Meanwhile, somewhere in Mozambique...



In case you assumed ISIS (alias ISIL, IS, Islamic State and Daesh) had disappeared...better think again.

It turns out that the killer cult is alive and kicking in Mozambique, of all places. Unsurprisingly, they have formed an alliance with local ruby smugglers, proving (again) that ISIS is at bottom a criminal operation pure and simple, although organized as a fanatical religious group.

The appearence of ISIS in Mozambique isn't so strange as it may seem. The Middle East and East Africa had connections long before Islam even existed. The northern region of Mozambique where the cult operates is traditionally Muslim. And they have rubies...
