ISIS Put IED Inside Of A Quran
Kurdish Peshmerga fighters found an IED placed inside of a Koran. It is believed that it was left on the sidewalk to target civilians who support the Peshmerga.
A recent video (link below) appears to show Kurdish Peshmerga fighters finding an IED hidden by ISIS inside of a Quran. The video also appears to show the IED after it has been disarmed by a local ordnance team. It is believed that this IED was meant by ISIS to target civilians who may have been supporting the Peshmerga. I recall some pretty surprising hiding spots for IEDs used by AQI during OIF, but never heard of an IED being placed inside the Quran itself.

My first thought is that the Islamic State terrorists (thugs) don't pay much attention to Islam.
My second thought is that there was an uproar when Americans destroyed copies of the Quran. Where's the outrage now?

I was the RCE JOC SGM when that happened ..it was much to do about nothing...and it was locally a much smaller deal than portrayed outside RCE. It caused issues no doubt,,,and it was a rally cry for some for sure.

Wouldn't this be akin to burning the Q'uran? It should be publicized throughout the Arab world to show the blasphemy of ISIS. Raise more ire against their horrific practices.

Vile. Dispicable. Everything we have come to expect from their organization.

SFC Mark Merino -- Uncle Mark, you are on point on this one. And a quick glance at a listing of all their beheading incidents reinforces your stance as well: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISIL_beheading_incidents
ISIL beheading incidents - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Beginning in 2014, a number of people from various countries were beheaded by Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL or ISIS), a radical Sunni Islamist group operating in Iraq and parts of Syria.

And unfortunately, the entire Muslim community gets the black eye. Thank God for Jordan taking such a strong stance. They are essential in keeping their twisted PR campaign from showing opposition to ISIL as a Holy War. Jordan's King was just featured on PBS news as stating that they will not give up the fight until they have run out of fuel and bullets. I haven't heard such resolve since the great speeches from the era of the Greatest Generation!
