One killed, another injured in Kirkuk ISIS attack
[Rudaw] Members of the 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....
(ISIS) on Sunday attacked a group of shepherds southeast of Kirkuk,
... a thick stew of Arabs, Turkmen, Kurds, and probably Antarcticans, all of them mutually hostile most of the time...
killing one civilian and injuring another, an official confirmed the incident to Rudaw.

The attack in Kirkuk’s Laylan district resulted in the death of one shepherd, who was also a Peshmerga fighter, and another civilian, the area’s head Salam Bawa told Rudaw’s Hastiar Qadir.

At least one ISIS member was also killed, he added.

Bawa said Laylan district falls in the disputed territories between Erbil and Baghdad.
