Shiite Jihadist Vows to Sacrifice Camel If He Can Kill Iraqi Vice President

If you’ve ever wanted to travel back in time to the distant past, that’s what the Muslim Middle East is for. Here we have the charming tale of a simple man. An ordinary man. A man with a camel who likes to drink coca cola.

And there’s only one thing he likes more than giving him camel coca cola. Drilling heads. Or possibly battering them to death with concrete blocks. Okay maybe two things.

And while he may love his camel, he loves the idea of killing the Vice President of Iraq even more.

Shiite militants have posted a video on YouTube celebrating Abu Deraa returned following years of being untraceable in Iran. In the video, he appeared talking with armed men who belong to a militia he leads in Baghdad. An officer appeared in the video, standing behind him for protection.

“He is said to take personal delight in killing — sometimes with a bullet to the head, sometimes by driving a drill into the skulls of his victims. On other occasions, Iraqis say, he gives them a choice of being shot or battered to death with concrete building blocks,” the report said.

And they say Muslims don’t believe in freedom of choice.

The 44-year-old man appears in the video short and bold with a light, black beard. In different video he appeared pouring the Cola into a camel’s throat and telling him: “Drink it all.”

He vowed to sacrifice that camel if he succeeded in killing Tariq al-Hashimi, Iraq’s former vice-president, who is a Sunni.

I suspect the camel will outlive both of them.

Challenged on claims that he has ruthlessly killed thousands of Sunnis, his only answer is to invoke a simple Islamic prayer that is a part of the Arabic vernacular – “Inshallah”, which means “God willing”.

Religion of peace. Also camel sacrificing and skull drilling.
