ISIL prisoners get a taste of their own medicine: ‘Oh you ISISissies’

Special to WorldTribune.com

A group of Islamic State of Iraq and Levant (ISIL) prisoners were given a taste of how it feels to be lined up for slaughter.

In a video released on Dec. 8 by the Levant Front, a group of rival jihadists, the ISIL prisoners are put on their knees with their potential executioners standing behind them.

The video is not unlike several ISIL has posted online in which the terror group carries out brutal executions, but in this one, just as the ISIL prisoners likely voided their bladders, they were spared – and lectured.

In the video, translated by MEMRI, the captors tell the ISIL prisoners, “Oh Muslim youth, we are not lovers of killing and slaughtering. We do not enjoy fear and terror.”

The mock executioners then holster their weapons, take off their masks and walk away.

The ISIL prisoners are then given a sermon from Sheikh Muhammad Al-Khatib, the head of the Islamic Law Bureau of the Levant Front.

“It is our duty to place these prisoners on trial and to treat them with justice. To those who were tempted (by ISIL) we offer guidance. To those who strayed from the right path we offer shelter,” the sheikh tells the prisoners.

“Oh you ISISissies of extremism and darkness, while black masks are your trademark, ours is white clarity. While beheadings are your religion and your hobby, our religion lies in reform and in the strengthening of the faith,” he adds.

The sheikh goes on to say that “those who repent will be pardoned, but those who continue to wage war against fellow Muslims will be subject to the sword.”
