(Syria) In the city of Raqqa, ISIS, that barbaric Islamist group which has lots more Islamic blood on its hands than Israel, has decided that as men aren't allowed to go near women (well, it is a gay death cult), they have set up teams of females covered from head to toe in black to go around and arrest women who they feel aren't subscribing to their warped version of Islam.
Which is why ISIS raided the city's Hamida Taher Girls School and arrested 10 students, two teachers and a secretary on the grounds that some of them were wearing veils that were too thin. Others were accused of wearing hair clips under the veil, pinning them in a way that showed too much of their faces. The women subsequently spent six hours in an ISIS detention center where they were whipped. "After arresting those women and girls," continues al-Hamza, "they took them to ISIS prisons and locked them in for six hours and punished some of them with 30 whips each."
Zainab is a local teen who was arrested by female members of ISIS four months ago. "I was walking down the street when a car suddenly stopped and a group of armed women got out," she says. "They insulted me and yelled at me. They took me to one of their centers and kept me locked in a room. Nobody talked to me or told me the reason for my detention. One of the women in the brigade came over, pointing her firearm at me. She then tested my knowledge of prayer, fasting and hijab."
The terrorist told Zainab she had been arrested because she had been walking alone, without an escort, and because her hijab was not worn properly. "You should be punished for taking your religion lightly," she told Zainab, before threatening harsher punishment should she be arrested again. Two hours later, she was released. But for Zainab – and other women here – the message was clear.
Yet, for some strange reason, the thousands of people who protested yesterday over Israel remain silent on ISIS.
Funny that?
