This is in accord with the Qur’an: “Indeed, the penalty for those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger and strive upon earth [to cause] corruption is none but that they be killed or crucified or that their hands and feet be cut off from opposite sides or that they be exiled from the land. That is for them a disgrace in this world; and for them in the Hereafter is a great punishment.” — Qur’an 5:33
“Al Qaeda-linked jihadists accused of hanging victims on crosses,” by Lisa Daftari, FoxNews.com, April 29, 2014 (thanks to Pamela Geller):
Al Qaeda-backed jihadists are hanging the bodies of executed enemies on crosses crucifixion-style in a town in Northern Syria, according to a Syrian opposition group.
The executions reportedly took place Tuesday in Raqqa, where the extremist group Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, or ISIS, an Al Qaeda-linked network, has taken over the city, according to Abu Ibrahim Alrquaoui, who identifies himself as a founder of a group called Raqqa is Being Slaughtered Silently.
Alrquaoui said those killed were rebels that had previously fought against the Syrian government of Bashir al-Assad. “It’s very dangerous,” Alrquaoui, told FoxNews.com in an interview. “They threaten us directly and want to kill us.”
Alrquaoui said he witnessed the executions himself, and took photographs that have since been posted on the group’s Facebook page, and are now being circulated on the Internet.
The series of photographs show different men bound to crosses in what appears to be a public square area, though it could not be independently confirmed that the subjects were dead or, if they were, by what means the executions had been carried out. The pictures do not show any apparent signs of the men nailed to a cross, nor are there any obvious, visible signs of fatal wounds.
ISIS has ruled over Raqqa for the last year, killing its remaining rebel population and demolishing national relics, according to multiple reports. “They want to stay in control. Everything they do is to scare people,” Alrquaoui said. “That’s why they kill people publicly.”
Jihadists operating in Syria have previously been accused of shooting people in the head, then affixing them to crosses. In this latest case, the ISIS charged the seven men with espionage and attempted assassination of the group’s leaders, according to Alrquaoui.
Many Syrian cities like Raqqa have fallen into the hands of Islamic terrorists. More than 150,000 people have died since the civil war began in March 2011.

Muslims insist that Islam be ( given) respect.
Let’s have a Qur’an burning protest for this and the 200 sex slaves captured in the name of Islam until the media and Obama are forced to take notice.
So what if Muslims get mad, they are going to get mad regardless.
john spielman says
rather than burn the Korans which seem too good for it ( we burn old US flags out of respect) I would favor a mass shredding of Korans and throwing the pieces in a well used latrine!
rage against injustice says
Burn the us flag????? NO WAY!!!!!!! Burn Obama’s picture while holding these pictures, so the world that our tax money is being used to fund terrorist who crucified innocent people.
Islamisdeath says
Obama already notices. The problem is that he not only approves he aids and abetts them with a flourish of his pen as he signs executive orders one after the other.

The Christian genocide by islamic savages continues, and yet the MSM remains eerily silent on this important issue …
Islamisdeath says
The msm desires the annihilation of Christianity because Christians believe things that are not compatible with the beliefs of the immoral left. Cant wait to see what happens when their darlings the muslims get hold of them!
Champ ✿ says
No kidding! …great point 🙂
Carmine Fragione says
By their own interpretation Jesus comes to destroy the cross, but the Koran says to use the cross to crucify Christians . Maybe what was meant to be said was that when Jesus comes the Koran will be exposed for all it’s lies, and then this cruel deed of crucifying the Christians, will end. Breaking the cross then means Jesus ends Islamic rule, and it’s cruel acts.

You can not tell me that those who seem to be in charge in that country never do anything wrong??? How is it they keep their hands and feet??? The followers are not the only sinners. There is only One sinless Man and His name is NOT mohammed or allah it is JESUS CHRIST!!!!!! No other name under heaven and earth is powerful like the name of Jesus. There is no one who is equal with Jesus.
