Captagon allows those fighting in Syria to stay in battle for hours, often with no food or sleep

I read something about this the other day, and I do wonder ….

The ISIS Drug Fiends: ‘Homemade cocaine’ fuelling jihadis and triggering psychosis
PSYCHOTIC ISIS fighters are using a notorious cheap, easy-to-produce cocaine-like drug which allows them to keep fighting for hours on end, often with little food or sleep. It also triggers psychotic episodes.

There is some evidence the killers who struck in Paris last Friday may have been high on the drug, which is produced by ISIS chemists and sells across Syria and the Middle East for as little as 90p a tablet.

Captagon, the trade name of a now banned German drug designed to treat ADHD, has in it’s copy-cat home-made form, for years been the narcotic of choice for many in the Middle East.

The drug, whose generic name is Fenethylline, increases aggression at higher doses and abusers can have aural and visual hallucinations, psychotic episodes or extreme dysphoria that manifests as paranoia or depression. It also carries the risk of heart failure or brain haemorrhages, followed by death.

Apparently, they may also be selling the drug, a good source of income.

    Not surprising. Evil feeds upon evil, in this case perhaps literally.

    They can also keep coming at their targets (even after being shot) to finish the job.

    For many years Rush Limbaugh has said that the Muslims do not believe if they blow themselves up in the name of Allah that it is the fast track to 72 virgins. Rush said if that was the case we would be seeing it everyday, in every country. These barbarians may well be hopped up on some type of drugs, everything looks smart when your brain in convoluted by a savage ideology and chemical alterations.

    l believe some of the 9/11 savages were known to frequent certain bars I wouldn’t be surprised if they were drug users.
