Female fighter talk about ISIS up on Sinjar

"Roza" [her nom de guerre], a female fighter from the PKK [Kurdistan Workers' Party] talks about ISIS / Speaking from a front-line position in Sinjar in Northern Iraq, the 22 year old, explains how she and her fellow fighters fought against ISIS on August 3rd 2014, and how the jihadists use "psychological" warfare to scare their enemies. ROZA VIDEO TRANSLATION: People were exaggerating Isis before they met them. They were beheading people and even the big countries were not able to fight and beat them. It was what we were told. When we came here we saw with or own eyes that that's not true. We were even told that they would not die even after 10 bullets. They exaggerated Isis too much in their perceptions and they (Isis) are just playing with people's psychology. When we came here and started fighting them we saw that they are not like that. They were normal people - even fearful people. For instance they wouldn't attack if they were less than 10-15 people. One of our friends would fight 15 of them at a time. But they won't. They won't attack if they don't have their tanks and snipers with them. I mean they are not that strong. People exaggerate them in their minds.
