ISIS Using Humans As Guinea Pigs To Test Chemical Weapons

Militant Islamist fighters parade on military vehicles along the streets of northern Raqqa province June 30, 2014. Militant Islamist fighters held a parade in Syria's northern Raqqa province to celebrate their declaration of an Islamic "caliphate" after the group captured territory in neighbouring Iraq, a monitoring service said. The Islamic State, an al Qaeda offshoot previously known as Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), posted pictures online on Sunday of people waving black flags from cars and holding guns in the air, the SITE monitoring service said.

The Islamic State (ISIS) is using humans as guinea pigs to test out the effects of chemical weapons before deploying them against Western forces.
Internal documents sourced from the recaptured Mosul University and obtained by The Times show that ISIS has experimented with poisoning prisoners through the use of chemical compounds like thalium.
The documents show that researchers fed one of the prisoners thalium sulphate, and he died a painful death 10 days later after suffering from brain swelling.
ISIS researchers also used a nicotine compound on another prisoner. The compound has no antidote, and the prisoner died within hours.
