Islamic State says U.S. hostage killed in Syria

Oh, I can believe she's dead.

I do have a problem with the contention that she was killed as a result of the attack by Jordan, however.

Why? If Jordan struck at a Islamic State stronghold that she was being held at, why couldn't she have been killed. Btw, I don't offer that as any support for the Islamic States report, for they have every motive to lie that Washington ever has to lie, but it's certainly a possibility, no?
 
We should execute two Gitmo prisoners.

Yeah yeah, let's burn em alive too. Fist bump and high five to you for thinking that one up apdst!!!!!!!
 
Even if true, doesn't change a thing. Condolences to the family of the girl.

Burning them alive would definitely send a message.
 
Islamic State says U.S. hostage killed in Syria | Reuters

The Islamic State militant group said on Friday that an American woman hostage it was holding in Syria had been killed when Jordanian fighter jets bombed a building where she was being held, the SITE monitoring group said.

In Washington, U.S. officials said they could not confirm that the woman, who has been identified as 26-year-old aid worker Kayla Mueller of Prescott, Arizona, had been killed.

Mueller was the last-known American hostage held by Islamic State, which controls wide areas of Syria and Iraq and has executed five British and American aid workers and journalists in recent months.

Anyone see this coming?

She has been a captive of that islamic scum for over a year and half, probably getting gang-raped three times a day. Merciful.
 
Actually, they claim Jordan's bombing killed her.
If she wasn't killed by the Jordanians in a bombing raid I seriously doubt ISIL would have let her go.

Overwhelming violence is the language that these people speak. It's culturally insensitive not to speak to someone in their own language.
 
This post by you means you accept the word of ISIL on this matter.
The same ISIL liars who were negotiating over the release of a Jordanian pilot they had burned to death a month earlier.
I'll take the Jordanian account over these murdering cowardly terrorists .

This probably saved her from a far more grizzly death.
 
I disagree. I think a two for one ratio would be more fitting.

Brother at the rate Obama is giving them back, we may be down to our last two fairly quickly.
 
Fixed that for you. :)

I've been way ahead of you for days on this.
Though a 'smile emoticon' is not something I would expect from a Historian and Veteran to use .

Considering the millions of people the United States has killed in her century of wars, and often in far more heinous ways, its ironic that you should find humor in such things. Then again, considering the conversations I've had with you, maybe it's not.

The republicans that made sure there was language in the NDAA that forbid the president the use of federal money to close Gitmo, prefer that that scourge, and great Islamic extremist recruiting tool remain open.

Heya Monte :2wave: .....the good news is you can only go back about 270 years where you can blame the US for all its killings. All its carnage. Hows that make you feel that you can't blame the US for anything before then?????

Now Monte......for how many we have killed and heinously too. Lets get that in there we wouldn't want to forget that so you can get that shot in that the US and its people are such ****ing crazed killers, that we are no different than any other Humanoids. Okay.....are we good now, that all Americans are pieces of **** in your eyes.


So now.....for each and everyone we killed. How many have we helped and bettered their lives? How does that make you feel that the US has helped more people and countries than all the people we have killed and brutalized. Does that make you sad that our good works outweigh all of our bad works by 100 fold?

Only in your warped mind.
 
Innocent people die in war. There's probably never been one where innocent people didn't die. In "modern" times, with the gentility and formality of war stripped away innocent people make up the majority of the casualties of war.

Supposedly, we are engaged in a decades long war of civilizations with Muslim extremists. In that context, ALL of the beheadings by ISIS are a tiny part, and placing every one front and center for days on international media is only frazzling our political resolve. Let the military and the government we elected do their thing without constant bitching on our part, at least take a break now and then.

Everyone should feel for this young woman and her family but we lose perspective.

War is hell. Shame you can't see the hundreds of millions the US has freed from those who would have killed them or forced them to surrender to their victors. There are still a few survivors of concentration camps living, perhaps you could let them know how much you object to the US for the sacrifices made to save them.
 
How long is this slimy coward Obama going to let this evil go on. Chopped off heads, men burned alive, women killed and probably worse. . . . and what does Obama do? He cries about the 1,000 year old Crusades.

Let me tell you guys something: If you enable evil, if you refuse to call out evil, then you ARE evil. And Obama is evil.

The Germans who knew what Hitler was doing to the Jews and chose to turn their heads and pretend it want happening were just as guilty as Hitler himself. And Obama, who can't even use the words "Islamic Terrorists", who "leads from behind", who refuses to really fight them and eradicate them, is just as evil as they are.

I hop the b*stard rots in hell, in the same part of hell as ISIS.

I was worried this thread wasn't going to have any hysterical hyperbole.

One less thing to worry about.

Truth is not hyperbole.

So, you'd have the CIC send American troops to fight ISIS?
 
So, you'd have the CIC send American troops to fight ISIS?

Tactics is a military purview. Strategy should be: Destroy them thoroughly.

In WWII we destroyed the Third Reich and the Japanese Empire. We could wipe out these raghead vermin in a week. The only thing that stops us is the sissy-in-chief and his punk followers.

Question for you: Should we have attacked Hitler BEFORE the Holocaust and saved the lives of millions? Think hard, pinhead.

The same CIC that many republicans believe is totally incompetent. The same CIC that said sure lets pull our troops out of Iraq despite being warned numerous times that it is a bad idea,that if you pull out too early the terrorist will take over. But I suspect that is lost on him.

While that is true elected officials on both sides of the isle do not actually think that way anymore.

If you think this is a democrat only thing then you are sadly mistaken. If WWII happened during Bush's term in office we would still be fighting the Nazis and Japanese. They would have argued that you should not bomb the living out everything before sending in the troops.They would have argued the opposite.Resulting in more casualties.Heck if the Vietnamese war was any indication they would have wasted thousands of troops lives to take an area only to freely give it up hours or days later.And there is no way in hell Bush would have dropped two atomic bombs Japan.Because he would have argued that it would be better for millions of men on our side to die before thousands of Japanese civilians die.

Question for you: Should we have attacked Hitler BEFORE the Holocaust and saved the lives of millions?

We should have stayed the **** out of it. Just like we should have stayed the **** out of WWI.

Think hard, pinhead.
I do not know about but I value the lives of our own countrymen over the lives of foreigners. Maybe you do not think that way and have your lips wrapped around the cocks of the military industrial complex.
