ISIS Declares A Caliphate; Crucifies 9 Syrian Rebels For Being "Too Moderate"

Erstwhile leader of ISIS, Sheikh Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi has declared himself Caliphate, Amir Al-Mu'minin - Leader of Believers, as militants bear down on Baghdad. This comes as the extremist group demands that all Al-Qaeda and Jihadi branches must now pledge allegiance to ISIS.. if not there are consequences as nine rebels have been crucified for being too 'moderate' or accused of receiving support from Western powers. We suspect this may slow 'demand' for Obama's latest cunning plan to offer 'aid' to only "moderate" terrorists.

ISIS have declared their Caliphate.

Which means...

And all Al-Qaeda and Jihadis must pledge allegiance to ISIS

As a reminder, this is how ISIS envisions its Caliphate:

Or fear death for being too moderate... (as RT reports)

Eight rebel fighters have been crucified in Syria by the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) because they were considered too moderate, a monitoring group said on Sunday.

 

The eight men were brutally killed in the town square of Deir Hafar in the east of Aleppo province on June 28 because they were from rebel groups that had fought the jihadists as well as President Bashar Assad’s forces, the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said, AFP reports.

 

ISIS then “crucified them in the main square of the village, where their bodies will remain for three days,” the pro-opposition NGO added.

 

A ninth man was crucified alive in Aleppo province where he was nailed up for eight hours in Al-Bab near the Turkish border as a punishment, although he has reportedly survived the ordeal.

We suspect there will not be too many takers for President Obama's newly unveiled plan to offer "aid" to "moderate" Syrian rebels... Red line?

As Reuters reports, better not hold your hand out for Western support...

The men were accused of being "Sahwa" fighters, the Observatory said, a term ISIL uses to refer to rival combatants whom it accuses of being controlled by Western powers.

Religion is much like a penis. It's great to have one, and it's perfectly alright to be proud of it. But if you start whipping it out in public, then you have a serious behavioral problem that needs to be addressed. If you try to shove it down people's throats, then you are sick and require treatment.

I think that religious nuts should be cut off from the secular life they despise: No technology, no medicine, no government help, no social security. Let them live the religious dream, and discover for themselves how it is in fact a nightmare.

This looks black swan-ish to me. I had no idea who this group was 6 weeks ago.

Religion, the best excuse for a power grab. "Look at me, I'm like a prophet!"

My tribe doesn't agree to your claim of being most like the prophet, so, war!

War profiteers laugh.

Those National Guardsmen should be getting kitted out now ready to be shipped out to Iraq. Saudi Arabia seems accident prone in the region together with its sidekick Qatar. Where is Rumsfeld when you need a few choice words ? What kind of Imperial Power has its gains washed away in such short order and fails to return and impose order ?

This is a fight the US cannot run away from. Every single slogan and utterance since 2001 with regard to Al-Qaeda now rings true even though it was bombastic decit back then. Destroying Saddam to turn the whole region upside down was none to bright but at least the US overthrew the structures the British and French sustained since 1919..........

Now The Caliphate is born anew it will need Baghdad and can then bring Sunnis in Turkey and Pakistan and Central Asia into the fold and with the Silk Road in Aleppo and Mosul the great new empire can stretch towards trade with China

The last pages of the comments on ZH are so sad. Talkers with no listeners.
