province, northwestern Iraq, will be considered an "apostate" and will be consequently beheaded, and his private property will be confiscated by the group, locals reported on Tuesday. Speaking to ARA News, a local source from Mosul said (under the condition of anonymity) that the IS bully boyz have provided residents of the city with new instructions over loudspeakers in the military cars and in the city's mosques, as well as through public posters. "Now we are under house arrest. Nobody is allowed to leave the city," he said. He explained that these warnings came one day after the U.S.-led international coalition's warplanes dropped scraps of paper advising residents to evacuate the city and stay away from the radical group's locations, especially with the imminent launch of military operations against the group in the city. A military operation by the Iraqi government forces and the Kurdish Peshmerga is expected in the coming days, aimed at regaining the city of Mosul --which has been under IS control for nearly nine months. The source also added that the civilians' living conditions are unbearable, and unemployment reached the highest rates in the city, "due to the ongoing restrictions and suppression by the group". "All civilians in Mosul have turned into human shields by the IS terrorists," he told ARA News. Noteworthy, the Iraqi central government in Baghdad had announced that they are going launch a military operation in cooperation with the Kurdish Peshmerga and some allies to regain the city of Mosul from the Islamic State group. The Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said in a press statement last week that the operation of regaining Mosul has begun. |
