ISIS Brutal Life And Video Filled With Propaganda by Godjone(m): 6:16pm On May 01, 2016
As a convoy of Isis vehicles travels down a desert road, a young man proudly carries the
black flag of jihad as he stands surrounded by
Kalashnikov-wielding militants. In slow motion, he leads the stream of fighters
to a clearing where they go on to call on their
fellow Europeans to join their jihad, before
shooting two prisoners dead. The man carrying the banner is Harry Sarfo, a former Royal Mail postman who went to
school and converted to Islam in London,
before entering a spiral of radicalisation that
would eventually see him training as an Isis
fighter in Syria. The 27-year-old, who is currently in prison
awaiting trial on terror charges after fleeing
the group’s brutal regime, said the bloody
reality was far from the jihadist fantasy
presented in the videos that initially attracted
him. Harry Sarfo's appearance in an Isis propaganda
video issued in August 2015, where two
prisoners were executed by militants
calling for terror attacks in the West In a wide-ranging interview conducted with
The Independent via his lawyer, he described
his experience appearing in one of the
group's notorious execution films. “When they speak in their videos with
weapons, it feels like they're calling you. We
need you here! Our brothers and sisters need
you! We bring peace, dignity and honour!” he
said. “But in reality it is all a lie - most videos are
staged. People are telling other people to kill
but themselves they don't fight at all. It's like a
movie, everyone is playing their role.” In the film Sarfo appeared in, titled Tourism in
this Community, he was shown sitting in
dappled sunlight among other fighters as a
German militant vowed revenge on his home
country for the Afghanistan war and urged
followers to join them in Syria or launch attacks in Europe. “If you cannot make hijrah to the Islamic
State, then seek jihad in Germany,” a jihadist
named as Yamin A Z tells the camera in
German. “Strike the infidels in their own homes, kill
them wherever you find them.” The video showed Mohamed Mahmoud
(pictured) and another miliant killing two
militants in Palmyra (YouTube) The next scene shows Yamin and Mohamed
Mahmoud, an Islamist from Austria, standing
over two kneeling prisoners in the ancient
ruins of Palmyra, which have since been re- captured by Syrian government forces. Vowing revenge on German Chancellor Angela
Merkel, Mahmoud orders viewers to “pick up a
big knife, go down to the streets and slaughter
every infidel you encounter”. He and Yamin then shoot both prisoners in the
head with automatic rifles. Sarfo, who was born in Germany but grew up
in the UK, insists he never personally killed
anyone but described witnessing countless
executions and atrocities while being trained
as a member of Isis’s “special forces” in Raqqa
from April to July last year. He recalled seeing six men shot in the head
with Kalashnikovs and watching a man having
his hand being chopped off and being forced
to hold it in his remaining hand. “Brother killing brothers - it is not just un-
Islamic, it is inhuman,” he said. “A blood-related brother killed his own brother
on suspicion of being a spy. Isis gave him the
order to kill him. Friends killing friends.”
