I would be happier if he had died a slow agonizing death as in internal organs slid out onto the ground.

How would ISIS know it was an ‘unmanned drone strike’?

All they know is that it went boom-boom.

I would have preferred he had been captured, drugged, then placed on the guillotine. As he woke up he'd notice he was tied down on the guillotine with the blade over his head....with the hand of a wife or family member of one of his victims holding the rope. And then they'd take their time pulling the rope before the blade crashed down.
