(CNN) -- The video clip lasts a mere 35 seconds. It's night. Six men, illuminated by a flashlight, are sitting with their hands tied behind their backs and with various types of blindfolds.
More men huddle behind them in
the dark. In front of them is a pit, apparently freshly dug, and on the other
side of the pit sits another man similarly bound and blindfolded.
Two seconds into the clip,
someone says, "Jahiz?" "Ready?"
At three seconds a man extends
his right arm into the light, holding a pistol.
The checkpoint at the entrance to the Syrian town of Addana
is where members of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, or ISIS, used to dump
the bodies of those they had executed to remind others of the consequences of
violating their harsh rules. Now that ISIS has left the town, a flag
representing the Islamic Front flies over the checkpoint.
ISIS moved into the conservative town about a year ago and
was initially welcomed by rebels fighting the Syrian government. Once
entrenched, ISIS began enforcing strict rules.

People shop and sell goods in the town center midday in
Addana. Under ISIS rule, shops were forced to close for the noon prayers, and
activities such as smoking were banned. Those who violated the rules were
executed or just disappeared.

Black paint, used by ISIS to mark its territory, can still
be seen on the entrance to the jail area. ISIS painted many of the buildings in
the town black to announce its presence, and the locals have recently repainted
many of the buildings white.

A shoe, a severed foot and several socks are uncovered at
the grave site. This is significant to the residents because a missing man was
last seen in the market buying socks for his family.

Photos: ISIS reign
of fear in Syria
At six seconds the first shot is
fired into the back of the first man's head. The man with the pistol moves
decisively, without hesitation, shooting one after the other in the back of the
head. It would appear he has done this before many times.
Hague: Syrian regime must work
with us 
Why are Westerners fighting in
Syria?
Eleven seconds into the video
clip, you can hear what sounds like open faucets. It's the sound of blood
gushing from the head wounds. And the gushing sound gets louder and louder.
Twenty-six seconds after the
first shot is fired, a total of 14 men -- some of whom appear to be teenagers --
are dead or dying, some slumping into the pit.
This video clip was one of a
variety recently obtained by CNN from Syrian activists. They document atrocities
committed not by the regime of President Bashar al-Assad, but rather by members
of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, known as ISIS, which emerged last year
as a major power in opposition-controlled parts of northern Syria.
In the areas controlled by ISIS,
public floggings and executions have become commonplace. Most recently ISIS has
battled other opposition groups in fighting that has left well over 2,000 people
dead.
Even Al Qaeda's leader, Ayman
Al-Zawahiri, has demanded ISIS leave Syria.
The material CNN obtained
provides a snapshot of the inner workings of ISIS, a group using methods and
tactics not unlike those of the regime that Syrians rose up against almost three
years ago.
The material provided by the
activists was found in a house in Aleppo occupied by one "Abu Ahmed Al-Iraqi,"
or "the Iraqi." As is so often the case with members of these radical groups,
this is not his real name. He abandoned the video clips, as well as the camera
they were shot with, when ISIS retreated from the area during fighting against
other opposition groups.

Activists describe Abu Ahmed as
an "amir," a commander, responsible for carrying out justice, ISIS style. He is,
in effect, judge, jury and executioner. He appears to be the man who carried out
the executions described above.
The other clips include eight
interrogations of men, most of whom are members of opposition factions not
affiliated with ISIS, all operating in or around the town of Al-Bab, northeast
of Aleppo. It's not clear whether Abu Ahmed Al-Iraqi is doing the
interrogations, but the strong Iraqi accent of the interrogators leaves no doubt
about where they come from.
No torture occurs on camera, but
it's clear the subjects are under duress. They are all blindfolded, and several
sweat profusely. The line of questioning is persistent, always focusing on the
activities and opinions of opposition members. Not once in the course of the
lengthy interrogations is a single question posed about the Assad regime. In
fact, it's not even mentioned.
There are veiled threats; one of
the men, who identifies himself as a doctor named Basil, is asked if he ever
wants to see his two children again. Another young man, Mohamed, is told to
speak the truth to "save himself." He responds by saying, "I will speak the
truth, even if I lose my head."
ISIS is clearly worried that
many Syrians view them as unwanted interlopers. Thousands of young men have
flocked from around the world, including Europe and North America, to join the
fight against the Assad regime, and many of the more radical among them have
joined ISIS and other jihadi groups.
You can hear what sounds like open faucets. It's the sound of blood gushing
from the head wounds.
At one point the interrogator
demands of the aforementioned Mohamed: "Didn't people say ISIS are strangers?
That they wear "chabounat?" Chabounat is a derisive term referring to the short
jalabiyas, or robes, worn by hard-line Islamists to copy the attire of the
Prophet Mohammed. Chabounat in this case might be the equivalent of petticoats.
Mohamed wisely claims complete ignorance.
From the video clips, it appears
that Abu Ahmed has made a life for himself in Syria.
In a series of clips he is
instructing a young woman in a black coat how to use an AK-47 assault rifle and
a pistol. Her face is exposed -- she is not wearing the "niqab," which
completely covers the face and has become de rigueur dress for women in areas
controlled by ISIS. She speaks with a Syrian accent.
He's also getting around in a
late-model black BMW SUV. And in another video clip, he is doing target practice
in the garden of a high-walled villa.
A fancy car, nice house,
interrogations and mass executions: meet the new boss in this part of Syria.
Same as the old boss.
