ISIS fanatics feast while their subjects starve

ISIS fanatics feast while their subjects starve
23.06.2015 15:30
As ISIS fighters sit down for a feast in the holy Muslim month of Ramadan, those living under its barbaric regime are going hungry.

Undercover footage from the terror group's adopted capital of Raqqa in Syria shows hundreds of young boys and burqa-clad women queuing for food and water in the blistering heat.

While they starve, the terror group's soldiers share pictures of themselves sitting down to a hearty meal of fried fish, pickles, green salad and white rice.

Other bizarre images show the fighters' automatic rifles resting on the carpet beside silver platters full of fresh fruit and shining cutlery wrapped in dainty napkins.

The footage of women and young boys desperately waiting for food was shared by anti-ISIS activists Raqqa Is Being Slaughtered Silently on June 19.

A caption alongside it reads 'the second day Ramadan', the holy month when Muslims do not eat or drink from dawn until the sun has set.

It completely contradicts previous ISIS propaganda showing market stalls and shelves of grocery stores packed with fresh food.

As well as images of barbarity and beheadings, Islamic State often boasts on social media about how the eight million people living under its brutal reign in the Middle East and north Africa are well provided for.

It shares images of roads being paved and street signs being fixed in an attempt to portray it can take care of a massive population. 

Now in heartbreaking images the Islamic State PR machine would rather not be seen, the shockingly young children stand in line with empty buckets - waiting for food and water which may never come.

In April, Raqqa Is Being Slaughtered Silently shared more images of Islamic State's famished subjects queuing around the corner for food in the war-torn city.

One of the group's founders wrote the accompanying message: 'Lines waiting for some food. Yes this is the #ISIS State. Hunger, poverty and homelessness.'

For those lucky enough to have a home, Abu Ibrahim Raqqawi paints a bleak picture of life spent in the dark and cold for hours on end.

'The city suffers from a shortage of electricity where the power goes off for 21 hours in the day.'

Last week a former Morrisons security guard who left the UK to join ISlS in Syria tried to lure women to the country with promises of state benefits, cash bonuses, cheap bus travel and protection from airstrikes.

Omar Hussain - who is better known as the 'loneliest jihadi' - painted a picture of peace and prosperity inside ISIS-ruled Syria, saying it has been wrongly portrayed as a 'war-torn country with bombs dropping every day and dead bodies lying on the streets'.

But eyewitness accounts from the terror group's adopted capital of Raqqa - where ISIS carries out gruesome public executions - has revealed how severed heads are impaled on spikes and crucified bodies are left hanging in public for days.
