CAIRO — An American-Egyptian man born in Pittsburgh is missing in Syria and reported dead in fighting between Islamic militants and Kurdish militia.
If true, Amiir Farouk Ibrahim, 32, would be the second American known to have been killed in Syria's civil war.
Family members said he traveled to Turkey in February or March and later crossed into Syria, where Syrian rebels and foreign Islamist fighters have battled government troops for more than two years.
Ibrahim told his parents that he was providing humanitarian assistance there, although his father said he did not believe that.
His Facebook page contains numerous references in support of radical Islamists.

The father of the Michigan woman who died in Syria called the FBI and tried to have her passport pulled.
Good riddance, jihadi filth. If we could just deport the rest of ‘em to that hellhole, and they wind-up the same, it’d be a nice day over here.
Farouk you, Amiir, and the camel you rode in on.
Can’t we just get ALL our U.S.-born Muslims to go to Syria or Egypt and join the Jihad? The ones who aren’t killed could then be denied re-entry!
Please, do not refer to Islamic Jihadists as “Americans” any longer.
They may be many things, but American isn’t one of them.
Interesting how the NSA could get all of Christine O’Donnell’s tax records but they could not find this bloke’s Facebook page...
The most overlooked detail of this article is he was killed by Kurds. The Kurds are taking more control of their lands. First the government pulled out and gave administrative authority to the Kurds. Now the Kurds are fighting Islamist in their areas.
Does this dead guy qualify for a Darwin Award?
“Kurds are taking more control of their lands.”
Turkey is terrified of a united Kurdistan or even a more united Kurdistan.
