A
British fighter who travelled to Iraq to stop the Islamic State claims
the terror group fed a murdered kidnap victim to his own mother after
she went to their headquarters and demanded to see him.
Yasir
Abdulla, a security guard from Keighley, West Yorkshire decided to go
to Iraq and fight against ISIS after hearing they came within six miles
of taking control of his home village in Kurdistan, which he left in
2000.
It
has been reported that the 36-year-old bought a set to combat fatigues
online for £100 before going to Kurdistan and buying an assault rifle.

He
then joined hundreds of other Kurdish and Peshmerga forces who are
trying to stop the spread of ISIS by patrolling a ten-mile front line in
Iraq.
Mr Abdulla returned to the UK last week but told The Sun
how an elderly Kurdish woman, whose son was captured by ISIS and taken
to Mosul, went to meet the jihadis to try and secure his release and was
then fed his body.

Slaughter: Mr Abdulla with a member of ISIS who he said was killed after he beheaded a Kurd
The father of four told the newspaper: 'She was determined to find her son and went to ISIS headquarters and asked to see him.
'The
ISIS men told her to sit down because she had travelled a long way and
said she should have some food before they took her to meet her son.
'They brought her cups of tea and fed her a meal of cooked meat, rice and soup. She thought they were kind.
'But
they had killed him and chopped him up and after she finished the meal
and asked to see her son they laughed and said "You've just eaten him."'
During
his time on the front line, Mr Abdulla revealed how ISIS are
terrorising locals by calling them and threatening to kidnap them and
bury them alive unless they surrender.
He
also told of how the terror group kill prisoners they capture by
throwing them on a 'human bonfire' and that he saw his own cousin killed
in an ISIS attack.
But
despite returning back to his family in Yorkshire, Mr Abdulla is keen
to go back to Kurdistan saying he wants to finish the job in defeating
ISIS.
The
new details about the cruelty of ISIS come as Iraq's prime minister
called on tribal fighters to abandon the jihadis ahead of an offensive
to retake Saddam Hussein's hometown of Tikrit from extremists.
Haider
al-Abadi offered no timeline for an attack on Tikrit, 80 miles north of
Baghdad, which fell into the hands of ISIS last summer.

TERRORISTS HIDE MESSAGES IN PORN IMAGES AND EBAY SALES
ISIS and Al Qaeda are hiding messages to their followers in digitally-altered eBay photos and even pornography, a book claims.
Investigative
journalist Gordon Thomas said Al Qaeda has used the tactic of
'steganography' - concealing messages in audio clips or images widely
available online - to encode items listed for sale on the auction site.
It
works by manipulating a sound waveform or the order of pixels in a
small or invisible part of an image, a process not unlike the way
teletext used to be delivered on analogue TVs.
Now Israeli intelligence service Mossad believes ISIS militants are doing the same, according to Mr Thomas.
One
intelligence source told him messages are often hidden on Reddit or
'X-rated pornographic pictures which conceal documents and orders for
the next target'.
The
claims are contained within new chapters of Mr Thomas' book Gideon's
Spies, an extract of which was published yesterday by the New York Post.
However,
Shiite militias and Iraqi security forces have stationed themselves
around Tikrit as state-run media has warned that the city 'will soon
return to its people.'
Tikrit,
which occasionally saw attacks on U.S. forces during the American
occupation of the country, is one of the biggest cities held by ISIS.
It also sits on the road to Mosul, Iraq's second-largest city, which is also held by the extremists.
It
has also been revealed that in February alone, violence across Iraq
killed at least 1,100 Iraqis, including more than 600 civilians,
according to the the UN Assistance Mission in Iraq.
UN envoy Nickolay Mladenov blamed the deaths on the extremist group, government forces and pro-government Shiite militias.
He explained: 'Daily terrorist attacks perpetrated by ISIS continue to deliberately target all Iraqis.
'There also concerning reports of a number of revenge killings by armed groups in areas recently liberated from ISIS.'
Last
year was the deadliest in Iraq since its 2006-2007 sectarian bloodshed,
with a total of 12,282 people killed and 23,126 wounded, according to
the UN.
