Nearly 4 million Syrians have fled the country as it has been devastated
by civil war. Now, as the refugees look for asylum elsewhere, some in
the United States worry that potential terrorists could be hiding among
them. Katie Couric explains. (click on link at end of article to view her weak story)
Beirut (AFP) - A Syrian
Christian fighter has beheaded an Islamic State group (IS) militant to
avenge people "executed" by the jihadists in northeastern Syria, a
monitor said on Friday.
The
Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the incident took place on
Thursday in Hasakeh province, where IS holds large areas of the
countryside.
According to the
monitor, the Christian fighter, a member of the minority Assyrian
community, found the jihadist in the local village of Tal Shamiram.
"He
took him prisoner and when he found out he was a member of IS, the
Assyrian fighter beheaded him in revenge for abuses committed by the
group in the region," Observatory chief Rami Abdel Rahman said.
The
Observatory is based in Britain but has covered the Syrian conflict
since it broke out four years ago thanks to a network of sources inside
the country.
The Christian
was fighting in the ranks of Kurdish forces who earlier this month drove
IS out of more than a dozen Assyrian villages the jihadists had
captured in Hasakeh.
IS has
carried out a wave of abuses in areas it controls in both Syria and
Iraq, including public beheadings, mass executions, enslavement and
rape.

Remember all the Christians that they have beheaded and made an International spectacle over?
Or have most forgotten already?
