| 'Blood up to your knees': defeated IS jihadists still defiant |
| 2019-03-09 |
[PULSE.NG] Defeated but unrepentant, some jihadists limping out of their besieged final bastion in eastern Syria still praise 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 Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... and promise bloody vengeance against its enemies. The skeletal and dishevelled figures shuffling out of the smouldering ashes of the "caliphate" may look like a procession of zombies, but their devotion seems intact. |
