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.”

Really? They thought a few classic American movies would help them?

I bet their ancestors lived right alongside my ancestors at the Massachusetts Bay colony. Mhm.

Don't be too surprised. You know the story about the pilgrims (on their hajj but they got lost) meeting up with Samoset bin Abedin, the native American muslim and being so surprised he spoke English. He explained that he had learned it from his hajj to the mosque at Jamestown, the 23,345th most holy place in Islam.

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.

Since common sense dictates that fraudulently obtained "citizenship" can never be actual citizenship, in my universe I reject all attempts of the MSM to smear the victim country; in this case, the USA.

Curiously, the propagandist, incompetent MSM fail to mention the actual name they used in the US.

I seriously doubt it was al-Amriki...

No information about where they lived in US.

Or no photographs; Or what their names were before revealing themselves as enemies, both foreign and domestic.

Amish?

When journalists pen “American” these days, it literally can mean anybody living here for a few days or so.

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.

Yeah, The Foreign Desk left a few details out...
