Jihadists — carrying out summary executions on Iraqi soldiers and civilians alike — mixed their blood-thirsty march through Iraq with Twitter and posted a sickening reference to the ongoing World Cup.
As shocking images of the ISIS insurgency continue to be released, the Islamist group are using social media to post barbaric videos online with the intent of showing the world they will stop at nothing to achieve their end game — including tweeting the graphic photo of a police officer's decapitated head with the perverse message: 'This is our ball. It is made of skin #WorldCup."
The post has since been deleted.
In one, which is too graphic to publish, ISIS fighters are seen knocking on the door of the Sunni police major in the dead of night.
When he answers, they blindfold and cuff him. Then they carve off his head with a knife in his own bedroom as sweetly lilting religious hymns are played over the top.
Although this figure has not been verified, the UN today warned that hundreds of people are likely to have been killed by the fanatics since the uprising.
On Friday, President Barack Obama ruled out sending troops back into combat in Iraq but promised to review military options — including air strikes.
ISIS also claims to have executed 1,700 Shia soldiers on their push for the capital city of Baghdad.
Hopefully, people will turn away long enough from the scoreboard and see what's going on over there.
