Regarding your comment about Sharia law, and being “… new to the faith” I thought this excerpt from The Week newsmagazine (Oct 24, page 7) provides additional insight into the genuinely savage nature of Radical Islam. It turns out there are a lot of women recently captured who were “new to the faith” which is one way to put it.
“ISIS Takes Sex Slaves. The Islamic State of Syria and Iraq has offered its explanation for why its fighters are taking Iraqi women and girls as sex slaves. “The Revival of Savagery Before the Hour”, an article in the latest edition of ISIS’s English language magazine, Dabiq, says the group’s extreme version of Sharia law allows for enslavement and forced marriage of infidels, including members of Iraq’s Yazidi religious minority. Thousands of Yazidi girls and women are thought to have been captured by ISIS militants and taken to Syria since August. Yazidi refugees tell of “forced marriage, and even sexual assault and slavery” said Fred Abrahams a special advisor at Human Rights Watch.”

I think the article could have been much better written and much more informative. It hinted at what the writer thought but actually said little. It is a puff piece. From what I could glean, the websites mentioned told women how to be a good Muslim wife under Sharia law. Since a woman raised in the faith knows this, the websites should be for those new to the faith. Since I could not understand them, I don't know for sure.
These websites are not for women who have been captured. They are for those who have converted of their own will.
Please understand that I find ISIL abhorrent. I cannot understand those who want to leave their country, families, friends to take up arms and kill innocent people. They are traitors and should be treated accordingly. I would love to see ISIL completely annihilated, as I would any other extremist group. My biggest fear is that whenever one is eliminated, another, even worse group emerges.
