| IS claims US female hostage killed in coalition strike in Syria |
| 2015-02-07 |
| [DAWN] The Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... group claimed on Friday that a female American hostage had been killed in an air strike in Syria by the US-led coalition. In a statement posted on jihadist websites, IS said the woman was buried beneath the rubble after a raid by a Jordanian warplane in Raqa, the self-proclaimed capital of the hard boy group. "The plane from the crusader coalition bombed a position outside the city of Raqa after Friday prayers," it said. "No fighter was maimed but we can confirm that an American hostage was killed in the strikes." The statement did not show any pictures of a body and there was no independent confirmation of her reported death. US officials declined to comment. "I cannot confirm those reports in any way. I'm not going into specifics of Americans held overseas," State Department deputy spokeswoman Marie Harf said. IS jihadists have seized swathes of territory in Iraq and Syria, ruling with a brutal version of Islamic law. The group has murdered both locals and foreigners, including two US journalists, an American aid worker, two British aid workers, two Japanese hostages and a Jordanian pilot. |

| #9 I call bullshit. No fighter maimed, so she was just sitting alone in a building, nobody around for 50 yards? There doesn't seem to be proof a death, which would be further effective as a wedge, perhaps with a kitten kennel next to her body. I think they are trying to pull a card out of their sleeve. Besides, they aren't playing freeze tag - captives are as good as dead with the ISJV. Drop a bomb on my ass, kill my guards, don't let them use my corpse for their pleasures. |

| #6 imho, "ISIS" members cannot restrain themselves from almost immediate satisfaction of their bloodlust. Therefore, any hostages must be, albeit painfully, written off and responses made accordingly. |

| #5 Reports from IS are not to be believed, this applies to IS even more than it does to the MSM. IS is very good at deception. The quality of IS propaganda is truly superb. IS hostages are as good as dead, just judging from what has happened so far. Funny how that hasn't sunk in yet. |

| #1 Kayla was sudden murdered by terrorists when the Obama Regime went very public with their sordid publicity stunt announcement that they were now going all out to rescue her. |
