Following in the grand tradition of the likes of such progressive thinkers as Adolph Hitler, Margaret Sanger and Peter Singer, ISIS has *apparently* gone ahead and decided to improve the gene pool via eugenics.

Of course, we’ve heard this sort of thing before and it’s turned out to be overblown or outright false.
