“When you meet the unbelievers, strike the necks…” (Qur’an 47:4)
“Isis: Man accused of ‘witchcraft’ decapitated in town square,” by Priya Joshi, International Business Times, April 8, 2015 (thanks to Block Ness):
Islamic State militants in Iraq have beheaded a man accused of practising sorcery and witchcraft.
Harrowing images of the killing have emerged on social media and have been shared by supporters of the terror group.
While the exact nature of the crime the victim is accused of is not known, images of his death were uploaded to Twitter claiming that he was a ‘sorcerer’.
The first in a series of gruesome photos shows the blindfolded and bound man wearing a brown jumpsuit, as a bearded terrorist wields an 18-inch long kukri machete into the air ready to decapitate the victim.
A second image shows a close-up of the man’s lifeless body, with his severed head resting on his back. Brightly-coloured prayer beads, which the man may have been selling, surround his lifeless body. The bodies of British and American hostages beheaded by ISIS’ British executioner Mohammed Emwazi, also known as Jihadi John, were placed in the same position.
A huge crowd is gathered at the scene to witness the public execution, with young men and children lining up in a town square and jostling to get a better view as the heinous execution is carried out.
The execution is believed to have taken place near Tikrit in Iraq’s Salah al-Din province.
One of the people distributing the shocking pictures is a man claiming to be a British militant fighting for the terror group who goes by the nom de guerre Abu Bakr al-Britani.
Palestinians fleeing the horrors of the Islamic State (Isis) jihadists who have seized the Yarmouk refugee camp in Damascus have recounted barbaric details of the extremist group’s practices. 16-year-old Amjad Yaaqub, told AFP that he saw IS members “playing with a severed head as if it was a football”.
On March 30, horrific images were released showing Islamic State militants stoning a blindfolded and bound man and woman to death in Iraq. The couple were sentenced to death for having sex before marriage….

I heard about this on radio BBC:
Something about a man being treated as a ‘Guest of Honor’ by ISIS hosts during an Interfaith Dialog conference.
BBC claimed that ISIS kindly took off the man’s hat.

Who needs entertainment like movies, TV or music when Islam is willing to provide this?(sarcasm) They probably provided “kiddy” chairs for the children up front so they had a better view.
Gee, this makes me feel all “warm and fuzzy” for Islam
I’m tired of feeling this way!!
There will probably be a new fatwa issued soon. No soccer balls, but the use of heads is OK.

I refereed a high-school soccer game in Florida about 12 years ago. Hulk Hogan’s son was playing and Hulk had a front-row sideline seat along with several hundred students. Hulk restricted himself to demanding NFL-style Television replays of any of my decisions that want against his son. He was funny and everybody, including me, enjoyed ourselves.
Oh what a difference in cultures makes.

Finally, an atrocity that the liberal media can claim that Christians did, too! Salem Witch Trials, anyone?
Oh, wait… that was in 1692, not 2015, and the Christian church as a whole recognise that the witch trials were wrong on many levels, while Muslims worldwide applaud the actions of the Islamic State.
Nimrod says
At least with the Salem Witch Trials there was a trial involved. They at least get some points for that, as does the judge who resigned based on the ridiculousness of the whole thing. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salem_witch_trials
This ISIS stuff is probably more like the medieval mob witch burnings/hangings in medieval Europe. And my guess is that the guy accused of “witchcraft” was probably politically unpopular with some leaders yet they couldn’t come up with any better Islamic justification for killing him.
Anyone running off to join ISIS seems unlikely to get any rights whatsoever, not even the crappy rights reserved only for Muslims under sharia law.

Aren’t witches and warlocks supposed to be able to wriggle out of difficult situations by casting spells and stuff? satan’s slaves and true worshippers of his beast pretending to rid their community of satan’s slaves.
Victims…they just have to slaughter more victims and invite the young to watch so the young will have their natural conscience against such barbarity burned beyond feeling and when the current murderers are too old to cut the mustard, or have been killed by their own or their enemies bombs, there will be plenty of newer murderers to take over and seek out more victims. Their goal is to subjugate all, all of the way to a tortured death.

………………………
Of course, the horrifying “Kingdom of the Two Holy Places”—Saudi Arabia—also persecutes and murders “witches”.
More:
While the exact nature of the crime the victim is accused of is not known, images of his death were uploaded to Twitter claiming that he was a ‘sorcerer’…

………………………
His selling prayer beads—widely used by devout Muslims, incidentally—may be the entire basis of the accusation of “witchcraft”, since some pious Muslims consider them Haram.
Here’s a “scholarly” debate on this stupid subject at Islam Q & A:
http://islamqa.info/en/3009
This is partly based on their being “Bi’da”—an “innovation”—not used by the “Prophet”. This is Islam, where prayer beads are considered an unacceptable “innovation”, but Kalashnikovs, IEDs, and watching beheadings on your iphone are not…
God, I hate Islam.

Actually that’s exactly what I suspected! If really, as many in the west would have us believe, human civilization or civility has immensely progressed over let’s say, 2000 years ago, the world, especially the west, wouldn’t be watching all this while still enabling Islam and obfuscating its role in all these barbaric, primitive, vicious, satanic anti human acts!
No wonder many people, me included, are totally disenchanted with almost all supposed western leaders.
jay says
But but muh Palestinians! Isn’t this entire Islamic rash of insanity all due to the poor oppressed Palestinians? They’re killing them? It’s almost as if they have nothing to do with it and are just a useful tool to further their agenda and Jew hating.

A competent sorcerer would have turned the arresting officers into cockroaches and stamped on them.

You’d have to be a good sorcerer to change one to a life form that much higher. Changing Muslims to slime would be a smaller step.
duh_swami says
This poor guy was no witch…Most likely no one executed for witchcraft is an actual witch. A real witch has a boiling caldron of witches brew. For that, you need access to frog legs. I doubt there is a big market for frogs legs in ISIS held territory…

THE OUTCRY FROM THE LIBERALS?
‘ THIS IS ISRAEL’S FAULT”.
The latter, I would expect, would come form such great statesmen as Fidel Castro & Jimmy Carter. Both of whom claim that Israel and the Mossad set up the ISIS.
