Kinda brilliant http://nieuws.tpo.nl/2015/12/08/vide...-nep-executie/ (vid)

Don't worry about watching the video, nothing ugly. IS isn't the only one who is good at making video's.

Fake execution

Sorry, should have posted explantion with it. These IS militants think they are going to be executed but they are just let go after they got a lecture. It's pretty brilliant imho. Instead of killing them they take of their bivak-masks and unchain their captives and just let them go unharmed. Nice act of chivalry imho.

Brilliant if it works. But it will be interesting to see how it plays out, I dont think we have much of a precident using that tactic on religious extremists.
