These Incredibly Brave Activists Expose The Terror Of Living Under ISIL Control
SUMMARY
The so-called Islamic State has people exposing its daily atrocities from the inside.
While the band of terrorists of The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) attempt to masquerade as a legitimate government in their de facto capital of Raqqa, Syria, a brave group of activists living inside the city have been documenting life under the brutal regime.

Known as Raqqa is Being Slaughtered Silently, the group posts photo, video, and social media updates from the city.
From The Daily Beast:
[The group] follows developments in ISIS very closely and appear to be well-sourced inside the city of Raqqa, which is the so-called Islamic State's capital. The group reported on a failed Jordanian attempt to rescue Muadh al Kasasbeh, a downed pilot from the Jordan Air Force, and his subsequent execution, burned alive, weeks before the hideous video of his murder was made public by ISIS.
Now, in an exclusive video interview from The Wall Street Journal, one of the activists has given his first in-person interview.
"Young guys they just think about going to the bars, meeting girls, and having girlfriends," the activist says in the video. "But I think about how I will expose ISIS. How I will make the world notice my city."
