Like a stranger luring a kid into a car with a candy bar, ISIS has previously touted its sweet treats in its recruitment efforts. “If you were worried about leaving behind your local Costa Coffee then you will be happy to know that the Caliphate serves some of the best lattes and cappuccinos around,” British ISIS member Abu Rumaysah al-Britani wrote in May’s A Brief Guide to the Islamic State. For the jihadi sweet tooth, he noted, ISIS ice cream is “fluffy, velvety and sweet” and “Snickers, Kit Kat, Bounty, Twix, Kinder Surprise, Cadburys — yes, yes we have it all.” Yesterday, ISIS released photos of ice cream and smoothies being served in Iraq’s Kirkuk province.
