This is disastrous. ISIS’s massacres of Shia prisoners is designed to enflame sectarian violence and whip up such hatred against Sunnis that Sunnis will feel obligated to fight for ISIS to avoid revenge massacres.

All the news that I’m reading suggests that the conflict is directly shaping up on purely sectarian lines. This is far, far worse than Syria. May Allah SWT bring peace to Iraq swiftly. Aameen.

From my knowledge the shias in Iraq are doing alot worse with kidnapping and torturing any sunnis they find, as well as taking their homes by force and preventing them from getting any jobs in Iraq.
