Only a monstrous ISIS leader could recollect all the atrocities he sanctioned and crimes he ordered with pride and arrogance. No remorse in the confessions of this brutal ISIS leader. Like a list of life achievements, an arrested ISIS leader confessed to every injustice the group inflicted and all the brutal transgressions they committed with no sign of regret or remorse.
The arrest of an ISIS leader revealed a number of confessions on how the captive unleashed a wave of terrorism in occupied Mosul from 2014 to 2017. Shifa al-Nima, a Muslim “mufti” or religious scholar, confessed this month to issuing a string of rape-and-pillage “fatwas” that licensed ISIS fighters to kill and enslave. The jailed mufti provided a gruesome window into the terrorist army’s hold on Iraq’s second-largest city from 2014 until July 2017.
“I issued fatwas permitting the expulsion of Christians from Mosul, enslavement, selling Yezidi women,” the 300-pound-plus al-Nima confessed. He told his captors: “I issued the fatwas that punish the citizens who don’t go to mosques, a flogging fatwa for those who smoke cigarettes, and a fatwa requiring officials in the Iraqi security forces to obtain a repentant card and surrender their weapons. I also issued the fatwa requiring shop owners to pay taxes and I permitted killing of Shiites and issued other fatwas in regard to allowing ISIS fighters to enslave Yazidi women and sell them and killing the Yazidi men.”
“I also issued fatwas to confiscate houses of displaced people and permitted ISIS fighters to blow up mosques in Mosul which had graves of prophets and righteous people inside them,” al-Nima added. In his cringe-worthy recollection of facts, al-Nima provided a biography on how to become an inhumane violent extremist.
