Endowments Ministry: ISIL acts in Iraq aimed at distorting Islam and destroying country

Ministry of Endowments stressed on Thursday that the so-called “Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant” and all takfiri terrorist organizations are trying to mislead many youngsters with their extremist thought under the title of religion and other sectarian titles and they are seeking to establish their “Islamic state” while in fact it is an attempt to distort religion and destroy countries.

In a statement, the ministry said what is happening in Iraq is a continuation of the takfiri scheme in the region, considering all takfiri extremist groups as “being misled and swayed away from the Holy Quran.”
