SUMMARY:

The protest came after a young man from the town shot dead an IS judge and two of his bodyguards before turning the gun on himself. 

“A man from the countryside around Manbij, dressed as an IS militant, opened fire on the judge and two of his colleagues before killing himself,” a local activist known as Abu al-Baraa told local news site Syria Net.

According to the activist, the judge – a Tunisian national – had previously ordered the man’s brother and uncle to be executed by beheading for “photographing IS strongholds”.

‘Revenge’ attack on IS judge in Syria prompts rare protest against militant rule

Residents in neighbouring towns have demonstrated and burned tyres to protest executions for ‘apostasy’ and spying for the anti-IS coalition

Manbij’s local IS-linked courthouse, whose judge was shot dead in a ‘revenge’ attack this week – 19 November 2015 13:47 UTC

A small town in northern Syria has erupted in rare protest against rule by the Islamic State group, after a resident killed a judge loyal to the group.

Locals took to the streets of Manbaj, a town of less than 100,000 in the northern Aleppo province, on Wednesday to demand an end to IS rule, activists have said. 

The protest came after a young man from the town shot dead an IS judge and two of his bodyguards before turning the gun on himself. 

“A man from the countryside around Manbij, dressed as an IS militant, opened fire on the judge and two of his colleagues before killing himself,” a local activist known as Abu al-Baraa told local news site Syria Net.

According to the activist, the judge – a Tunisian national – had previously ordered the man’s brother and uncle to be executed by beheading for “photographing IS strongholds”.

An eyewitness who spoke to ARA news on condition of anonymity said the man “took revenge and then killed himself to avoid falling into the hands of [IS]“.

Locals gathered in a town square in the wake of the attack, chanting “Out, out, out – ISIS get out,” according to unverified footage purportedly from the scene.

Wednesday’s protest was the third time in recent weeks that residents of Manbij have protested against IS, according to local journalist Adnan al-Hussein.

Last week a group of local women calling themselves Girls of the Levant assassinated a female member of IS in Manbij, local activist Welat Bekir said on Wednesday.

Some 20 kilometres west of Manbij, the tiny town of Arima saw fierce protests the following day, according to pro-rebel news site Manbij News Network, with residents burning tyres and throwing stones at IS militants.

The protests came after militants in control of the town executed six young men on charges of “apostasy and spying for the anti-IS coalition”.

  • Isis shot at protesters after during the protest, and arrested protests, a number of people were hurt.
    ^why miss that bit out, :roll:

    • Alan: My assumption was that ISIS would do that and worse to the protesters. Why didn’t I include? Because I copy and pasted the article, that’s why. (As you can see from the url provided, their last sentence is “The protests came after militants in control of the town executed six young men on charges of “apostasy and spying for the anti-IS coalition”.”

      Now you can ask, well why didn’t the article include? Who knows, but it’s completely obvious that it’s not “sympathy for ISIS” given the rest of the reporting here and elsewhere at the entire website, so presumably either an outright glitch uploading or more likely they didn’t have that information at time of uploading. Where is your source for “shot at protesters after during the protest” [sic]?

      If you want to be helpful to not just me but all beforeitsnews readers, why don’t you include the url so we can find that news about the shootings?

      • Warning: sole director of Middle East Eye. Ltd “is Jamal Bassasso who was a former director of planning and human resources at Al Jazeera” (wikipedia) which is worth knowing if you know who Al Jazeera *really* is.

        If you don’t: Al Jazeera being “Doha-based state-funded broadcaster owned by the Al Jazeera Media Network, which is partly funded by the House of Thani, the ruling family of Qatar” Or in plain English, the U.S.-backed Qatari dictatorship that along with the Saudi dictatorship, have been trying to overthrow the secular Syrian government by force by funding jihadists. So they “don’t necessarily” want ISIS to win (a few elements do…mostly the rulers don’t) they are happy if non-ISIS but brutal jihadis “friendly with” their Saudi/Qatari dictatorships are the ones to overthrow the Syrian government. Fortunately the Qatari/Saudi/Turkish plans are starting to unravel quite notably.

        In any case, last night, Saturday night, this was the first article I found with a good picture and video, about the anti-ISIS uprising so I wanted to upload it as soon as possible to BIN.
