DEVELOPING: The parents of Kayla Mueller, the Arizona woman who was taken hostage by ISIS in August 2013, confirmed Tuesday their daughter died while in the hands of the terror group.

"We are heartbroken to share that we've received confirmation that Kayla Jean Mueller has lost her life," Carl and Marsha Mueller, of Prescott, Ariz., said in a statement. "Kayla was a compassionate and devoted humanitarian. She dedicated the whole of her young life to helping those in need of freedom, justice, and peace."

The family received information from their daughter's ISIS captors over the weekend that was authenticated, according to U.S. officials.

"The family received a private message from Kayla’s ISIL captors containing additional information," National Security Council spokeswoman Bernadette Meehan said Tuesday. "Once this information was authenticated by the intelligence community, they concluded that Kayla was deceased."

It is not yet known how or when 26-year-old Mueller died. ISIS claimed last week she was killed by a Jordanian airstrike, but offered no immediate evidence.

President Obama issued a statement Tuesday, also acknowledging her death.

Just as so much of what you say is rubbish, your assumption is dead wrong.

The fact that one is Christian is pretty much the “luck of the draw.” There are billions of people in this born into non-Christian families & environments, & realistically having no real hope of becoming Christian. One’s “faith” is almost entirely based on “where” one was born. If you happened to have born in Saudi Arabia, what are the chances you’d be or become Christian?

Mueller was a pro-Palestinian activist with the Marxist leaning ISM (International Solidarity Movement) which they have confirmed. She was trying to be another Rachel Corrie, a Marxist who was accidentally killed during an Israel clearing operation.

Looks like there is more to her story than the mainstream media will tell.

Go to”Arutz Sheva 7” website and look for today’s column “Op-Ed: Who Was Kayla Mueller?” by investigative journalist Lee Kaplan. Kaplan is really the father of investigative journalism when it comes to the ISM.

You can Google many of his major writings on this subject.

There is also some good data on ISM at two database websites:
www.DiscoverTheNetwork.org and www.keywiki.org (search term is International Solidarity Movement and/or “Gaza Flotilla”).

Hope this gives you some places to see what the truth about Mueller really is.

However, I strongly condemn ISIS for killing her. She was a humanitarian worker despite her political beliefs, and she was an American citizen.

By the way, Obama held up a planned rescue mission(with pinpoint information on where she was being held), from May or July until it failed a couple months later. That news came out today. See if the MSM carries that. If not search the Washington Times and Free Republic for stories on it.

The Gospel is just about everywhere, even in SA. Places like China and Korea have the largest Christian churches on the planet. God delivers the new of freedom and salvation through Jesus via the feet of willing and sometimes not so willing messengers, by creation (which gives testament to His existence). “Luck of the Draw” funny! It is on purpose, and it is by His providence and grace that it happens. Hope is real, and it is found in Jesus Christ...even to those who are far off.

Rubbish? Well, one day even you will bend knee to His name which I pray comes sooner than later. Sadly “scoffers will scoff”, and again, it makes no difference if you “believe” in the wind...it is still there and it still exists to work the landscape.

Read this: Op-Ed: Who Was Kayla Mueller? A look at the writings of the ISIS victim shows her support and aid to Palestinian Arab terror groups, her acting as a human shield for them, and her active participation in anti-Israel protests. Rachel Corrie did the same.

I’ve read on several places that she was an avid protestors against the Israeli settlements. In short, she was one with the people who killed her, politically.

I had a double hernia operation done by a Syrian surgeon. He went to the university of Damascus, I haven’t been the same since. I was better off with the hernias.

Sorry for that. Fox News has one muslim doctor, definitely needed a token doctor for Fox. They aren’t much different than the other channels any more. If they’re too cheap to put a decent channel on Roku streaming media, then I’m too cheap to care.
