ISIS justifies raping slave girls, says Michelle Obama is `worth $40`

Washington: In the latest issue of Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant's (ISIS) propaganda magazine Dabiq, the terror group has carried an article justifying rape and enslavement of Yazidi women and reportedly stated that US First Lady Michelle Obama is 'worth $40'.

The article titled 'Slave girls or prostitutes' written by a suspected jihadi bride Umm Sumayyah Al-Muhajira states that the price of US President Barack Obama's wife 'won't even exceed a third of dinar, and a third of dinar is too much for her!'.

Defending the enslavement of young girls as sex slaves, the article goes on to state, “As for the slave-girl that was taken by the swords of men following the cheerful warrior then her enslavement is in opposition to human rights and copulation with her is rape?!

"What is wrong with you? How do you make such a judgement? What is your religion? What is your law? Rather, tell me who is your lord?'

She confirms the recent report by the United Nations (UN) which states that ISIS terrorists are picking out enslavement and sexual abuse of women, specially from Yazidi community and are given horrible punishment if they refuse.

According to Zainab Bangura, the special representative of the UN secretary general on sexual violence, the Islamic State picks the “prettiest virgins” after attacking their villages and then sell them as sex slaves in Syria, as per a news report in the Mirror.

She claims that the slave-girls who have escaped Islamic State captivity have “made up lies and wrote false stories”.

The jihadi bride had called on women to travel to Syria and become wives of the Islamic State fighters.

The ninth edition of the magazine also carries an article written by captive British photojournalist John Cantlie titled 'The Perfect Storm' which states that the 'explosive movement in Iraq has turned into a global phenomenon and and the democratic world and the West and the democratic world as a whole is ill-equipped to deal with'.
