| [Rudaw] The remains of hundreds of Yezidis executed by 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 Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... (ISIS) murderous Moslems are believed to have been discovered at a mass grave in Kocho, Shingal. It's one of 15 burial sites in the village of Kocho, a Yezidi village in the Shingal district. The Iraqi government, the International Commission on Missing Persons and the United Nations ...the Oyster Bay money pit... are conducting an exhumation of the suspected mass grave sites. "The bodies in this grave will be sent directly to the forensic department in Baghdad, and I went to Baghdad and visited the laboratories and saw the process there," said Haitham Ahmad who has lost four family members. In the summer of 2014, the ethno-religious Yezidi minority in northwestern Iraq and the Kurdistan Region were targeted by Islamic State (ISIS) bully boyz streaming from Raqqa to djinn-infested Mosul ... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn... across the border with Syria. "I am confident that the crimes of ISIS will be revealed through the examination of these bodies. It (the examination result) will be stored by them until all the 15 mass graves in Kocho, 14 inside Kocho itself and one in Sulag, are exhumed and only then can we receive them officially and give them a proper burial," added Ahmad. Only 26 bodies have been recovered so far at the site in Kocho, although 500 victims' remains are through to be buried there. |
