Sniper takes out ISIS executioner from a mile away
New York Post ^ | 9/11/2016 | Emily Saul

A sharpshooter killed a top ISIS executioner and three other jihadists with a single bullet from nearly a mile away — just seconds before the fiend was set to burn 12 hostages alive with a flamethrower, according to a new report.

The British Special Air Service marksman turned one of the most hated terrorists in Syria into a fireball by using a Barett .50-caliber rifle to strike a fuel tank affixed to the jihadi’s back, the UK’s Daily Star reported Sunday.

The pack exploded, killing the sadistic terrorist and three of his flunkies, who were supposed to film the execution, last month, the paper said.

The ISIS butcher — who reportedly delighted in burning hostages alive — had been on a US “kill list” for several months, sources told the paper, which did not identify the sniper or the executioner.

Sporting of the terrorist to provide a larger and poetic target for the sniper. Looks like Allah wills it.

If it starts with a liquid accelerant can we still call it a screaming Class A?

Is ‘t good news great.Imagine that three killers were taken out for the price of one bullet.

Talk about being economical.

Too bad they don’t have a videotape of that shot. But we dare not refer to them as Islamic Terrorists.

Actually, the NYP story links to the wrong story (cited as source) at the UK Star. That story is eight months old and makes no mention of any “flame thrower.” But the Brits did spell Barrett correctly.
