American ISIS hostage Kayla Mueller has been confirmed dead, the 26-year-old's family confirmed in a statement.

""We are heartbroken to share that we've received confirmation that Kayla Jean Mueller, has lost her life," Mueller's parents said in a statement. "Kayla was a compassionate and devoted humanitarian. She dedicated the whole of her young life to helping those in need of freedom, justice, and peace."

The statement did not elaborate on how it had learned of Mueller's death or the circumstances of her death.

You totally misread the post. By a “Jordan like response”, the poster meant a response like the one Jordan gave when their pilot was burned to death. Their King, a trained fighter pilot, was ready to suit up and go on some missions himself. Don’t expect that attitude from Obama anytime soon.

So does that mean we're going to hang 2 inmates of Guantanamo?

(Didn't think so.)

Obama's statement of condolence:

"No matter how long it takes, the United States will find and bring to justice the terrorists who are responsible for Kayla's captivity and death," he said in a statement calling ISIS a "hateful and abhorrent terrorist group."

Yeah, right. Justice like the 9/11 terrorist plotters who are enjoying the good life at Club Gitmo while being defended by civilian lawyers who are also enjoying the good life.

Also, he left out two words: "... abhorrent radical Islamic terrorist group."

You’re right. Mea Culpa...I can read but in my defense the post was a little awkward...I’d have read it completely differently had I’d seen “Jordan-like” Sorry.

This was just an idealistic kid hoping to help some people who were suffering. And you’re sitting back in your comfortable chair, letting us know how much safer life is if you never leave your house.

Thanks for your input.

this

idealistic young people need to recognize that this is a terrible route to martyrdom

there are many many humanitarian needs in the world that she could have spent many years serving

I am wondering what “information” ISIS sent to her family.

I hope it wasn’t pictures.

Once again, the Obama regime is in the spotlight for sitting on information - taking too long, leading from behind.

ALL of our hostages are DEAD and theirs are playing soccer, have their prayer rugs, their SPECIAL diets, FULL medical care, THIS COUNTRY HAS GONE NUTS!!!!!!! for every one of our dead hostages a GITMO prisoner should be hanged 3.....2.....1 !!!!!!!!!!!!

[Gaffer]

You’re right. Mea Culpa...See #24.

[stuck_in_new_orleans]

Awwww, I’m such a jerk for not traveling to a woman hating middle eastern country during a civil war.

[Logical me]

King Obama is jumping with joy. Another American killed by his friends.

[Gaffer]

Yes. Mea culpa etc. My bad....however, you did type “Jordan-like” (what I would have typed and not what was posted. I guess I’m just too picky)....no matter. I effed up and am sorry to all.

No good deed goes unpunished.

What should she have expected, she goes in to an area where wild dogs are killing people every day, did she think somehow she would not be harmed.

[Toespi]

I think she was probably brutally murdered, as the other hostages have been, at an earlier date and the act is on video. They underestimated the outrage and blowback from the pilots death and they are holding back from displaying a video of a woman being slaughtered in an equally horrific manner.

That is for another time...please....a family is greiving. She died at the hands pf our enemies...show some heartheart

[Dog]

On other thing when she went into syria ISIS didnt exsist.

I agree.

They're blaming the Jordanians for her death, but the Jordanians actually saved her parents the anguish of having to see her death on video.

Will Obama give a shout out before he expresses sadness over her death?

[a fool in paradise]

President Obama confirmed today that American ISIS hostage Kayla Mueller has been killed, days after the terror group claimed she had died in a Jordanian airstrike.

“It is with profound sadness that we have learned of the death of Kayla Jean Mueller,” Obama said in a statement released by the White House. “On behalf of the American people, Michelle and I convey our deepest condolences to Kayla’s family – her parents, Marsha and Carl, and her brother Eric and his family – and all of those who loved Kayla dearly. At this time of unimaginable suffering, the country shares in their grief.”

I’m not going to whitehouse.gov to see if there is more to the statement

[SoFloFreeper]

Prayers up for the family.

Don’t know this girl or her reasons for being there, but I hope her loved ones are comforted.
