Jordanian government threatens to kill all Islamic State captives if their pilot is executed
American Thinker ^ | 01/31/2015 | Rick Moran

The deadline has passed for a presumed hostage deal between Islamic State and Jordan that would have seen the release of an Iraqi woman terrorist by the Jordanians in exchange for a royal air force pilot and a Japanese civilian held by Islamic state. Jordan says that negotiations are continuing but are demanding proof of life before they release the terrorist.

In fact, Islamic State has refused to say if they would release the pilot even if the terrorist were set free.

Now the Jordanians are saying that if their pilot is executed, they will speed up the judicial process and execute all IS prisoners in their custody.

And, like the Russians do to their “traitors”, bury them face down.

Good, let me echo those who say we should do the same.

Have we executed one person for terrorism since 9/11? No, now we have not.

Explain to me why KSM is still alive.

I want President Scott Walker to do 2 things his first day in office.

1. Politely ask England if we can borrow back the Churchill bust.

2. Schedule KSM’s trial at Gitmo, and start building the scaffold and skinning the hog.

This is wholly legitimate. ISIS members are not in a recognized arm which observers Geneva rules. They thus do not get any protections given to combatants in a declared war.

They actually can be executer in the field of battle.

I’ve been screaming forever that this should be the West’s policy...when the idiots decapitate a westerner, 10-”detainees” in Gitmo should be paraded in front of a firing squad and shot, one at a time.

I suggest the same, except that the executions should be carried out by a drone. Executed in that manner, Predator operators can get some practice, the count can be added without offending Democrats, and there won’t be any chance of collateral damage.

It seems that they play hardball in Jordan. Obama is wetting his frilly panties right about now.
