Only one group in this story kidnapped, raped, and butchered children. Then paraded their bodies around the city. Shortly thereafter it was discovered that they beheaded children, live streamed a grandmother’s execution on her own Facebook page for her friends & family to watch, called up the relatives of children they kidnapped to torment them… unfortunately the list of atrocities goes on.

I don’t think it’s helpful to equate one side to the other in this story. It’s important to call out pure evil when it’s committed.
