<\/a><\/center><\/p>\nReuters<\/a> reports that an American citizen fighting for ISIS was surrounded and captured by peshmerga forces in Iraq. They say that he has an American driver’s license in the name of Khweis Mohammed Jamal and that he speaks English and broken Arabic, but that he was dressed in black.<\/p>\n [Two Kurdish officers, one of whom arrested him]said it appeared the man was intending to escape both Islamic State and Kurdish forces but handed himself in after peshmerga fighters opened fire on him near the frontline in the village of Golat.<\/p>\n Captain Daham Khalaf said they had spotted the fighter hiding in long grass around dawn and waited until the sun rose before surrounding him: “He shouted ‘I am a foreigner’,” Khalaf said, describing him as bearded and dressed in black.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n I guess he wasn’t having a good time with the boys of ISIS and his intention was to escape from the group. I suppose man-love Thursdays were a real pain in the ass. Peshmerga say that they fed him and then turned him over to intelligence folks in the neighborhood.<\/p>\n The New York Times<\/a> says that the 27-year-old was born in Virginia. The Kurdish news<\/a> says that he went to Syria two months ago and that he was trying to get to Turkey when he got disoriented and ended up in Kurdistan. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
