It's the veil, stupid

The Clarion Project has an article about the latest ugly turn in the war in the Middle East:

For the third time in a month, a veiled woman has shot dead Islamic State fighters in Mosul, Iraq. “A veiled woman carrying a pistol killed two fighters of the Islamic State in the early hours of the morning, near a checkpoint in the vicinity of Numaniya neighborhood in the city of Mosul. This phenomenon has raised ISIS concerns during the past weeks,” says a report from the news outlet al-Sumaria, quoted by Iraqi News.
ISIS has warned its fighters in the al-Sharqat area, which the terror group has controlled since June 2014.
Iraqi forces, with American air support, are currently advancing on Mosul and preparing to retake the city.
