In Graphic Photos and On Twitter, ISIS Members Record and Tout Executions of Gays - The Daily Beast

In Graphic Photos and On Twitter, ISIS Members Record and Tout Executions of Gays - The Daily Beast: These are obscene images. They depict two men thrown from the roof of a building as a crowd watches them fall to their deaths, and they purport to show the Islamic State (or ISIS) carrying out public executions before an audience in Iraq’s Nineveh province.



The two victims’ alleged crimes? They are believed to be gay. In another photo, woman accused of being an adulterer is stoned to death, and two men charged with thievery are bound to crucifixes. Victims are commonly crucified, sometimes after they have been killed, in ISIS public executions.
