ISIS Set to Execute Kurdish Fighters
2015-02-16
The Islamic State is set to execute at least 17 Kurdish fighters in a similar brutal manner as it killed Jordanian pilot Muath al-Kaseasbeh -- burning them alive in a cage.
Which should set the penalty for anyone belonging to the IS as the auto-da-fe.
In a new video released on ISIS-affiliated Twitter accounts, the Peshmerga fighters are seen in the characteristic orange jumpsuits being paraded around the Iraqi town of Kirkuk while in their cages, an uncanny reminder of the grisly video showing the execution of Kaseasbeh, in which he was put inside a cage and then set on fire.

The new four-minute video suggests a similar fate for the Peshmerga fighters, in what is seen as a retaliation to the Kurdish offensive against the terror group that has led to the death of several of its fighters.

The burning alive of the Kurdish fighters is a possible Dire Revenge tactic by ISIS after reports of Kurdish forces dragging bodies of the jihadists through streets in the Kurdistan region of Iraq emerged, according to The Daily Mail.

The stills from the disturbing video were shared on Twitter, showing the fighters being jeered at in their cages by a crowd as they are paraded by their ISIS captors.

Rudaw English, a Kurdish online newspaper also shared the pictures on its Twitter account.

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 Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
had also burned alive three Iraqi civilians following the burning video of Kaseasbeh, indicating that the terror group will resort to more such shocking executions, after having executed several hostages by beheading in the past months.

#3  Napalm, ARCLIGHT, and A-10 patrols every 20 minutes, Frank. Also, if the IS actually does burn the Kurdish fighters it holds alive, then the Kurds should quit taking prisoners. Also, issue flamethrowers to every tenth troop. IS needs to be crushed, then plowed into the earth, and the earth salted with arsenic.
