ISIS demands muslim women to engage in Sexual Jihad. ("Let us rape you.")

http://www.clarionproject.org/news/isis-issues-orders-mosul-give-over-girls-sex-jihad#

Quote:
"Posters in public places in Mosul read:

“We call upon the people of this county to bring their unmarried girls so they can fulfill their duty in sex jihad for their warrior brothers in the city and anyone who will not appear will feel the full force of the sharia [Islamic law] upon him.”

Reports in Mosul indicate that ISIS fighters have been going door-to-door, entering houses, killing the men and raping the women."

Quote:
"Leaflets in the captured cities of Mosul and Tikrit claim the women – virgins or not – must join jihad, or Holy war, and cleanse themselves by sleeping with militants.

Those that refuse to do so are violating God’s will, it is claimed, and will be beaten or killed.

ISIS fighters have been taking women captive in Syria since last year when a Saudi-based cleric issued a fatwa – religious order telling them to. Now the sick practise is happening to Iraq.

Nasser Kataw, a lecturer at Baghdad University, said: “This is against all the teachings of Islam. They think the rape of women in this way is some kind of sexual jihad. It is not. It is a war crime.” "

I found the story via Germany's "Der Spiegel" http://www.spiegel.de/ , but they do seem a bit unenthusiastic when it comes to the accuracy of their articles.

For example, they follow a strict both-sides-do-it guideline when reporting about national US-politics, even when the facts don't fit the narrative. (Republicans block something? Why can't Democrats and Republicans simply get along and meet in the middle?)

And just a few minutes ago I read a badly-researched article on a new technology.

This is the 1st step in the propaganda machine much like the Iraqi throwing babies on the Hospital floors in desert storm.
