UK: Rich, Porsche-driving Muslim barrister gives it all up to join the Islamic State in Syria

Islamic State beheads men for “mocking Islam,” “pledging allegiance to infidels”
Breitbart has numerous photos that are extraordinarily gory and graphic. It must be remembered that the Islamic State jihadis know that these photos are horrifying and revolting. They do not, however, think they will damage their standing among the Muslims to whom they are trying to appeal; quite the contrary. This is because the Qur’an […]
