Iraq hands death sentence to ISIS suspect for genocide against Yazidis |

04-06-2024 [Rudaw] A Baghdad court on Tuesday handed a death sentence ...the barbaric practice of sentencing a murderer to be punished for as long as his/her/its victim is dead... to a suspected member of the 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 Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... (ISIS) for "committing genocide" against the Yazidi ethnoreligious minority during the group’s brutal reign, state media reported. "The criminal, along with members of his military detachment, executed a number of Yazidi citizens and buried them after photographing them and publishing the videos on social media sites affiliated with terrorist gangs," Iraq’s Supreme Judicial Council said in a statement about the ruling by Baghdad’s Karkh Criminal Court. He is also convicted of attacking security forces in Nineveh and Salahaddin provinces — where ISIS held swathes of territory during their reign. ISIS swept through vast swathes of Iraq and Syria in 2014 and declared a so-called "caliphate" in a brazen offensive that saw the group take control of around a third of Syria’s territory as well as several Iraqi cities, including the second largest northern city of djinn-infested Mosul ... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn... . It was declared territorially defeated in 2017 and 2019 in both countries respectively. During the jihadists’ brutal reign, they committed heinous atrocities, such as genocide, sexual slavery, and massacres against non-Moslems, especially the Yazidi ethnoreligious group. Christians and Shiite Moslems were also a target. More than 6,000 Yazidis were kidnapped when ISIS overran the community’s heartland of Shingal (Sinjar) in 2014. Around 2,700 remain missing, with little done to bring solace to the rescued. Related: Yazidi 06/03/2024 Over 850 IDPs return home from Sulaimani camps: Ministry Yazidi 05/21/2024 Sen.

#1 ICC is bullshit and biased. An I thought they didn't hand out death sentences anyway because they're so civilized. Regardless, ICC= bullshit |
