Burning is the new beheading.
 

Apparently.

"Islamic State militants claim to have killed a Jordanian pilot they were keeping hostage by burning him alive

First Lieutenant Muadh al-Kasasbeh, who flew an F-16 fighter jet in operations against Isis fighters and whose plane came down near Raqqa, northern Syria just before Christmas, appears to have been murdered.

Images from a video show him being set alight while locked in a cage."


Cardy.

What a horrible, cruel way to kill someone. :(

Re: Burning is the new beheading.
 

Utterly barbaric. :mad: What next: Death by a thousand cuts? And they claim to be followers of Islam.

Well take the bitch they wanted in exchange and shoot her.

Apparently there has been a flurry of check ins at the Sawaqa desert prison in the last few hours.

Re: Burning is the new beheading.
 

Surely such levels of barbarism is going to back fire? It must alienate all but the most psychotic of people.

Jordan has vowed revenge.

Psychotics....

Re: Burning is the new beheading.
 

I say follow the teachings of the good book ;).

It says an eye for an eye a tooth for a tooth, so in this case as the religious nutters burnt that pilot then Jordan should burn her.

Sick.

Re: Burning is the new beheading.
 

They are hanging her tomorrow from reports

Re: Burning is the new beheading.
 

Indeed, but the world seems to be heading that way. I don't honestly think she should be burnt. But she should have the sentence handed down to her carried out in accordance with Jordanian law.

Sadly there's nothing IS can do to its victims that hasn't been done before and isn't going on elsewhere in the world in some form or other. It makes news here/how because it's IS but people are burned alive in Africa and mutilated/dismembered in Mexico yet we hardly hear about it. Any shock value IS seeks to obtain by whatever grotesque means it employs to kill people will be short lived, what mustn't be short lived or less that total is our determination to root out and punish those responsible for these acts and the people who support them.

Re: Burning is the new beheading.
 

I think this is only going to isolate ISIS further. There were reports they had sympathisers in Jordan but that's going to be gone now. Also as a PR stunt how many disaffected Muslims are going to see this, committed against a fellow Muslim by the way, and get taken in?

These are sick, evil, people. There are almost cartoonish in their villainy and you have to stop and remind yourself that this is real life.

Re: Burning is the new beheading.
 

To be honest i think they are trying there damnedest to get foreign military boots on the ground and they will try anything to reach that goal. By foreign i mean Western boots on the ground.
