39-year-old Wahida Mohamed – better known as Um Hanadi – leads an army of around 70 men in the area of Shirqat, a town 50 miles south of Mosul, Iraq.

She and her men recently helped government forces drive ISIS out of the area, but their efforts came at a cost.

Hanadi explains:

I began fighting the terrorists in 2004, working with Iraqi security forces and the coalition.

On the times she’s bad car bombs planted outside her home:

2006, 2009, 2010, three car bombs in 2013 and in 2014.

Get this – during that time period ISIS killed her husband, then killed her SECOND husband, her father and three brothers.

Not only that, they also slaughtered every last one of her sheep, dogs and birds.

But all that didn’t stop me from fighting.

I fought them. I beheaded them. I cooked their heads, I burned their bodies.

This is all documented. You can see it on my Facebook page.

Indeed her Facebook page contains photos of her holding a freshly severed head, another with two severed heads in a cooking pot, and another where she’s standing among partially-burned corpses. Lovely.

Here we were thinking that we’d need to keep battering ISIS with 20 tonne bombs or rely on Seal Team 6 to take them down properly. Turns out all you really need is a pissed off, middle-aged Iraqi housewife with a sword and a huge appetite for revenge.

Safe to say ISIS fucked up big time messing with this gal, just like the time they murdered this guy’s son and lived to regret it.
