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.... (IS) sympathisers. Smugglers from the town, nicknamed by some as "Tunisia’s Derna" are reported to have collaborated with IS, helping transport Tunisian IS supporters to Libya for training there. |
