“The Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL) has executed more than 10,000 people, including women and children, in Iraq and Syria since the jihadist group declared a ‘global caliphate’ in June 2014, reports Daily Mail Online. ‘The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR), which has secret sources inside ISIS territory, said 3,207 have been killed in that war-torn country,’ notes the article. ‘Another 7,700 were executed in Iraq, according to the Iraqi Observatory for Human Rights [IOHR], which tracks ISIS violations.’ ‘The soldiers and civilians who have been beheaded, shot dead, drowned, blown up, stoned to death and thrown off buildings for violating ISIS’s twisted laws all contributed to this mammoth death toll,’ it adds. ‘The figure does not include the thousands more who have been killed in battle and suicide bombings--or the innocent people mown down by ISIS extremists as they tried to flee.’ SOHR told Daily Mail Online that it keeps a tally of the terrorist group’s executions after its activists have verified them from local sources on the ground. ... ‘The slaughter of up to 1,700 cadets at Speicher army camp in Tikrit, Iraq, was not included in the overall death toll because it occurred on June 12, 2014, a few weeks before ISIS leader Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi declared the caliphate,’ it adds. ‘Neither was the massacre of 5,000 Yazidi people in Iraq’s Sinjar province last August because they were shot down by ISIS fighters as they tried to escape.’” “ISIS has killed more than 10,000,” Breitbart.com, Sep. 25, 2015 Comments are closed.
