Jihad Watch

Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Islamic State burns alive two caged Turkish soldiers

Dec 25, 2016 12:09 am By Robert Spencer

Obama and others often invoke the Islamic State’s murders of other Muslims to support their claim that the Islamic State is un-Islamic. But since Islamic law mandates death for apostasy and heresy, this doesn’t establish their point.

They burned these soldiers alive probably because they believe that they were involved in burning areas under Islamic State or other jihadi control. “So whoever has assaulted you, then assault him in the same way that he has assaulted you.” (Qur’an 2:194)

“WATCH: New ISIS Video Burns 2 Caged Turkish Soldiers to Death in Aleppo,” by S. J. Prince, Heavy, December 23, 2016:

In a new video purportedly released by the Islamic State titled “The Cross Shield,” 2 soldiers with the Turkish Army are burned to death in the Aleppo countryside. The video was released on ISIS terrorist channels on December 22. Aleppo was recently retaken by the Syrian government with the help of Russia and Turkey.

The Syrian government recently retook the eastern portion of the city that had been held by Syrian rebels, not including ISIS. According to the BBC, “The Syrian government is waiting for the Aleppo evacuations to be completed before troops move into the rebel enclave and take full control of the city.”

However, ISIS is still fighting Assad forces, his allies, and Turkey in the region. Al-Masdar News reports that yesterday three Turkish Army soldiers were killed and another ten others were wounded in a surprise attack claimed by the Islamic State.

ISIS controls the Syrian city of Al-Bab, which it uses as a command point for raids on eastern Aleppo, a mere 15-minute drive away. Turkey is currently trying to take Al-Bab, with Reuters reporting that “Turkish air strikes on Wednesday destroyed 67 Islamic State targets” in the city.

The new ISIS video centers on Turkish airstrikes and civilians in Al-Bab allegedly killed by them.

The video begins with a brief about Turkey President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s involvement in Syria with Assad, Putin, and Obama. Turkey officially entered the Syrian Civil War in August. In November, Erdogan stated that Turkish entry in Syria was to end Assad rule, but he has since retracted that statement, according to Hurriyet Daily News.

Turkey is also using its involvement in Syria as a proxy war with the Kurdish Federation of Northern Syria – Rojava, which it views as a terorrist organization, according to Middle East Eye.

Later in the video, footage of alleged Turkish airstrikes in Al-Bab and ISIS-conducted suicide bombings are shown. The video includes footage of civilian casualties of alleged Turkish airstrikes in Al-Bab. Civilian casualties of Turkish airstrikes have been confirmed in the past, according to Human Rights Watch.

In the execution portion of the 19-minute video, two Turkish soldiers are shown in a cage with collars around their necks. In the video, ISIS calls them “dogs.”…

          So you say, the mojority of muslims are not supporting jihadis? Why than counting electronic messages and social media posts brings out the numbers that over 80% of muslimes agree with the acts?!
          Like days ago, speaking to muslime, who called himself ‘moderate’ and his friends should not know. After a few arguments he stated ‘if god tells us the killing of nonmuslimes is to be done, than this is fine!’ — there is no such thing as moderate islam, there only is THE islam.

          The idea that most Muslims reject Jihad is absolute bs. Violent Jihad is a core tenet of Islam, and was practiced by the vicious “Prophet” himself. He deemed dying while slaughtering unbelievers to be the highest attainment of Islam, and the only guarantee of reaching paradise.

      This is the sort of torture and murder that we find in the Sira especially … as well as in Islamic history.

      Caliph Abu Bakr al Baghdadi, PhD in Islamic studies approves and orders these actions and often writes a fatwa to his troops so they commit CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY with a clear conscience.

        Muslims are just being Msllims….following the teachings of their
        pedophile master muhammad.. Some may seem to be tame…but when grouped with those who are more radical they all will follow those who are more radical.
        This is partly from fear but mostly just Muslims being Muslims…..and mainly from the fact that they don’t follow the CHRISTIAN WAY……The WAY being LOVE…something that is not in their upbringing…Therefore they are just Muslims being Muslims…

          Thank you Gravenimage, there is a very important new development that may take Erdogan to Lahey court of justice; The assassin of russian envoy Mr Karlov “Mevlut Altintas” has been identified and closely related with Erdogan and interior minister Suleyman Soylu who directed the recovery operation and actually killed the assassin instead of capturing alive.. Erdogan was putting blame on CIA related Gulen movement thus blaming US and teaming up with Russia. But now it’s clear that Assassin is from Erdogan’s religious groups (eg. Nurettin Yildiz Hodja), Just several hours ago the government brought press and TV ban on the topic of Karlov’s Assassination…!? I hope that Trump and Putin will see this satanic movement of Erdogan.

    These ISIS barbarians have no place in civilized societies.

    If citizens of western countries go to fight with ISIS they should be stripped of their citizenship and not allowed back in any western country.

    As for Angela Merkel and her minions who decided it would be a great idea to allow a migrant invasion despite ISIS making clear it would insert half a million ISIS members among those migrants, we have seen the results of that this Christmas season. The 2017 elections will be the time of reckoning for Angela Merkel and other European leaders who supported and allowed the migrant invasion. They will be turfed from office.

      Even if the first generation muslime migrants does well, there is no garanty there kills will not go full terminator! late 60s first muslime migation wave to Germany, already in early 70s was realised as mistake. There is no garanty a muslim stays peaceful in the West. If there religion, that is so damn important to them, why then even come here?!? If I do not like heat, I do not move to Nevada.

    • Rufolino says

      Dec 25, 2016 at 7:05 am

      Regrettably, Merkel will probably not be turned from office next year. Germany is too far gone in repentant political correctness. Many Germans are prepared to tolerate almost anything from the Islamic invaders and Merkel will continue to tell them to do so. Unfortunately Islamic intolerance will eventually win the battle -and then in Germany there will be no more tolerance, it will cease to exist.

      • DFD says

        Dec 25, 2016 at 12:34 pm

        I Beg to differ. If Merkel wins the election in September 2017, which at the moment is quite probable given her total control of the media, then, within a year Germany will blow. She will then resign or be forcibly removed. Unless the ‘cleansing’ of her party, CDU, continues, and/or the exodus of CDU members to the AfD continues – or both.

        Of course, every atrocity will reduce her chances and that of her far left coalition drastically, whilst improving the chances for the new middle or centre party; i.e., the AfD.

    Them claiming civilian casualties is yet another of Islam’s many hypocrisies. There is no distinction between military and civilian live in Islam. Everybody, women, children, old people included, is by definition a fighter for the cause of Allah and contributes within his or her means, by battle or by support.

    This is why the world should hang, in public, every person they catch that supports ISIS. Physically, or any support. The world has no place for these 7th century muslims.

    be poured upon their heads to melt their skins and that which is in their bellies;

    We are all still waiting in UK for one word of condemnation for these monsters to come from the London Mayor, one Sadiq Khan.

    In fact we haven’t heard any words of condemnation for these primitive barbarians from any prominent Muslims in UK. Pretty much par for the course, then.

    The ignorance of our political leaders is truly terrifying and they must be driven from office and replaced with those who know what they are dealing with.
