近日，英国《电讯报》报道了一则2014年的故事，伊拉克化学博士身陷IS占领区，影响科研项目，导师派雇佣兵将其救出。
一名瑞典隆德大学的化学教授派遣了一队精英雇用军进入IS占领区，救出了她的博士学士及其家人。
A chemistry professor at Lund University dispatched a team of elite mercenaries into an Islamic State warzone to free one of her doctoral students and his family.

据报道，故事是这样的！
2014年的一天，分析化学教授夏洛塔·特纳（Charlotta Turner）收到了一条短消息。学生Firas Jumaah请假，说他的博士论文可能完成不了了。
...I would not finish my thesis if I had not returned within a week.
（老师，如果我一周内没有回来，我的博士论文恐怕完成不了了！）
这位博士生交不了作业的理由非常充分。“我和我的家人现在正躲在一个废弃漂白厂，耳边是镇外IS开火的枪声。”
My family and I are hiding out in a disused bleach factory, hearing the sounds of gunshots as Islamic State (Isil) warriors roamed the town outside.
正常人都会认为事情到这儿就结束了，毕竟谁也不会指望一个分析化学系教授面对IS的枪林弹雨时能做些什么。
学生告诉隆德大学校刊记者“我发短信就是想告诉自己的导师一声，现在发生了什么。也没想着一个分析化学系导师能够为我们做什么。”
“I had no hope then at all,” Jumaah told Lund’s University Magazine LUM. “I was desperate. I just wanted to tell my supervisor what was happening. I had no idea that a professor would be able to do anything for us.”
但是，手机另一侧的教授显然是完全不同的状态。几声枪响就半途而废了？
《电讯报》报道称，特纳教授绝不允许自己的学生研究项目有始无终，功亏一篑。
But Turner was in no mind to let Jumaah’s research project go unfinished.
特纳教授在接受采访时说，“事发的情况，我完全无法接受！” 她说，“我特别生气。IS就这样闯入了我们的世界，危及到了我的博士生还进一步影响学术研究。”

特纳教授跟自己的上司们进行了沟通，看看能做点什么。
She contacted her superiors to find out if anything could be done.
特纳教授说，我的领导给我开了绿灯，告诉我“想做什么就去做”。
“It was a question of basic humanity. My boss gave me the green light and said ‘just do it’,” she said.
特纳教授首先联系了学校安全总监古斯塔夫森。
She contacted the university’s then security chief Per Gustafson.
特纳教授介绍到，古斯塔夫森也感觉到自己像是有种等待已久的使命去拯救学生。
“It was almost as if he’d been waiting for this kind of mission,” she said.
经过几天紧锣密鼓地安排部署，古斯塔夫森联系了一家安保公司，随后制定了一个营救作战计划。几天后，两辆SUV载着四名全副武装的雇佣兵，呼啸冲进Jumaah藏身的区域。
Over a few days of intense activity, Gustafson hired a security company which then arranged a rescue operation. Just a few days later two Toyota Land Cruisers bearing four heavily-armed mercenaries roared into the area where Jumaah was hiding.
两辆车护送Jumaah、他的妻子和两个孩子到伊拉克埃尔比勒机场。
They then drove him him away to Erbil airport together with his wife and two small children.
Jumaah说“我从未感到过如此荣幸，受到过这样的待遇。”“但与此同时，我觉得自己像个胆小鬼，因为我的母亲和姐妹当时还留在战区。”
“I have never felt so privileged, so VIP,” Jumaah said. “But at the same time I felt like a coward because I left my mother and sisters behind me.”

据《福克斯新闻》报道，当时Jumaah和他的家人处境尤为危险，因为他们是雅兹迪人。雅兹迪人受到IS的野蛮对待，IS经常折磨或杀害雅兹迪男子，并将雅兹迪妇女卖去当性奴隶。
Jumaah and his family were particularly in danger because they are part of the Yazidi ethnoreligious group that was subject to brutal treatment by ISIS, who often tortured or murdered the men and sold women into sex slavery.
雅兹迪是库尔德人的一个分支，他们因独特的宗教信仰而在历史上多次遭受迫害，他们被误解为“拜魔鬼”的人，不改变信仰就将面临被杀戮的命运，如今，他们已经成为伊拉克最脆弱的少数教派，没有任何人比他们在这场动乱中遭受更多苦难。
《电讯报》报道称，Jumaah接到妻子的电话得知IS已经入侵至家乡隔壁的村子，他因此赶回伊拉克老家。
Jumaah had flown in from Sweden after his wife had rung him to say that ISIL warriors had entered the neighbouring village.
当时我的妻子完全处于惊慌失措的状态，每个人都对IS的所作所为感到震惊。 “我乘第一班航班去找寻家人。我不在，如果他们在那里发生了不测，我还怎么过活？”
“My wife was in a total panic, everyone was shocked at how Islamic State was behaving. I took the first plane there to be with them. What sort of life would I have had if anything had happened to them when I wasn’t there?” he said.
还好，Jumaah在家乡的亲人全都幸运地活了下来。
Luckily the rest of the family all survived Isil occupation.
他本人也已经顺利完成了自己的博士论文，现在在瑞士马尔默一家医药公司工作。这家人也几乎已经偿还完了由隆德大学支付的救援费用
He successfully completed his Ph.D. and works at a pharmaceutical company in Malmö. The family also almost paid off the university for the mercenaries they hired.

考cpa的赵金花女士：不写论文找什么借口，去把他给我拉回来写作业
糖C妹妹：想起自己写论文被老师催催催的时候啦。这个学生心情应该很复杂吧，把他救出来是免费的吗？不会写完论文还要工作挣钱还搜救费吧[哈哈]
