ISIS Leader Repeatedly Raped American Hostage, U.S. Finds [Would Not Have Happened Under Reagan!]

August 14, 2015 ISIS Leader Repeatedly Raped American Hostage, U.S. Finds

WASHINGTON -- American hostage Kayla Mueller was repeatedly forced to have sex with Abu Bakr Baghdadi, the leader of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), U.S. intelligence officials told her family in June.

"They told us that he married her, and we all understand what that means," Carl Mueller, Kayla's father, told The Associated Press on Friday, which would have been his daughter's 27th birthday. Her death was reported in February.

Her mother, Marsha Mueller, added, "Kayla did not marry this man. He took her to his room and he abused her and she came back crying."

The news is but the latest in a litany of horrors perpetrated by ISIS, which has beheaded, burned and crucified male captives while passing around women as sex slaves.

Mueller was held for a time by ISIS financier Abu Sayyaf and his wife, known as Umm Sayyaf. Al-Baghdadi took Mueller as a "wife," repeatedly raping her when he visited, according to a Yazidi teenager who was held with Mueller and escaped in October 2014.

The 14-year-old made her way to Iraqi Kurdistan, where she talked to U.S. commandos in November 2014. Intelligence agencies corroborated her account and American officials passed it on to her parents in June.

Jihadis, ISIS or not, muslim extremists, of all types, should be shot on sight. No negotiations, no surrenders, no quarter whatsoever.

This poor family. To have this info come out is heartbreaking.

These evil b@st@rds need to pay for what they've done. Infuriating we have such a *ussy as the commander in chief.

I'm convinced. Even if it were his own daughter being raped and tortured, he'd not act.

What a coward!

The default state of humanity outside Christendom. No one a century ago would have been surprised at this story.

It would happen under Reagan. It definitely happened under Bush where our female pilots were shot down and taken prisoner.

To the contrary, they should be taken prisoner, water-boarded until every possible piece of intel has been squeezed from them...and then shot.

Waterboarding is too easy. I suggest going over every inch with a potato peeler, drenching each pass with toluene and selectively drilling 3/16” holes in tender bones to extract info.

Start burying them in pig fat. Would they not be to “impure” to get their virgins?

Love Reagan and all, but when it came to this part of the world he did not distinguish himself very well. When Hezbollah blew up the Marine barracks in Beirut, Reagan dropped and fired a few bombs and shells into the hills, and then quickly left the neighborhood. During the symbolic air strikes we lost a plane and had a pilot captured. We had to endure the spectacle of Jesse Jackson winning the release of the pilot in Damascus, I bet you can guess what the pilot looked like. It was a mess, a mess that was duly noted by future adversaries who figured we did not have stomach for war, think Saddam and Bin Laden.

not a single member of the Obama regime will lose even a single second of sleep over this revelation.

my disgust for Obama (and people like him who cannot bring themselves to admit that there is such a thing as genuine islamic terrorism/evil) knows no bounds.

the world sees us as weak. under Obama and Boehner and McConnell we are.

Not only that, but Regan sent the marines in there with a fuzzy mission. Then they began to take sides during the conflict. That well may not have mattered, however, as we well know today. The terrorists need no real justification for committing mass murder.

Under Reagan, the Marine barracks bombing occurred, during which 200+ Marines were killed. Reagan retaliated by shelling Syrian military installations in Lebanon. The right move would have been to bomb Tehran and Damascus, but Reagan never got round to that. I have to wonder to what extent arms for hostages and Iran-Contra had to do with his mild reaction to the bombing. Bottom line is that US policy vis-a-vis the Middle East, prior to Operation Desert Storm and Operation Iraqi Freedom, had always been mild. Even Praying Mantis was, best, a skirmish. The only teeth Reagan showed was with respect to Gaddafi, over the Gulf of Sidra. Until Desert Storm, the uniform US policy towards the Mid East had been appeasement, and has always reverted to that.
