If the bombing in Jurf al-Sakhar was indeed the work of the Islamic State, it is a tacit admission of weakness: they were not able to hold the town, so instead content themselves with striking “terror into the hearts of the enemies of Allah” (Qur’an 8:60). “Car bombings in Iraq kill at least 38 people,” […]

Nigeria: 10-year-old female jihad-martyrdom suicide bomber arrested
