ISIS kills 5 family members at fake checkpoint in Kirkuk
[THEBAGHDADPOST] A group of Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really 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 western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
members recently killed a family of five at a false checkpoint on the Kirkuk ‐ Tikrit
...birthplace of Saddam Hussein...
main road, security sources said.

Colonel Muamer Murtadha, Head of the Rashad sub-district in Kirkuk,
... a thick stew of Arabs, Turkmen, Kurds, and probably Antarcticans, all of them mutually hostile most of the time...
told local media that "ISIS members established a fake security checkpoint on the road, stopped the family’s car, and opened fire on them, killing all five, including a woman."

Murtadha also explained that three more cars passed through the checkpoint and suffered damages when fired upon. The gang escaped before security forces arrived, he added.

The location of the incident falls within the authority of the commander of the Salahuddin governorate’s security forces, who launched a search operation to secure the area following the attack.
