| 2018-06-29 |
| [THEGUARDIAN] Iraq’s prime minister, Haider al-Abadi, has ordered the immediate execution of all convicted jihadists on death row in swift retaliation for 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.... ’s killing of eight captives. Abadi ordered the immediate execution of "murderous Moslems condemned to death whose sentences have passed the decisive stage", his office said, referring to convicts whose appeals have been exhausted. More than 300 people, including about 100 foreign women, have been condemned to death in Iraq and 185 to life imprisonment for membership of the Islamic State group, a judicial source said in April. Most of the convicted women are Abadi vowed on Thursday to avenge the deaths of the eight Isis captives, a day after their bodies were found along a highway north of Baghdad. "Our security and military forces will take forceful Dire Revenge against these terrorist cells," he told senior military officials and ministers. "We promise that we will kill or arrest those who committed this crime." The corpses, found at Tal al-Sharaf in Salahuddin province, were decomposing and had been strapped with explosive vests, the army said. They included six abductees who had appeared in an Isis video with badly bruised faces. Isis claimed they were Iraqi coppers or members of the Hashed al-Shaabi paramilitary force. In the video, posted on Saturday by the Amaq propaganda outlet of Isis, the jihadists threatened to execute their captives unless Baghdad released Sunni Moslem women held in its prisons within three days. But Abadi said that autopsies indicated the captives were already dead when the video was posted. |

| #3 I doubt this will deter but a few. But, prison costs will be reduced. Body parts, freshly removed, can go to victims, lives will be saved in the future, powdered bones supply phosphate and minerals for organic gardens, vultures, possibly endangered, should see population increases, crowding conditions and costs at prisons should decline, less traffic, less noise, rents may drop as the rental market shrinks, I see nothing but good from this. I know I am very pleased with such practical steps. |
