One of the Islamist activists who attacked IDF soldiers aboard the Mavi Marmara flotilla in 2010 has reportedly been killed in a US airstrike in Syria, as he was fighting alongside Islamist terrorists.
40-year-old Bulent Alniak was killed in a US airstrike in Idlib, northwestern Syria, on a target identified as belonging to the Islamic State terrorist group (IS, also known as ISIS or ISIL), according to the Turkish World Bulletin website.
According to that report, Alniak was carrying out aid work ahead of the upcoming Muslim festival of Eid al-Adha.
But other sources have suggested a somewhat less peaceful motive. Another Turkish outlet, T24, claimed Alniak was in Syria fighting alongside the Nusra FrontAl Qaedas official branch in Syria. It said he had arrived in Syria over the past summer, on the second day of Ramadan, and also claimed he was killed in Idlib.

Enjoy the Eid al-Adha feast and the 72 syphilitic goats or whatever you got, Ainiak.
Sucks to be them.
Grab both hind legs and pull. Even a bull dog will turn loose usually.
Good—now only another 3 million more or so and we may have peace around the world.

“Aid work”
Aid is part of definition of treason: “Providing aid and comfort” to the enemy in a time of war.
There is a notion of “humanitarian aid”. The pro-Islamists aren’t interested in that.
I’m sorry, but I lost my scorecard...Can somebody please tell me who we are bombing, why are we bombing them and what, if any, objectives are there that we are attempting to achieve through this bombing...
all you need to know is there is an election in November. We’re showing how tough a democrat can really be.
Of course he couldn't ride it in exactly like Slim did. Slim was a good guy!
Tough enough to get us into massive messes. Not tough enough to keep us out of them.
Going back a few years both in Iraq & Afghanistan we seemed to bomb a wedding celebration on a regular basis ... many at 0400 hours local.

Obama is deeply saddened, he didn’t mean to do that.
