Look how US media strive to potray religious fanatics in Syria as moderate: the work of Ben Hubbard

"In a jab at the strict ideology of the ISIS jihadists, the statement told them not “to shed the blood of Muslims and be hasty in calling them heretics and apostates.” It also called on both sides to submit themselves to the Shariah Commission, a rebel-run court in the northern city of Aleppo, within 48 hours to resolve the problem."  Wait, Ben.  So in jab at their strict ideology they referred them to a Shari`ah commission? Are you kidding me? Referring them to a Shari`ah commission is an act of moderation and secularism by your book?  Did that passage really make sense to you?
