The British member of Islamic State, Sally Jones, is believed to have been killed, along with her 12-year-old son Jojo, in a US airstrike.

Although there is confidence she is dead, it is impossible to be categorical given the inability to collect evidence on the ground. Other members of ISIS have been reported dead only to reappear.

Jones, dubbed “the white widow” by some in the press, was a regular propagandist on social media. She had more than 20 handles on Twitter, but there has been no activity from her in recent months.

The Sun reported that the CIA had told its UK counterparts Jones was killed by a Predator drone strike near the Syria-Iraq border in June.

Same here. Poor kid never had a chance. He woulda grown up to be a jihadi most likely. But then, maybe not.

Oh wait, pissant. It was Shirley Jones who invented the lesbian haircut and starred in the Partridge family.

Sally Jones starred in "Honey I Blew up the Kids."

I’d guess you’re thinking of the German girl who was captured in Iraq and got some press attention for saying she only wants to go home (she may go on trial in Iraq, they haven’t said yet).

This Sally Jones was a virulent propagandist for ISIS. I don’t think she said anything about wanting to go home (where is “home” for such scum? She certainly does not belong in the UK).

omg Sparklite. Shirley Jones stole the doo. She is guilty of muncheral appropriation.

You are the best researcher on Free Republic. Kudos, sir.

(was the muncheral joke too much of a stretch?)
