On the flip side, US forces can’t do anything until they are fired upon.
When they catch an ISIS thug, they ought to force feed him a pound of bacon before he is killed.

The AS50 is to provide combat operators with highly accurate and rapid aimed fire at extended ranges. To achieve such goal,the AS50 is built around gas operated, semiautomatic action, with "singlerear locking" (most probably, this mean a tilting bolt). The two-part receiver is machined from high grade steel, the barrel is free-floated andfitted with effective muzzle brake. Easily detachable buttstock is fitted with recoil-reducing buttpad, as well as with folding rear grip, which also serves asa rear support leg. The folding quick-detachable bipod with adjustable legs is fitted as a standard. Top of the receiver is equipped with full length Picatinnytype rail which can accept any compatible scope mount; two additional rails are mounted on either side of the short handguard / barrel jacket. Rifle is fitted with four sling mounts, and can be brought down to basic sub-assemblies within three minutes for maintenance or compact transportation or storage. Rifle is fed using single stack detachable box magazines, which holt five rounds of ammunition.

A head shot with a .50 caliber?

Our media would/will give the name and address of the SAS soldier and all his kin too.
Good, but they are not maniacs. They are acting on the beliefs of their subhuman violent ideology.

Yes, I agree that was a problem I found with the author / editor of the piece explaining that somehow these throat-cutters are just an aberration of a “peaceful religion”.
