  • ^ I don't believe it is the ISIS flag. There are many black flags with quranic verses in white. According to another news report on TV, it is a verse from the quran calling for 'community'. The locals interviewed said they didn't agree with ISIS as they were killing other muslims. Effectively going against the message in the flag.

    Also the Union Jack was used by the NF for many years, not illegal, just a shame.

    I would additionally be unsurprised if the locals in question responded somewhat rudely to journalists asking them "so, are you guys EXTREMISTS then? Can we get a jihadist soundbyte?". It must get a bit wearing to be appearing on the telly with "terrorist" as the descriptive banner underneath your face all the time.
