Iraq: Islamic jihadists murdering real estate agents for doing business with Christians

May 26, 2014 2:09 pm By Robert Spencer

Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant“We were removed from our large house north of Mosul, without being able to sell it.” The idea here is to bleed the Christians dry — after all, under Islamic law they owe the jizya tpo Muslims anyway (cf. Qur’an 9:29). But the world takes no notice. As long as no one is perpetrating any “Islamophobia,” all is well.

“Islamic State of Iraq and Syria Preventing Assyrians From Selling Their Homes,” AINA, May 25, 2014:

Mosul, Iraq (AINA) — According to a report published by the Iraq Press, hundreds of Assyrians in Mosul have been forced to leave the city by fighters of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, also known as Daash. The Assyrians have been prevented by Daash from selling their homes. Daash has killed real estate agents who do business with Christians.

Unidentified gunmen assassinated the owner of the Zouhour Real Estates agency after he brokered the sale of a Christian house.

Speaking on condition of anonymity, a source at the Nineveh Operation Command said that “ten real estate agents have been killed between 2013 and 2014, most recently the owner of El Nour Realty Office in the region of Mouhandiseen after he was kidnapped and beheaded for selling the house of a Christian family.

The owner of a real estate agency said “there are those who engaged secretly in the sale of real estate outside of the office environment, but the information was leaked to Daash quickly through informants belonging to them. Daash beheaded two of them in front of the owners of some offices selling real estate.”

An Assyrian mother said to Iraq Press “The broker who sold my home in March 2013 was killed by armed groups and he was a father of four children. I feel I’m the responsible of this.”

Rachel Ishu, an Assyrian from Mosul, demanded the Nineveh Operations Command find a solution to this humanitarian disaster that has affected nearly 5,000 Christian families. “I live in a small house in located 40 KM north-east of Mosul, I pay a monthly rental of 500 Dinars, I have no breadwinner, only an employed daughter who pays all her salary as rent for our house. We were removed from our large house north of Mosul, without being able to sell it.”

    Shame on the NYTs for not making this their #1 story – non-stop .

    They’re too busy trying to find “policies” – whether they be Russian, German, European, American – what ever – that supposedly are the cause of Jihad violence.

    May the heads of the NYTs fall under the curse of Jihad. They won’t get any sympathy from me If they do.

    The cost of unfinished business, the cost and result of farming out our “Victory,” being foolish enough to think we could pay the Iraq Resistance to destroy the jihadist strongholds in Iraq, foolish enough to be willing to attempt to buy ourselves respite from the jihadist. This is the shame-worthy cost and harvest of being willing to leave the battlefield with less than decisive Victory.

    In brief, for all our cost in “the War on Terror,” we remain, seemingly, squarely still on square one.

      Yes. ISIS in Mosul? This is a metasticizised malignancy all the way to Aleppo.

    “Unidentified gunmen assassinated the owner of the Zouhour Real Estates agency”

    Assassination is part and parcel of Islam.
