MOAZ AL KASASBEH

Today the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria killed a captured Jordanian pilot in a brutal and horrific fashion. Aside from their own personal culpability in this despicable act, blame must also be cast at others.


Pakistanis, Saudi princes, Kuwaiti and Qatari sheikhs, and Palestine-sympathisant radicals in Berkeley, Europe, and the Middle East also bear a large degree of responsibility, as well as several American citizens, most especially including a certain United States Senator, whose vocal, partisan, and severely misguided encouragement and support for the rebels fighting Syria's Bashar Al Assad helped create a climate in which the usual funders and enablers of terrorism among the Arabs and Pakistanis saw both approval and opportunity.

[Note that the ISIS terrorists are largely foreign to both Syria and Iraq, coming from Europe, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Libya, Turkey, Central Asia, Chechnya, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and elsewhere. Mostly they represent the psychopathic layer, who in their home countries would express themselves by misogyny, violent crime, and thuggery. This does not absolve their families and supporters; it merely explains who and what they are.]

Turkey, of course, deserves especial opprobrium.
ISIS is the illegitimate bastard of the AK.



I would also suggest that Jordan would do well to brutally root out all extremists, both among their own population as well as the refugees (whether long resident or recent arrival).

There are a number of people in Jordan who, in a just universe, should see the business end of a gun as their last sight on earth.
King Abdullah deserves our moral support.
Pray for a 'Black February'.

Executing Sajida al-Rishawi and Ziyad Karboli is a good start.
But it is only a first step.
