American couple recruiting for ISIS in Syria killed in airstrike
The Foreign Desk ^ | 05/02/2016 | Lisa Daftari

An American husband and wife team who traveled to Syria to join ISIS and recruit Westerns have been killed in an airstrike, according to jihadi social media accounts.

The bodies of Abu Isa al-Amriki and Umm Isa al-Amriki, as they were referred to, were discovered in the rubble of their home in Aleppo province Friday.

The couple actively recruited and communicated with potential recruits, answering questions and guiding others traveling from the West to join ISIS.

The Foreign Desk previously reported on the wife’s activities, focusing on mentoring only young women, writing on her social media account, “My account is for sisters only, so unless you menstruate do not message me.”

>>> “My account is for sisters only, so unless you menstruate do not message me.”

Lovely gal, sounded like a very likable character.///

By any chance, are these from some ‘missing’ moooooslems in Minnesota?

I just love how media likes to describe foreign persons who have obtained citizenship from and an America-hating President and State Department as “Americans”. Nothing of the sort.

Do we know they weren't native born Americans?

No, I don’t but I also wasn’t surprised to not see any pictures or history essays about what great borne Americans they were. Even if ‘American born’ that doesn’t mean they were ‘foreign influenced’ from birth by foreigners - parents, schooling, contemporaries, etc.

Show me the money up front is my credo.

Now, there are a couple of good solid American names.

I doubt those were their "American" names.

Abu Isa al-Amriki and Umm Isa al-Amriki . . . just names of a typical American couple, eh?

They could very well be converts. The names are arabicized nom-de-plums it looks like. Essentially the names read “child of person, the American” and the woman’s writing style comes off as too aggressive to be Arab raised. Most likely black converts.

Sorry, “parent” and not “child”.

There is a reason why we aren’t privy to actual fact. It is because the fact doesn’t support “traditional American.”

Like it or not, that’s my guess. A PDOOMA - pulled directly out of my ass. I know media, I know quislings, I know media. When they obfuscate like this, there is a reason.

The names “Abu Isa al-Amriki and Umm Isa al-Amriki” are anything but American.

I agree- then they can print headlines like, “
3 Americans convicted of Terrorism!”

Good, but they were not Americans. Their love and allegiance were for a savage state which is at war with us.

American? No.
Instead, how about a citizen of the global caliphate aka a muslim?

It’s called “karma” and it’s pronounced “ha-ha-ha-ha”.

Sounds like they were Muslims.

Not Americans.
