If they’ll shoot a mentally disabled gas station clerk for saying “I’m not the lord of petrol”, then nobody is safe

That’s what happens when you go from Operation Flytrap to Lord of the Flies.

Their leader was captured by Americans in 2005 and spent 4 years in jail. He was released in 2009.

Why surrender if they are just going to saw your head off anyway?!

Hell! Make them EARN it! Don't just give up only to be tortured and killed anyway...

I've never understood the concept of surrender when facing certain death... I mean, aren't you dead either way? Might as well fight. :-/

I think it's a little more complicated than that, as one astute Freeper pointed out.

The ISIL is a Sunni militia that began taking over Sunni-dominated cities in Iraq. The Iraqi police and military personnel in those areas capitulated as much out of a sense of loyalty as anything else. We can all be pretty sure that the Shi'ites in the Baghdad area won't be surrendering like that -- and it looks like they may have Iranian military support behind them, too.

I’ll give a lollipop to anyone that finds an article published prior to this week mentioning this ‘ISIS’ group. Yet they’re now poised to take over the middle east.

Sure.

Isis means the same as Ishtar, Easter, Astarte, and Semiramis, the pagan goddess of fertility.

It is the Illuminati’s replacement for Yehova.

You can view this sudden insertion in the same sense as GHW Bush’s Thousand Points of Light.

A lollipop?

You have a lot of confidence in your assertion I see.

If this is true, the cowardice and incompetence of the Iraqi military and individual soldier knows no bounds.

I wouldn’t be surprised if it was MOST of these guys. Why anyone would surrender is beyond me.

It’s not “surrender OR die” with ISIL - it’s “surrender AND die.”

So, fight to the end.
