Buried Alive: ISIS Killing ISIS
You read that right, the Islamic State are killing
their own. In an attempt to flee the battlefields in Iraq, this
barbaric group of jihadist terrorists are burying alive a barbaric
group of jihadist terrorists.
The notoriously destructive and demonic Islamic State is known for
treating those who oppose their sick way of life or those who
desert from their fields of blood, with death.
It appears that if you live by ISIS, you die by ISIS.

ISIS
buries 35 of its fighters alive after they fled the battlefield
fighting Iraqi forces
Sara
Malm – Daily Mail
ISIS has reportedly buried 35 of
its fighters alive after they fled the battlefield in northern
Iraq.
The men were fighting Iraqi government forces near the village of
Bashir, 12 miles south of Kirkuk on May 1, AhlulBayt News Agency
(ABNA) reports.
But they were sentenced to death by ISIS leaders after they
deserted the field and the terrorist group lost control of the
village. The men were buried alive on the outskirts of Qayyarah,
about 35 miles south of Mosul, ABNA reports.
ISIS has had several defeats in northern Iraq in recent weeks, most
recently on Monday when Iraqi forces retook Kabrouk, about 60 miles
from Bashir.
In March, Iraq's military opened a new front against the militants
in the Makhmour area and called it the first phase of a wider campaign
to liberate Mosul, about 40 miles further north. But progress has
been slow, and to date Iraqi forces have taken just five villages.
'In a swift operation, our units took the groups of the terrorist
organisation Daesh by surprise and entered the village (Kabrouk),'
read a statement from the Nineveh Operations Command, using an
Arabic acronym for Islamic State.
A source involved in the operation said the militants put up little
resistance in the village of Kabrouk.
The advance brings Iraqi forces slightly closer to the oil town of
Qayyara on the western banks of the Tigris River. Taking control of
Qayyara would help to isolate Mosul from territory that ISIS holds
further south and east.
An air base about 10 miles west of the river that US forces used
following the 2003 invasion could serve as a staging ground for the
Mosul offensive. Kurdish Peshmerga forces and a range of militia
groups may take part.
The offensive's faltering start has cast renewed doubt on the
capabilities of the Iraqi army, which retreated in disarray when
Islamic State seized Mosul in June 2014.
Nineveh Operations Commander Major General Najm al-Jabouri blamed
the slow pace on a lack of troops.
'If it weren't for the limited units, we could have advanced
further, but we don't have forces to hold ground,' he told Reuters
in a recent interview.
His forces had no tanks and were fighting without the elite
counter-terrorism forces that have spearheaded most of Iraq’s
successful offensives elsewhere, Jabouri said.
Islamic State’s use of civilians as human shields has also hampered
Iraqi forces.
US Army Colonel Steve Warren, a spokesman for the US-led coalition,
said more troops would be deployed to Makhmour and that 'tens of
thousands' were needed for the final push on Mosul.
'We knew that the fighting would get harder the further north we
went and we are seeing that to be the case,' he told Reuters.
Iraqi officials say they will retake Mosul this year. But in
private many question whether that is possible. The pace of
fighting could slow further as temperatures continue to rise and
the month-long Ramadan season begins in early June.
