Default ANGEL OF DEATH: Axe Wielding Militia Commander is Striking Fear Into ISIS Fighters

http://controversialtimes.com/news/a...isis-fighters/







His legend in Iraq is growing on a nearly hourly basis. Known as Azrael, the Archangel of Death in Islam, this bearded massive militia fighter is basically public enemy number 1 for ISIS fighters.



His past, especially in the English speaking world, is murky at best. Some say he is a martial arts master turned militia fighter. Other say he was a university professor before the rise of the Islamic State.



Some rumors say he possesses supernatural fighting abilities.



Most interestingly, and despite how true the legends are, or are not, this man and the people supporting him are beating ISIS at their own game – public perception and social media. A Facebook page for the fighter has nearly 300,000 fans and features numerous photos of him looking every part the anti-ISIS enforcer. Some posts garner tens of thousands of likes.


Badass!

The articles I read on this dude have been calling him Abu Azrael, "Father of the Archangel of death."

Dude is so bad ass he outweighs Allah's handy-work. Total respect for the badassery.

I almost bought one of those, but after thinking about it I doubted that I would ever have to disable two vehicles with one shot.
