Paraded in cages 'to be burned alive' like Jordanian pilot: ISIS releases video

Heads bowed in terror the orange-clad Kurdish fighters are paraded through streets filled with jeering militants in the latest horrifying video release from Islamic State.

In a grim echo of the terrible fate which befell Jordanian pilot Lieutenant Muath al-Kaseasbeh the captives, reportedly Peshmerga fighters, are dressed in orange jumpsuits and shackled in cages. 

Just as Lt. al-Kaseasbeh was burned alive on camera, IS are planning to do the same with their latest prisoners, according to posts on social media.

But the Pentagon said the capture of the town did not represent a major setback in the war effort against the Islamists who have overrun large areas of Iraq and Syria.

'This is arguably the first in at least a couple of months, if not more, where they (IS) have had any success at all at taking any new ground,' Kirby said.

'So this is an enemy that we still assess to be in a defensive posture.'

He added: 'It's one town. It's not all of Anbar. It's not all of Iraq.

'We need to keep it in perspective.'

On Wednesday President Obama formally requested from Congress the authority to use military force in the war against ISIS.

The proposal does not ask for the deployment of ground troops.

During a press conference the president said: 'Our coalition is on the offensive, ISIL is on the defensive and ISIL is going to lose.'

Yes, there are going to be problems... the “wild donkey of a man” is still running around very much alive there. Nuances can still be seen. Not all nominally Islamic societies are equally bad, nor are all Arabic peoples.

The gospel imperative of bless our enemies remains. We shouldn’t be stupid about it, but the time for damning it all to hell hasn’t arrived yet and it’s God’s time and way in which it will occur.

We have plenty of woes at home. I hope domestic Christendom learns a huge lesson about both love and integrity from the gay fiasco, no matter what the USSC comes up with this June.

If you believe as I do, that the current battles are about solidifying the borders of the Kurdish region, Kirkuk has been ceded to ISIL. It is apparently beyond the desired Kurdish boundary.

The city is within the new Sunni controlled region that is neither Kurd nor Shia. Therefore, neither the Peshmerga nor the Shia militia will fight for it.

The first thought must be that Iraq is no more. The nation was split asunder into three. Kurd, Sunni/Isil and Shia

It is like trying plug all the holes in a dyke.

Perhaps you meant "dike"? Or perhaps you have a randy sense of humor?

If we see the day when our Marines are in that cage, I can only pray that the Lord comes quickly, because the endtimes are upon us. I believe that Obama is a curse and judgement upon this country for turning our backs on Jesus.

I have a similar thought... the attempt to make it democratic only gave a power to the people that ripped it apart.

I hope that maybe they can find peace in three pieces. Sunni is the same faction as Saudi Arabia, and they do passably well as a kingdom. As guerillas they are simply trouble.

We indeed invited our own curse.

It isn’t necessarily irreversible, but recovery depends on us being willing to turn back to the Lord and accept His grace. technically it is called repentance, but we have to remember that all we can do is come before the Lord bankrupt with empty souls and hands and ask to be filled again, dedicating these new gains back to the Lord. We can’t even present Him one good work of our own.

If we had the stiff resolve to do it. Even among evils, ISIS is definitely chief.

And as for the Marines being there... under an Obamist regime it is pretty likely that this would be for some kind of Kabuki dance which is all about him, all about him.

Obama is “part” of such a curse which American Christendom invited when it slighted the Lord rather than delighting in the Lord. The fault isn’t God’s, it isn’t even Satan’s. We have reason to know what both of them stand for. It’s ours.

Yes, but....

I don’t believe it was “ripped apart” The seams have been there forever. What is in progress is re-establishing just precisely where the seams are.

The Ottoman empire existed with these internal regions. The Brits and the Frogs divided up the territory with no regard to the existing religious and tribal boundaries. Those very old boundaries that are now a little vague are being solidified.

Regarding ISIL, I think Russia and 1917. The revolutions was stolen by the communists. The radical fanatic wackos are trying to steal the revolution in the Sunni territory that was previously part of both Syria and Iraq. That theft became possible when Obama deserted the coalition in say November of 2013.

I think ISIL is being allowed to do this boundary work. Once it is done, the adults will take control as they did in Egypt. Keep in mind that much of the wacko force is zealots from elsewhere. That is from relative comfortable else where. I think they will not chose to live in the desert villages and will return from whence they came.

The real important fact is that we do not really know what is happening. Since Obama always lies about everything, he is totally untrustworthy. The real work, minus Obama who is left out , is being done off stage.

or..... something like all that

A great opportunity for the western worlds militaries to take some target practice on ISIS and yet they do nothing.
No one with any balls to lead—so this murderous gang rages on. What a travesty.

Iraq was an artificial construct of the British colonial era anyhow. But still, it had been nominally operating as one. Now those ties are burst. There are now three ‘stans being re-formed.

Nothing to gain I guess... except for the principle, which is inspired by a Judeo-Christian God, but has no earthly advocates, it seems.

Everyone was “horrified” when the Jordanian pilot was murdered brutally, but nobody did anything about it. So now the bearded subhuman savages are going to do it again, multiple times. No one should be surprised at this!

0 didn’t think it was important enough for the US to obliterate the reptile-brain prehumans, so they lived another day to murder again.

As for outrage, there’s room for outrage when an American attacks a member of the ROP. Now that really gets 0 roaring mad.

There is a point to be made that there are a billion muzzies over there and they’re letting 50k of them go around burning people. At some point they have to defend themselves, assuming they’re not all sympathizers to the isis cause.

Your observation is all the proof anyone needs that even Bush, after 9-11, failed to do what was needed to destroy the threat that islam is. He fought a limited, PC war that never even came remotely close to attriting the militant to the degree that, historically, is necessary to DO the job.
