'Blood up to your knees': defeated IS jihadists still defiant
Defeated but unrepentant, some jihadists limping out of their besieged final bastion in eastern Syria still praise the Islamic State and promise bloody vengeance against its enemies.
The skeletal and disheveled figures shuffling out of the smoldering ashes of the "caliphate" may look like a procession of zombies, but their devotion seems intact.
At an outpost for US-backed forces outside the besieged village of Baghouz, 10 women stand in front of journalists, pointing their index fingers to the sky in a gesture used by IS supporters to proclaim the oneness of God.
They shout in unison: "The Islamic State is here to stay!"
Most refuse to disclose their names or nationalities.
Indistinguishable under their identical black robes, a group of women arriving at the screening point manned by the Syrian Democratic Forces swarm around reporters like hornets.
Some throw rocks at the cameras of those trying to film them, while one screams at a photographer and calls him a pig.
Another grabs the uncovered hair of a female reporter, saying: "Have you not read the Koran, are you not ashamed?"
The end game of cognitive dissonance - they thought they had the moral and cultural high ground and then they were reduced to living on the run. Top it off, they were captured and recorded by women. I seriously doubt that these people can be rehabilitated. Send them to Guantanamo for the rest of their natural lives.
