Maybe he went under the guise of an "aid rescue thingey"
I'll upload his details so that when the SPJ Lads are out there they know to look for him

to be fair I only heard a snippet on the radio this morning and so just googled the headline. The thought that she was out there in Ukraine does seem a little far-fetched (but then the enemy of my enemy is my friend could explain it) but that is wishful thinking I guess frown

She has as much right to a battered minge as you have to a sore dick.

Still, unless she's some kind of war junkie without allegiances, it makes more sense for her to be in Syria or Iraq than the Ukraine.

The Russians do seem to have killed Kadyrov, one of the ginger bearded ISIS Chechens in Chechnya.

I think the point was a number of the women that go to fight end up as 'comfort women', by all accounts a very unpleasant way to wage jihad.

You really come across as a woman hating, life hating, semi literate little fool.

As I posted earlier:



Care to explain WTF an ISIS spin doctor is doing posting an image of a Kurdish eagle carrying off a (dead) ISIS rat? Or is the imagery far too subtle for your teeny weeny little brain?

You say "end up" but from what I'm reading they actually travel out there not to fight but to offer themselves as sexual comforters to the combatants.

So, far from being "a very unpleasant way to wage jihad" it would appear it's their preferred role in some cases. I suppose in their minds at least they get to help the war effort but without putting themselves in the line of fire.

So, you worked "minge", "dick" and "asshole" into 3 consecutive posts. Is this where I shout "Bingo!" ?

I'm not so sure.

If it's true that they do actually actually out there to offer themselves up then the cause they prostrate themselves for won't "wear off" so why should their perceived duty to it "wear off"?

I'm also pretty sure that they wouldn't go out there with a "romantic notion" of it. It would be a duty or calling to them.

Again, IF IT'S TRUE (and I think the jury is still out on this one) then it's a strange idea to get your head around for such an apparently conservative religion.

This has a little info:

60 days or so of the siege of Kobani.

There's a strange video showing outlying areas apparently deserted by the Daesh. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5yKKEfXkO0

Its significance is contested, but from the writing on the walls early on in what appears to be Arabic, it would seem that the Daesh have been there and that the YPG/YPJ have not got round to painting their stuff on the walls.

Ammunition said to be running low inside Kobani.

Male on male rape as an induction into ISIS?

First time I've come across it, but the THE ROJAVA REPORT has this:

"According to many of the men each ISIS member has both as member number and a ‘marriage’ (nikah) number. ‘Marriage’ in this context, however, refers to the rape of each recruit before he joins the organization and the recording of these rapes for use in blackmail. For example an ISIS member named Ferhan Salim Unûf Safên (born 1994) speaks of how he was kidnapped by a number of his acquaintances in ISIS and repeatedly sexually assaulted, saying “I fainted. When I came to they told me that I was on the side of ISIS in Cezaa. They told me to join. I told them that this wasn’t possible. They did things I can’t even imagine. Things that America did not do in Abu Ghraib, that Israelis didn’t do to the Palestinians. I am truly ashamed to speak of the. There were people named Mele Newaf, Hecî Mehmûd, Silêman Kohnê, Cinêd, Ebid and three of four more people I did not know. Their faces were covered. They performed ‘nikah’ (rape) around ten times.”

Ebdulkerîm Îbrahîm Bazo claimed that to undergo ‘nikah’ was a condition of membership and that such ceremonies were carried out quasi-religiously. Bazo said that “those who did this to me said that it would help me to gain strength and moral to fight.

Another ISIS fighter, Cinêd Cemîl Silêman, said that ISIS members used recorded tapes of his rape, or ‘nikah registration,’ in order to blackmail him, reporting “Silêman Kohnê took me to the village of Çem Çêlek. Here my nikah was officiated by Hecî Newaf Mele Mehmûd. They closed my eyes and brought me to another room. Here they performed my nikah. Later Silêman left me at home. Around 15 days later they came to us and told me it was necessary for me to completely join the organization. I didn’t want to. But they had footage on them. They threatened me by saying that if I did not join they would show the footage to my family.”"

Tape transcripts and a video here.

For sure, these guys are prisoners of the Kurds and may just be telling porkies to gain sympathy (or the Kurds might just be making the whole thing up).

Yeah, it's war, and during war most of what one side says about the other is exaggerated or even outright bullst.

Still, it helps galvanize the faithful.

Only the victors version of the truth will survive.

Yes, but male on male rape, and as a recruiting tool?

Normally on the enemy though not your colleagues.

If you were raped then sent out to fight alongside the people who raped you , wouldn't you get revenge now they've armed you?
