What’d you think? It would be a picnic?
Via NY Post:
Islamic State defectors have revealed why they jumped ship in an eye-opening report that lists boredom and a lack of luxury cars among the factors.
The paper based on the testimonies of 58 former militants describes how uncomfortable conditions, in-fighting, corruption, brutality and being handed a suicide mission were all among the deal-breakers.
Identifying why the jihadi dream turned sour for these individuals could be key to dissuading others from joining the extremist group and encouraging them to leave.
Unfortunately, leaving IS is not as easy as simply deciding to walk, with many defectors executed as “spies” and “traitors” when they try to escape.
