Fresh on the heels of the Muslim Brotherhood crucifying opponents in Egypt comes this report from Yemen. These are Islamic hardliners who do everything by the Koran. The Koran says: "Indeed, the penalty for those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger and strive upon earth [to cause] corruption is none but that they be killed or crucified or that their hands and feet be cut off from opposite sides or that they be exiled from the land" (5:33).
Man Crucified By Al-Qaeda-Affiliated Ansar Al-Shari'a For Allegedly Directing U.S. Drones In Yemen – Video Posted On YouTube – Warning: Graphic Images
On August 27, 2012, a member of the leading jihadi forum Shumoukh Al-Islam posted a YouTube link to a video showing a man accused of spying for the U.S. by placing chips to direct drones targeting terrorists being crucified on an electric pylon in Abyan province in south of Yemen. A sign placed above the man's head shows the group's flag and verse 5:33 of the Koran, which reads: "The recompense of those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger and do mischief in the land is only that they shall be killed or crucified or their hands and their feet be cut off from opposite sides, or be exiled from the land. That is their disgrace in this world, and a great torment is theirs in the Hereafter."Despite being uploaded on February 22, 2012, it appears that the video has been made available recently as suggested by the low number of views and the recently made comments. Based on the date of the video, it is safe to say that the crucified man is Saleh Ahmed Saleh Al-Jamely who was executed on February 12, 2012 after being convicted by a court managed by Al-Qaeda-affiliated Ansar Al-Shari'a.Al-Jamely was accused of spying and placing two chips in two cars that were later targeted by U.S. drones. According to a statement issued by the Islamic court of Waqqar Emirate in Abyan Governorate, dated February 10, 2012, in that attack, ten members of Ansar Al-Shari'a were killed. The other two men, Hassan Naji Hassan Al-Naqeeb - accused of recruiting, delivering chips, and paying spies; and Ramzi Muhammad Qaid Al-Ariqi - accused of spying for the Saudi intelligence by taking photographs of several buildings, were executed in public, but not crucified.[1]Endnote:[1] See MEMRI JTTM Report No. 4729 In Yemen, Al-Qaeda-Affiliated Ansar Al-Shari'a Executes 'Saudi Spy,' Wanted for Communicating with U.S. Drone Operation Center, May 14, 2012.
