Surrender or be shot in the face, senior US soldier tells ISIS
Straits Times ^ | 1/10/18 | Staff

US troops and their allies will shoot Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) militants in the face, beat them to death with shovels or drop bombs on them if they don't surrender, the US military's most senior enlisted member has said.

In an eyebrow-raising set of postings on social media on Tuesday, Command Sergeant Major John Troxell warned that ISIS members who refuse to quit will be dispatched with "extreme prejudice," including via a small shovel known as an entrenching tool.

"If they surrender, we will safeguard them to their detainee facility cell, provide them chow, a cot and due process," Troxell wrote on Facebook.

"HOWEVER, if they choose not to surrender, then we will kill them with extreme prejudice, whether that be through security force assistance, by dropping bombs on them, shooting them in the face, or beating them to death with our entrenching tools," he added.

Should simply say surrender or die. Renounce Islam or die.

Hussein Obama is deeply saddened.

Preferably kill them all. But no more GD’md qurans for those surrendering.

That’s going old school by ‘beating them to death with entrenching tools.’

The entire message sounds reasonable to me. Should have been done years ago.

what the good sergeant is trying to say is the ISIS can surrender to the Americans and live to face justice, or they can deal with locals who they have spent the last five years beheading, crucifying, burning to death, raping, pressing and generally committing crimes against humanity on.

If Clara Peller, “Where’s the beef!” Peller, were alive and reading this ROE change regarding militant Islam, she would not doubt simply state, “Where’s the bacon!”

The greatest threat to ISIS followers would be that if they didn’t surrender...they will be castrated.
