ISIS urges Syria rebels to focus on defeating the “Nusayris”

In an audio message posted online Sunday the Al-Qaeda-linked Islamic State of Iraq and Greater Syria (ISIS) appealed to other Syria rebel groups to head off infighting, and focus instead on defeating the Alawite regime.

“Today, the (Islamic) state is reaching out to you to stop fighting us and to focus on fighting the “Nusayris”,” the voice in the message, purportedly that of ISIS chief Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, said, using the term often used by jihadists when referring to the Syrian regime.

Alawites revere Ali (Ali ibn Abi Talib), and the name “Alawi” means followers of Ali. The sect is believed to have been founded by Ibn Nusayr during the 8th century. For this reason, Alawites are sometimes called “Nusayris”.

Syrian rebels fighting ISIS in the north of the country on Wednesday killed a jihadist leader in the town of Saraqeb, activists said.

“ISIS’s emir in Saraqeb (Idlib province) Abul Baraa was shot dead this morning,” said Rami Abdel Rahman, director of the Britain-based monitoring group.

Abul Baraa, a Belgian jihadist of Arab origin, last week warned Syrian rebels to halt an anti-ISIS offensive they launched early January or face suicide attacks against their positions.

About 1000 jihadist and rebel fighters have been killed in 15 days of combat pitting the two sides against each other.

      This is a Al-Qaeda propaganda news and they deliberately posted that photo in order to get some support. This is not the first time I see it. You may notice this in some other article too. If this is Bagdadi then there is no reason for Bagdadi to hide his face. No one really knows whether that Bagdadi is shia or a sunni or something else. They are very secretive because they have something to hide.

    The Syrian rebel started the struggle against the Assad regime. This ISIL sneaked in and occupied some places along with the oil field. It was known that they didnt stop the oil supply to the regime. The same infighting was conducted by this group in Iraq when the sunni rebel in Iraq was doing good against the occupation force.These are the mercenaries , they were kicked out from Iraq’s Anbar province by the sunni fighters. They flee to Iran when the US invaded Afghanistan. There presence in Afghanistan and their subsequent calming responsibility of 911 and London 7/7 attack gave the occupation force the pretext they needed. They are totally exposed in Syria as a Iranian fifth column. In last two days two of their suicide bombers were shot dead by the Syrian rebel. Its better for Bagdadi to withdraw his forces and go back to Iraq to face the sunnis who will grill them there too.

    1. Better for them to withdraw to their financier Iran.

  5. Maybe Isis should’ve followed their own advice before the Syrians turned on them. Fools.
