After ISIS execution, angry King Abdullah quotes Clint Eastwood to U.S. lawmakers
 Members of the House Armed Services Committee met with Jordan's King Abdullah Tuesday not long after news broke that ISIS had burned to death a Jordanian pilot captured in the fight against the terrorist group. In a private session with lawmakers, the king showed an extraordinary measure of anger â anger which he expressed by citing American movie icon Clint Eastwood."He said there is going to be retribution like ISIS hasn't seen," said Republican Rep.

"He mentioned 'Unforgiven' and he mentioned Clint Eastwood, and he actually quoted a part of the movie." Hunter would not say which part of "Unforgiven" the king quoted, but noted it was where Eastwood's character describes how he is going to deliver his retribution.
