ISIS militants execute Iraqi mukhtars, militiamen in new video

[Rudaw] 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....
(ISIS) gunnies published a video on messaging app Telegram on Sunday night appearing to depict the execution of Sunni bully boyz and village chiefs accused of passing on information about jihadist activities to security forces.
In the 21-minute propaganda film, which features scenes of alleged recent fighting in eastern Diyala province and an explosives workshop, the gunnies warn Sunni members of the Hashd al-Shaabi paramilitia and local officials, known as mukhtars, not to collaborate with Iraqi security forces.
"Stop killing the Mujahedeen [holy warriors] and do not get involved in a fight doomed to defeat," one murderous Moslem says before executing a captive named as Hameed Rakan, an alleged Sunni fighter.
Another man named as Mohammed Abdullah, who they claim is the mukhtar of the village of Big Bahiza in Diyala, is also beheaded.
At least seven captives are executed in the graphic film, in which the gunnies pledge continued allegiance to ISIS leader His Supreme Immensity, Caliph of the Faithful and Galactic Overlord, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi
 ...the head of ISIS, or what remains of it, and a veteran of the Abu Graib jailhouse. Looks like a new messiah to bajillions of Moslems, like just another dead-eyed mass murder to the rest of us. So far he has been killed at least four times, though not yet by a stake through the heart...
It is unclear when and where precisely the footage was captured.
ISIS remnants continue to operate in several mountainous and desert regions of Iraq despite their territorial defeat in 2017.
The Hamrin Mountains, 160 kilometers north of Baghdad, straddle the northern provinces of Saladin, Diyala and Kirkuk. They have become a hotbed for the new insurgency developing in Iraq.
On Sunday, Iraqi counterterrorism forces killed the ISIS group’s "military governor" in the northern Hamrin Mountains and three of his aides in an operation backed by intelligence services and the US-led coalition, officials said.
"Based on info from the Iraqi National Intelligence Service, the Counter Terrorism Service targeted and eliminates the so-called Hamrin Mountains military governor of ISIS (ISIS) and his three aides," read a tweet by Yahya Rasul, spokesperson for the Iraqi Security Media Cell, late Sunday.
"The operation was supported by the Iraqi Army Aviation and aircraft from our Coalition partners."
Two brigades of the elite Iraqi Counter-Terrorism Forces (ICTS) launched an operation last week against ISIS remnants operating along the mountain range in the north of the country following a green light from Prime Minister Adil Abdul-Mahdi.
The headquarters of ISIS propaganda newspaper al-Nabaa was targeted on the first day of the offensive.
ISIS gunnies are exploiting security gaps opened up between Kurdish Peshmerga lines and areas controlled by the Iraqi Security Forces (ISF).
In the wake of the Kurdistan Region’s independence referendum, the Iraqi government launched an offensive against the Peshmerga, forcing it to withdraw from the territories considered disputed between Iraq and the Kurdistan Region.
The no man’s land between the rival armies has left ungoverned spaces where holy warriors have been allowed to regroup.
