Murdered journalist Steven Sotloff was kidnapped and sold to the radical Islamic State terrorist group, or ISIS, by one of the “moderate” rebel groups to whom the US government has considered offering support, according to his family’s spokesman.
Barak Barfi told CNN that Sotloff—who was Jewish and a joint US-Israeli citizen—was sold for a sum of money in the tens of thousands of dollars at the Syrian border. He said credible “sources on the ground” had provided the dramatic and tragic details of the abduction.
“For the first time, we can say Steven was sold at the border,” Barfi said.
He described for the first time how Sotloff was set up to be kidnapped, as “activists” spread false rumors that he had participated in the bombing of a hospital—rumors which set him up to be kidnapped by a rebel group, and ultimately executed by IS. …

ISIS is islam. Islam is ISIS.
The only difference between these groups is their source of funding and to what extent they think they can get away with rape and murder.
Now that one of their (News Media) own has been slaughtered due to a president that sides with moslems - I wonder if their news coverage of this moron will change from covering his arse to exposing who he really is???
Not surprising. Recall that the part about “to the shores of Tripoli” in the Marine Corps Hymn is about the rescue of Americans who had been captured and made into slaves by the Bey.
LONG history of this sort of thing over there. And it needs to be called what it is: slavery.
Should say, the the attempt to rescue ...
Kind of like a moderate Democrat huh?
don’t call it ISIS, the left would hate that, no they want it called ISIL , because as usual the left likes to play the name game
Muslims selling humans again. Muslims have been in the slave trade for centuries. That how African blacks migrated west - through the muslim slave trade.
Barbary pirates
Moderate?! Can we just stop with the bullchit? Islam, Muslims—if they follow that crap book—they are EVIL!!!
CAIR=EVIL you sorry sacks of dung! Islam sucks pig butt! And Hard!!!
That sounds as contrived as the notion he was a faithful Jew. There is no evidence to support the assertion Sotloff was traded/abducted.
Its more likely he went with ISIS voluntarily on account of his own pro Muslim views. He just found out being a fanatic champion of every Islamic terrorist group on the planet still mattered less than he was still an infidel American.
The T.E Lawrence of Jihadi Islam, he wasn’t. Talk about a deadly career path.
Has the MSM contacted Salman Rushdie for his comment and perspective, living under a fatwa??
So it’s OK to not avenge his death? Kinda like Chris Stevens, eh?
“He further accused the administration of releasing false information,”
“”We know that the intelligence community and the White House are enmeshed in a larger game of bureaucratic infighting and Jim and Steve are pawns in this game and that’s not fair and if there continues to be leaks the Sotloff family will have to speak out to set the record straight,” he said.”
“Religion of peace” moderates (/sarcasm) sell Jew to “hijackers” (/sarcasm) of “religion of peace” (/sarcasm) for infidels to be named later. /sarcasm
You’re dreaming
There is no individual greater than the collective. Means to an end maintains its current course.
There are no moderate Muslims, only those better at hiding their true tendencies. It is a cult of fear and barbarism, everyone in it is suspect. You’re right, not so different from democrats, differing only slightly in methods.
Yeah - I know...until they are all put under the knife - they still won’t get it...the entire reason why I pay little attention to the news anymore...complete idiots when it comes to understanding and reporting world events - and how they are connected...
Fund one Muslin group (like we do), you fund them all.
