Horrific: Angelina Jolie tells of ISIS Raping Women and Children

Angelina Jolie doesn’t just play a heroine on screen.  She continually uses her celebrity status to stand up for the poor and oppressed around the world as well.  And this week, she is using her platform to take on the evils of ISIS.

Hollywood star Angelina Jolie today told the Houses of Parliament that ISIS is using rape as the ‘centrepoint of their terror’ as she warned of the destruction caused by sexual violence in conflict zones.

The actress and human rights activist spoke of the harrowing moment she met girls as young as seven who had been brutally raped in war zones.

Jolie, who is giving evidence to a Lords committee, said jihadist fanatics in the ‘most aggressive terrorist group in the world’ were using sex attacks as a ‘very effective weapon’.

She said the use of rape by ISIS as a ‘policy’ was a new horror that the world had not seen before and urged a ‘very, very strong response’ to the terror group in Iraq and Syria.

ISIS leaders have now institutionalized rape, turning the rape of their victims into an act of worship to Allah.  Disgusting!  It seems their evil knows no bounds.

Each day it gets harder and harder to hear about the horrific actions of ISIS.  But we can’t look away.  Our Christian brothers and sisters who are being tortured and killed by ISIS need our help.

I am so thankful that Angelina is speaking up on behalf of the women and children who are being tortured and raped by ISIS.

If those in Hollywood can recognize the evils and threat of ISIS, isn’t it time that our White House take it seriously as well? These radical jihadists will stop at nothing.  So we must stop at nothing to defeat them once and for all!
