http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/isis-fighters-crucify-17yearold-boy-in-syria-9802216.htmlIsis fighters have reportedly executed a 17-year-old boy and left his body on display on a cross in Syria.
Pictures being shared online show a banner attached to the teenagers chest saying the boy has been crucified for taking photos of Isis military bases, as well as receiving 500 Turkish lira for any footage taken.
The message describes the ruling for the alleged crime as apostasy and states the teenager has been killed and crucified for a period of three days as the punishment.
The alleged execution comes after it emerged Isis militants had beheaded their own fighters for spying and espionage.

(14,733 posts)are those who actually do care about the body after death. People who fear getting maimed, getting killed, having their friends and family killed or maimed are not going to be any more terrorized simply because they hang up dead bodies after they kill them.

(2,219 posts)UK Accused: 'We are not extreme - we are normal'
A British man accused of plotting a potential Mumbai-style attack was secretly recorded ranting in his car saying: " Terrorist - that's a great word," a court heard.
Erol Incedal, 26, from London, is on trial at the Old Bailey charged with preparing for an act of terrorism and possessing a terrorist document about bomb making.
The Old Bailey trial, which is being heard partly in secret, has heard his plans were scuppered after police stopped him for a motoring offence on September 30 and bugged his black Mercedes car. Two weeks later he was arrested on suspicion of being a terrorist.
Today the jury listened to a recording of a bugged conversation Incedal had with co-defendant Mounir Rarmoul-Bouhadjar about the definition of extremism and terror on October 6 last year.
Speaking in a heavy south London accent, Incedal said: "What does radical mean? Radical means you follow your principles to the core. Extremist: that's the word we don't agree with. We are not extreme. They are saying we are being extreme with our religion. We are not extreme with our religion."

(2,219 posts)but ISIS has a fair amount of support in the UK and France.
They are winning friends.

(2,219 posts)the increasing support of ISIS in the UK and France is going to have repercussions.
I think you know who supports ISIS in these countries. And I think you know what they do.
