To put it simply King Abdullah is pissed. The Jordanians tried negotiating, tried everything to get their pilot back and when the video by the masked cowards called Daesh was released, then Jordan went to the next level.
When the Dae’sh scum brutally murdered their pilot and broadcast said murder on social media, Jordan began executing convicted terrorists. In The Guardian
Jordan has hanged a jailed Iraqi militant whose release had been demanded by the Islamic State group before it burned a captured Jordanian pilot to death.
Responding to the killing of the pilot, whose death was announced on Tuesday, the Jordanian authorities also executed another senior al-Qaida prisoner sentenced to death for plots to wage attacks against the pro-western kingdom in the last decade.
Sajida al-Rishawi, the Iraqi female militant, was sentenced to death for her role in a 2005 suicide bomb attack that killed 60 people.
Ziyad Karboli, an Iraqi al-Qaida operative who had been convicted in 2008 for killing a Jordanian, was also executed at dawn.
The executions were confirmed by government spokesman Mohammed al-Momani.
The prisoners were executed in Swaqa prison, a large facility 70km (45 miles) south of the capital, Amman, just before dawn, a security source who was familiar with the case told Reuters. The executions of three other convicted terrorists were also scheduled for Wednesday.
Jordan, which has been mounting air raids in Syria as part of the alliance against Islamic State insurgents, had said it would deliver a “strong, earth-shaking and decisive” response to the killing of pilot Muadh al-Kasasbeh.
It seems that Dae’sh has no problem torturing then brutally murdering their coreligionists and His Majesty King Abdullah addressed this rather angrily. Called them a criminal gang with no connection to his religion. About damn time. I cannot find one iota of sympathy for this gang of cowardly criminals who tortured this young man and then murdered him or for those who enable and support this rabble. And to give credit where credit is due, it is nice to see someone in the Islamic world speak against this bunch of cowardly criminals. Hopefully others will be bold enough to speak against these masked hoodlums. Including Mr. Obama. Rest in Peace Lt al-Kasasbeh.
Aww-no free meals at taxpayer expense and a relative life of luxury.
Those guys should have been caught by the US, which provides all sorts of goodies to such scum. Instead, they had the misfortune of being caught by Jordan, who sent them right to hell (after enduring some “discomfort” in prison no doubt). THIS is the way you handle terrorist scum-not the way the US does by coddling those bastards for years on end.
It’s about time some muslims denounced those bastards!
