Statist idiots on the Iraq conflict: Militants 'MAY HAVE committed war crimes', says UN

Iraqi forces have hit back with air strikes near Tal Afar as the BBC's John Simpson reports

Sunni insurgents in northern Iraq have carried out summary executions of hundreds of captured soldiers, the UN's human rights chief says.

The systematic killings "almost certainly amounted to war crimes," according to Navi Pillay.

Her remarks came as the militants, led by the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIS), were reported to have seized the strategic city of Tal Afar.

The rebels occupied several key cities last week, but some towns were retaken.

Security in Baghdad has been stepped up after the insurgents threatened to march on the capital.

Reports are emerging that an army helicopter has been shot down in fierce clashes near the city of Fallujah, located just 70km (45 miles) west of Baghdad.

President Barack Obama says the United States is deploying up to 275 military personnel to Iraq to protect American interests there.
