Barely 24 hours after the Islamic state(ISIS) executed the 26 year old Jordanian Pilot Lieutenant Moaz al-Kasasbeh, Jordan has executed two Al-Qaeda prisoners.
According to reports, agovernment spokesperson confirmed the execution of the two prisoners namely Sajida al-Rishawi and Ziad al-Karbouli. The execution took place at sunrise at the Swaqa prison in Amman(Jordan's Capital).
Al-Rishawi was on death row for her role in a triple hotel bombing in the Jordanian capital Amman in 2005 that killed dozens. Al-Karbouly was sent to death row in 2008 for plotting terror attacks on Jordanians in Iraq.
Jordan had twice offered to swap her for the pilot. However, officials have said his captors did not deliver proof of life and the swap never happened.
The 26-year-old first lieutenant was taken hostage in ISIL's stronghold of Raqqa, Syria, after his F-16 jet crashed in December. Hope more is done to stop ISIL.

Like they say, it doesn't hurt them when they lose a member (though Osama showed fear prior to his death according to the soldiers). So I believe that this retaliation by the Jordanian govt may never be a game changer... may God keep HIS own in perfect peace
ReplyDeleteno it may not be a game changer but it shows them that silence isn't stupidity. and means that Europe and other countries fighting ISIL need to fortify themselves. God ll kip his own
