IS publishes hit-list of muslim leaders... including radical islamists who are not radical enough

https://counterjihadreport.com/tag/dabiq/
(entry of April 13th, 2016)

The latest issue (number 14) of the Islamic State’s propaganda magazine, Dabiq, published April 13, contains a hitlist of Muslim leaders in the West.

...

Those whom the Islamic State is targeting are listed in a section entitled “Kill the Imams of Kufr (the infidels) in the West.”

It includes leaders from the US, Canada, the UK and Australia.

The list of leaders is very diverse and includes several who are linked to Islamist groups such as the Muslim Brotherhood, despite the fact that the Islamic State’s ideology is directly descended from that of the Muslim Brotherhood. Indeed the theme of the issue, entitled The Murtadd Brotherhood, is focused on the illegitimacy of the Muslim Brotherhood.

Others on the hit list are Salafi leaders, Sufis or politicians. It even includes one jihadist, Abū Basīr at-Tartūsī.




---------------

For example, the list contains the german salafist preacher Pierre Vogel. Pierre Vogel is a major player in muslim radicalization and extremism in Germany, but he said many times that terrorism is the wrong way to go. And that's why the IS wants him dead.




The IS is losing territory in Iraq and Syria... they are running out of soldiers so badly they have started recruiting child-soldiers...

The IS as a state will collapse and transform into an international network of terror-cells, just like Al-Qaeda.

LTTE killed more Tamils than Sinhala. MK killed more blacks than whites. This isn't exactly a new script.
