Iraqi court sentences 6 brothers to death for joining Islamic State

Nineveh (IraqiNews.com) ‐ An Iraqi criminal court has sentenced six brothers to death by hanging for joining 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....
(IS) terror group.

The six were found guilty of launching armed and car kabooms against security forces and civilians in Al Khasfa and Hamam Al Alil districts in Nineveh, leaving scores dead, Gilgamish Press quoted the Iraqi Supreme Judicial Council as saying in a statement.

The court ruling was issued pursuant to article ¼ of the anti-terrorism law, added the statement.

Iraqi courts have sentenced many of Islamic State members, including a big number of female members, to death over joining the krazed killer group.

The exact number of detained Lions of Islam is still unknown, however, it’s estimated to be at thousands. It’s also unclear how many members are likely to face death sentences.

Iraq’s anti-terrorism law empowers courts to convict people who are believed to have helped jihadists even if they are not accused of carrying out attacks.

The UN, the European Union
...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing...
and international human rights
...which are usually open to widely divergent definitions...
groups always criticize mass killings in Iraq and call for abolishing the death penalty
