Islamic State executes 24 Iraqis for alleged links to security forces
2015-04-20
[ARA] Militant fighters of 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 Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(IS/ISIS) stormed a number of houses in the sub-district of Zab (95 km west of Kirkuk), on Sunday, and kidnapped 24 residents, including officials of the local council of the area, and Iraqi security personnel.

Speaking to ARA News, eyewitnesses from Kirkuk said that the abductees were executed on the road linking the city of djinn-infested Mosul
... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn...
with Baiji (45 km south of Mosul) in northern Iraq.

The sources added that the radical group accused the victims of having suspicious links with the Iraqi security forces and with joining the ranks of the Shiite militia of the Popular Mobilization Force.

The southwestern areas of the province of Kirkuk have been held by the Islamic State since mid-June 2014, while battles continue between the group and Iraqi forces who try to regain those areas.
