Washington Times ^

The official news agency of the self-styled Islamic State claimed Monday that its forces shot down an American warplane.

“The crew of the U.S. warplane that was shot down by Islamic State fighters near Ayn Asad Airbase is dead,” read a statement by the Amaq news agency. There was no immediate word from the Pentagon, nor did the Islamic State claim specify whether the air crew was killed in the crash or captured alive and executed.

If this was a MANPAD, imagine the irony on
the night of the Coronation for the traitor.

If it is a MANPAD, I’ll bet it came from Gaffi’s stores in Libya through Hillary’s State Dept.

Will Hillary! send her sympathies tonight from the

contentious “convention”, or will we have to wait until

Wikileaks releases her email?

From the article:

“However, the U.S. military quickly rebutted the claim as false.

“There is no truth to reports of ISIL downing a U.S. aircraft near Anbar. All U.S. & Coalition aircraft accounted for at this time,” the U.S. Central Command posted on Twitter.”

Get on with it - turn the microwave on high and give’m glass highways. The reason they’re acting up is because we have a president who has no man parts and is a traitor.

I wonder if the plane was shot down with one of the MPADs (Man Portable Air Defense) that Hillary gave to ISIS at Benghazi?

If not, then Saudi Arbia or Turkey gave it to them.

The most disturbing thing about this story is that U.S. Central Command posts on twitter.
