[QUOTE]The 29-minute film released on Sunday portrays Christians as crusaders out to kill Muslims. It then goes on to show about 15 men beheaded on a beach and another 15 shot in the head in scrubland. A masked fighter brandishing a pistol delivers a long statement, saying Christians had to convert to Islam or pay a special tax prescribed by the Qur’an. “Muslim blood shed under the hands of your religions is not cheap,” he says, looking at the camera. “To the nation of the cross, we are now back again.” The video then switches between footage of the two apparent massacres.
The film bore the logo of Isis’s media arm, al-Furqan, and resembled previous footage it has released, including a video in February showing [URL="http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/feb/15/isis-21-egyptian-coptic-christians-beheading-libya"]militants in Libya beheading 21 captured Egyptian Coptic Christians[/URL].
The Egyptian president, Abdel Fatah al-Sisi, ordered air strikes on Isis targets in[URL="http://www.theguardian.com/world/libya"]Libya[/URL] in February in retaliation for the murders.
Isis has gained a foothold in Libya as two governments backed by rival militia alliances battle each other and other extremist groups.
Egypt called for an international intervention against the jihadists in Libya but western diplomats expressed reservations, saying a political deal must be the priority.
A US-led coalition of western and Arab nations is carrying out an air war against Isis in Syria and in Iraq, where pro-government forces have managed in recent months to retake some territory seized by the group.
The group’s attacks have raised fears for Christians across the Middle East and been condemned by religious leaders. The head of the Church of England, Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby, was in Egypt on Sunday to offer his condolences over the beheadings of the Copts in Libya. He was to meet President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, Sheikh Ahmed al-Tayeb, grand imam of Al-Azhar, the highest Sunni Muslim authority, and Coptic Pope Tawadros II.[/QUOTE]

Damn it, Daesh.
Nevermind, it doesn't matter anyway.
ISIS is really starting to look like an actual army. Not that looks have anything to do with ability.

If I gathered a few thousand retards into one place and gave them guns, they'd look like an army too.
These fucks aren't long for this world.
Fucking animals.
Western Powers have mastered the art of ousting unwanted governments and dictators, but they've yet to learn acctually replacing them and bringing peace.
Power Vacuum is never a good thing. One of the major reasons IS became to be a international thingy than a bunch of bandits around Anbar province.
