ISIS kills al-Qaeda, al-Qaeda kills ISIS, it’s all good.

Via Daily Mail:

Savage jihadis fighting for the Islamic State in Syria have brutally beheaded 12 men accused of fighting for the terror group’s Al Qaeda and Jaish al-Islam rivals.

Filmed close to Syrian capital and regime stronghold Damascus, the sickening footage shows the terrified men being interviewed and paraded in front of the camera before their bloody execution.

After ‘confessing’ to the crime of opposing ISIS and failing to declare allegiance to the terror group’s bloodthirsty leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the men are led out into a desert clearing where they are forced to their knees and each man executed by a different masked member of the Islamic State.

The video – titled Repent Before Being Overcome – was released by the lesser known Damascus branch of the Islamic State but bears all the high-tech hallmarks of the terror group’s other slick and professionally edited murder videos.

Hollywood-style graphics begin the clip and show the 12 victims hunched over as they are dragged through a remote stretch of desert to the site where they will be murdered.

The men walk uncomfortably due to the way their arms are bound, with each forced to wear to bright orange jumpsuits now synonymous with the fanatics depraved beheading films.

Curiously the men are led to the site by heavily armed men wearing full battle fatigues but with their faces totally exposed. The victims are then handed over to executioners, who cover their faces.

In a slick bit of editing before the murders, the footage momentarily rewinds and fades into a montage of Al Qaeda and Jaish al-Islam fighters battling ISIS.

This is likely to be a kind of reminder to the video’s viewers that the three jihadi groups remain fierce rivals despite having a common enemy in Syrian president Bashar al-Assad.

The overall theme of the video is along the same lines, and sends a clear signal to other rebel groups fighting in Syria that they must declare allegiance to ISIS ‘before being overcome’.

While speaking directly into the camera, the men appear clean-shave – a rarity for jihadis and something likely to have been intended to humiliate the men before they are killed.
