TEHRAN -- A United States citizen working in Syria with a militant group backed by al-Qaida has conducted a suicide bombing there on Sunday, American officials said.
The suicide attack first surfaced on Tuesday in Twitter messages from the al-Nusra Front, a terrorist group in Syria aligned with al-Qaida in the multi-national war in Syria, Al-Alam reported.
American officials, speaking on the condition of anonymity because intelligence matters were involved, declined to identify the American or provide any information about him.
NBC News first reported that American government officials had confirmed the bomber was an American. Syrian opposition social media sites reported that the American went by the name Abu Huraira al-Amriki and carried out the suicide truck bombing in the Northern province of Idlib.
A photo circulated on extremist social media accounts showed a smiling young man who was said to be the bomber. He had a blond beard and was holding a cat to his chest.

Why would you bring this propaganda here? His life was every bit as sacrosanct as Anwar al-Awlaki's. His death is a tragedy. He was American, after all.

Glad he's dead.

Mccain and obama approve, as they are providing the arms to those folks.

I'm just hoping 'Bloody Barack' doesn't use it as an excuse to send in American troops..

frick you. You don't strike me as much of nothing.
You don't discuss posts. All you do is attack. A mouthy little punk bitch. I'll bet you aren't nearly as bold in real life.

That's rich. You're a feisty one, cubby.

Why would this be the impetus to send in troops?
Some dipshit decided to blow himself up. He just so happened to be an American citizen. Good fricking riddance as far as I'm concerned.

...and you're a piece of shite that runs post to post attacking people.
Now that we have established what the other is, want to discuss the OP topic?

I agree, but you have to feel for the victims.
Posted on 5/30/14 at 8:42 pm to SavageOrangeJug
Well yeah, I feel for all the non-combatants stuck in the hellhole that is the Middle East.
That place is the armpit of the earth.

Well the first part of your post is entirely untrue, but we can move on. I'm sure there have been numerous debates on here over the last several years RE: the treatment of Americans serving as operatives in terrorist organizations, but I got pretty deeply involved in one in January of last year. I was stuck as a liaison in Jordan with shite to do, so I had the opportunity to engage the board on these issues. Almost to the man, there was nothing to be found but outrage and horror over the targeting of American citizens embedded with foreign terrorist organizations. I probably lost more respect for your kind of conservative in those few weeks than in any cumulative period of my life combined. The Snowden debacle just put a cherry on it. I quit posting for about four months after that.
You're probably as big a shitbag as most who defended Alwaki and Snowden.

You're right. With Nigeria he is up to what now, 7 nations with some sort of military action? Bush was 4.
They do share some of those nations though.

This is especially silly/ignorant given how he stepped all over his own dick with the red line
