Ramadi battle: IS prepares to defend seized Iraqi city

Islamic State militants are preparing to defend the Iraqi city of Ramadi, witnesses say, as Iranian-backed militiamen gather east of the city.
Residents said IS fighters had set up defensive positions and laid landmines after capturing the city on Sunday.

Militants were also going door-to-door looking for government sympathisers and throwing bodies in the Euphrates river, residents were quoted as saying.

Thousands have fled the city and the UN has warned of a humanitarian crisis.

@EjmAlrai: #Sunni in #Anbar #Iraq are in the street and in green space around #Baghdad under a +40 degree C, escaping their city taken by #ISIS.

@EjmAlrai: It is impossible to count how many #Sunni refugee were displaced due to #ISIS advance in #Sunni area and the fierce attack following it.


@EjmAlrai: One thing is certain: The Arab #Sunni are the ones who are suffering the most from those who fight in their names #ISIS. #Iraq.

The Real Problem in Iraq

Over the weekend, as ISIS fighters rolled into Ramadi, the capital of Iraq’s Anbar Province, one of them posted a video to the Internet. It was shot from a recently captured Iraqi police station, and showed box after box of American mortar shells and bullets that appeared shiny and new. Several Humvees, apparently not long out of the packing crates, sat abandoned nearby. “This is how we get our weapons,” the narrator said in Arabic. “The Iraqi officials beg the Americans for weapons, and then they leave them here for us.”

Yezidi man stoned to death in Iraqi Kurdistan, community demands justice

Dohuk, Iraqi Kurdistan – A Yezidi organization said in a statement on Tuesday that the Yezidi citizen Musa Temmo was stoned and then shot dead in the city of Sulaymaniyah in the Iraqi Kurdistan last Sunday.

The victim was working as a guard in a construction company in Sulaymaniyah.

The movement of “Yezidis Across the World” issued a statement, of which ARA News received a copy, saying: “Obviously the heinous crime was carried out against Temmo on religious basis, and perpetrators are most likely co-workers, for the location is under security protection and cannot be penetrated easily unless someone passes through the checkpoints.”

The statement called on the judicial authorities in the Kurdistan Region to arrest the perpetrators as soon as possible to be tried publicly in sessions open to the media.

The movement’s statement also demanded to hold responsible all the Salafist clerics and imams who call for hatred and extremism in the Kurdistan Region. “Some clerics describe the Yezidis and Christians as apostates, demanding their killing,” according to the statement.

Speaking to ARA News, the writer and human rights activist and member of the movement, Dr. Saeed Seydo, said that the crime was carried out Sunday in a place that is well-fenced and can’t be easily accessed.

“According to M.N. (victim’s friend), the victim (Temmo) was threatened, humiliated and demanded to convert to Islam,” Seydo added, pointing out that the Yezidi young man was intending to leave his work next week.

“It’s not the first time that Yezidi workers are insulted, beaten, and even killed. There are many cases that took place in previous years in Iraq and the Kurdistan Region, but this crime exceeded the brutality of all other crimes, as the perpetrators stoned the victim with rocks and one of them shot the victim in the mouth,” Seydo said.

The source pointed out that the company, where the incident took place, is trying to prevent media from approaching the scene of the crime.

In the meantime, the MP in the Iraqi Parliament for the Yezidi community, Vian Dakhil, demanded on Tuesday the local authorities in the city of Sulaymaniyah in the Kurdistan Region to carry out an immediate investigation on the killing of the Yezidi man and uncover the circumstances of the incident to the public.

“We sadly received the news of the young Yezidi man’s death who was working as a guard for a company near the headquarters of a prominent political figure in the city of Sulaymaniyah. He was killed after being mercilessly rocked,” the MP said in a statement posted online.

“As we trust the judicial system in the Kurdistan Region, we stress the importance of punishing all those involved in this heinous crime, whether perpetrators or instigators, compensating the victim’s family in accordance with the laws,” she added.

Dozens of Yezidis demonstrated in the refugee camp of Issia in the city of Dohuk on Monday in protest against the killing of the young man Musa Temmo.

Het is toch triest dat de destijds zo dappere coalition of the willing, nu wanneer de Irakese bevolking het echt nodig heeft en hun verkregen vrijheden in gevaar lopen, zich zo weinig mogelijk proberen te bemoeien met de problematiek daar en slechts met halve maatregelen komen. Wanneer is de grens bereikt en gaat er écht geholpen worden? Natuurlijk maakt Iran het moeilijker met hun verouderde anti-imperialistische houding en invloed binnen sjiitisch (en politiek) Irak.. Maar ondertussen lijden er steeds meer mensen, dieren en dingen aan die chaos daar.

Zo krijg ik toch steeds meer vertrouwen in het Iraakse leger, de overwinning zal wel spoedig volgen dan.

Yezidis staan bekend om eerwraak, dus is vast wel iemand uit een achterlijke yezidi stam geweest.

Zover bakken die shia in het leger, milities en de overheid er weinig van.

Een arabier zou ik ook niet voeren trouwens.

Al die vluchtelingen zouden eigenlijk in de kampen moet blijven. Dan kunnen ze tenmindte voeding, zorg en eventueel onderwijs voor de kinderen krijgen. Nu is er totaal geen controle over
