Yes its very sad. I have to say though, these terrorists aren't just random unskilled men with weapons. They look highly trained and seem to have many powerful weapons at their disposal. I find it very hard to believe than an army of 1 million soldiers can collapse so easily against some terrorist group with just twenty thousand soldiers. Clearly they are very strong and are being backed by some very powerful people.

And unfortunately these mass killings will continue. Only 2% of Iraq is Christian, but what's more worrying is that 65% of their country is Shia, and these terrorists think people of any other faith other than Sunni Islam need to be killed. Very bad times for the people of Iraq.

I read somewhere that ISIS is reportedly one of the richest terrorist groups out there, that would explain their increase in power in such a short amount of time.

They've taken over all the banks in many towns, and are taking many oil refineries. They are rumored to be then selling that oil in the black market. And of course, they got their weapons originally from America, and are rumored to be getting money from Saudi Arabia. 

Here's an interesting thing about ISIS funding I found:

Interesting how most of those countries think Saudia Arabia and the Gulf arab states are funding them. KSA and the Muslim Brotherhood, which are both Wahabi, claim Iran and Syria is funding ISIS. That wouldn't even make any sense since ISIS is fighting against Bashal Al Assad's government, so why would the Syrian regime fund them?!
