Copycat savagery
October 23, 2014
Two kinds of savages have stoned Syrians to death: those, more recently, who claim to do it in the name of God, in defiance of His commandments, and those who proclaim they do it in the name of Bashar Assad, under his commandment.
Selective outrage, both by Assad loyalists and by international watchers, ensured that videos filmed by savage Assad shabbihas themselves as they tortured and stoned young men to death were either deemed "unverifiable independently” or conveniently ignored; videos filmed by savage ISIS warriors as they stoned a young woman to death, in contrast, have covered virtual walls and generated repulsion, as indeed they should.
Assad's savages have a head start of several years and a few hundred thousand victims, but ISIS is just as happy to starve, torture, stone, butcher and bomb - if not gas - our people to death. The Assad regime and ISIS are both savages, and they must both be stopped.
