Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) ‐ An Iraqi court has sentenced six 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....
gunnies to death by hanging for their involvement in a deadly car kaboom near the country’s Justice Ministry in 2013, leaving scores of people dead and maimed.


According to a statement by the Iraqi Supreme Judicial Council on Monday, the convicts confessed to carrying out the massacre, using three booby-trapped vehicles.

The verdict was issued by the Karkh criminal court in Baghdad, added the statement.

In March 2013, two boom-mobiles went kaboom! in the Alawi district, one of them near the Justice Ministry building, before a suicide boom-mobileer went kaboom! near an Interior Ministry office.

A jacket wallah then walked into the Justice Ministry and Death Eaters attacked the building, clashing with Iraqi security forces, who eventually regained control.

Among the dead were at least 7 coppers and 15 civilians, police and medics said. Three Death Eaters were also killed. At least 50 people were maimed.
