Gotcha, I didn't really think that one through enough, if they cancel accounts as soon as they can, I guess that's all they can do.

Jordan confirmed on Wednesday that “The Jordanian King Abdullah II will participate personally on Thursday in conducting air strikes against the shelters of the terrorist ISIL organization to revenge the execution of the Jordanian pilot Maath al-Kassasba by the ISIL.”

This might renew some of my faith in Jordan's military.

I know it is against forum rules to insult my fellow posters, but you sir, are an absolute lunatic. Go get yourself some help before you hurt someone. Your ideas are highly offensive to moderate Muslims like myself and it makes me extremely sad that Canada still has garbage like you living in it.

Your moderate Muslim views and way of life are a way better representation of what I believe to be Canadian than any of his beliefs or ideals.

You can tell he means business too, because he's obviously already dropped nukes on Carriage-returnistan.

Jordan has a fairly good monarchy. Abdullah II's wife Queen Rania is an impressive lady as well.

Nicholson said one mission took place Wednesday and involved CF-18s hitting a compound that was used as a staging area for extremists who've been launching guerilla-style raids into Baghdad.
Another attack took place Feb. 3, when the Canadian fighter-bombers supported Iraqi troops operating southwest of Mosul, the country's second largest city, which was overrun last summer by the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS).

I've been hearing more about the King that he's very secular, does anyone have any links that they can find discussing that more, having little luck.

What a bada$$ though!

He didn't personally fly a plane and drop bombs...

But I do like this quote

A statement read on Jordanian state television declared: “This the beginning and you will get to know the Jordanians.”

ISIS saying that the female U.S. aid worker that they were holding hostage was killed last night in the attack by Jordan.

i see no reason not to take them at their word.

A British jihadist who travelled to Syria then faked his own death to try to return to the UK undetected has been given a 12-year custodial sentence. Imran Khawaja, 27, from west London, joined a militant group with links to so-called Islamic State while overseas.
He was pictured posing with severed heads during his six months in Syria.
He was arrested in Dover last June and later admitted preparing for acts of terrorism, attending a camp, receiving training and possessing firearms.

Judge Mr Justice Baker said Khawaja posed "a significant risk of serious harm" to the public. He will serve a minimum of eight years and also serve five years on licence.

Which is all well and good until you read.

Analysis: BBC home affairs correspondent Dominic Casciani

He could have received a life sentence - but while his extended term is long, it is a slightly shorter term than one given to two Birmingham men who were jailed last year.
Sentencing rules make clear that those who engage in the most serious forms of terrorism can receive terms that are designed to deter others from following them.

Which begs the question why didn't they throw life at him?

Maybe he cooperated?
