Can the evil b-----s be stopped from their depravity.

The Jordanian Pilot has been reportedly 'burnt alive' by ISIS. It is said there is video footage.

Are they thinking up ways to get more countries to retaliate to justify and recruit in their mad dog minds? We know they are murderous barbarians so maybe they are just enjoying their barbarity, who knows.

They are sick.

I agree Pogs

Oh, how bloody barbaric. angry

FlicketyB Tue 03-Feb-15 17:24:34

Is there no level too vile for these barbarians to plumb?

nigglynellie Tue 03-Feb-15 17:26:26

Dear God, this news is truly dreadful. Is there no end to these monster's depravity, what with murdering people for watching football, keeping pigeons, being homosexual and heaven only knows what else, I can't cope, Words fail me.

MiniMouse Tue 03-Feb-15 17:38:58

Oh that's beyond words. sad angry

I really can't bear to think about it. Do you think if we put a news blackout on all of these atrocities it would stop? Do they do it for the publicity.

These days with social media there's no stopping the publicity unfortunately.

I really do hope that one day 'Jihadi John' or whatever he's called, who is likely British, is brought to justice, and shown for the coward that he is.

I've just heard this on the BBC news, I feel sick at the barbarity of these vile monsters, everything they do is so awful, but this made me weep. It feels as if part of the world is living in some hideous parallel universe medieval cruelty with today's technology. They throw homosexuals off the top of buildings and stone people for adultery, behead their enemies and now this. What awful people they are inflicting these acts on their fellow man/woman. Hope they all rot in hell.

Just a reminder .... we would have been on the same side as these people had we followed David Cameron's wishes and sent troops to topple the Syrian regime.

It's a strange world.

TerriBull Tue 03-Feb-15 18:43:06

No I hadn't forgotten that Riverwalk, this government wanted to arm the rebels although they didn't seem to know who they were or anything about their aims.

POGS Tue 03-Feb-15 19:55:50

I don't think they are anything to do with the Free Syria Army are they??? They have defectors from the Syrian Army at the helm.

They probably detest them as much as you and I. What proof is there they have any connection?

I don't know so I would be interested in facts.

I don't know why I have started this post as I just don't have the words. Just so sad

Penstemmon Tue 03-Feb-15 20:38:58

It is sad, shocking and makes me feel very angry.

I suspect many of the 'rebel' fighters of ISIS and other extreme factions are a mix of thugs who have latched on to a 'cause' to feel they belong, religious bigots, power hungry/ crazed 'faux' religious men and others who have been coerced into joining up lead by a few well hidden shrewd people keen to gain control of land and resources for their own ends like feudal barons. They all need to be got rid of.

I would like to read up a bit more about them. I am afraid to randomly google as I dont know what will pop up.
Where is a good place to learn a bit about where or how they started for example?

Riverwalk Tue 03-Feb-15 20:53:24

Oh, come on soon do you really know nothing about anything?

You ask a lot of innocent questions! Why not find out for yourself.

POGS Tue 03-Feb-15 21:22:31

soon.

Better than making it up.

soontobe Tue 03-Feb-15 21:29:48

As I say, I am afraid to google about this.
I am allowed to be as innocent as I like.
I sure as heck do not want to see a whole load of graphic stuff. I cant see how that is going to help my life or anyone elses'.

soontobe Tue 03-Feb-15 21:32:23

I presume you realise Riverwalk that there are literally millions of people walking around Britain who know virtually nothing about a whole range of current issues. And that cuts across the whole spectrum of society.

Riverwalk Tue 03-Feb-15 21:36:36

soon you say you'd like to read up about them but you are afraid to google ..... there are other avenues of research.

jinglbellsfrocks Tue 03-Feb-15 21:38:08

I'm not sure where IS came from. They seemed to appear so suddenly. Are they separate from the Taliban?

soontobe Tue 03-Feb-15 21:38:26

And that is exactly what I was asking about!
Where is a good place to look?

soontobe Tue 03-Feb-15 21:39:02

That is the sort of thing I want to know too jingl.

soontobe Tue 03-Feb-15 21:39:35

Without finding and seeing gruesome detail.

jinglbellsfrocks Tue 03-Feb-15 21:40:48

I read it has got to do with the fact that there was no after-plan for Iraq. It left an opening for the worst of the evil people out there. I don't think it was anything to do with Syria.
