ISIS militant reveals global ambitions and selective targeting of 'infidels'

A chilling admission from an ISIS militant on death row in Somalia sheds light on the terror group's relentless pursuit of global dominance. Muthar Hamid Qaayid, a 24-year-old ISIS commander, sniper, and bomb squad member, claimed that his bombs "don’t kill everyone, only infidels." Qaayid, captured in Somalia, was part of a network of militants from countries including Tunisia, Libya, Tanzania, Kenya, Turkey, Argentina, Bangladesh, and Sweden, underscoring ISIS's international reach.
During questioning, Qaayid revealed that ISIS's ultimate goal is to "rule the world," starting with Somalia as a gateway to Ethiopia and beyond. US and Somali counterterrorism forces have targeted ISIS's global headquarters in Puntland's caves, which fund and direct operations worldwide. Qaayid's candid statements, filmed by Sky News, highlight ISIS's strategic vision and its ruthless ideology, which justifies violence against non-believers.
The militant's remarks reflect a disturbing combination of religious radicalism and global ambition, underscoring the ongoing threat posed by ISIS to global security. His confession serves as a stark reminder of the need for relentless counterterrorism efforts to combat this ideology and protect innocent lives.
