ISIS shivers in its pajamas: Another Republican Candidate Declares Himself an ~~Anema~~ Enemy of ISIS

Santorum, who is lagging at the bottom of the GOP presidential field, called himself one of ISIS's biggest threats in the race and he noted that terrorists have listed him as an enemy.

"No other presidential candidate has been in ISIS magazine -- they know who I am and I know who they are," he said.

"Do we need another young, inexperienced president to come into office at a time when the world is on fire? ... Commander-in-chief is not an entry-level position."

"This president doesn't plan. ... This president has completely abandoned ship," the Republican presidential hopeful told reporters at the Sunshine Summit in Florida.

"This is delusional," Santorum added. "That's the only way I can put it. ... And people are dying because this president refuses to face the truth."

Santorum said Obama "has no intention of winning" the fight against ISIS and he warned that attacks could hit closer to home.

"I would say to a war-weary country that if we do not begin to take back ground back from ISIS, we will see war visit us here more dramatically and repeatedly," he said.

"I would be launching a major offensive against ISIS right now," Santorum added. "Four bombs a day? Are you serious? That's a public relations war. ... And now we're seeing the consequences ...The public relations value that the president gives ISIS every day by engaging in a war that he has no intention of winning is what you saw in France yesterday."

From the mouths of babes and the rear-ends of horses, as they say, the Truth slowly seeps out.

Brishins give credit to Putin for Obama herrowically killing Jihadi john

Putin 'forced Obama's hand' on ISIS: Russia hailed for making Jihadi John death 'possible'
BRITISH butcher Jihadi John could not have been targeted WITHOUT Russia strongman Vladimir Putin stepping in and ramping up the pressure against Islamic State (ISIS), according to political commentators around the world.

This of course assumes that one should believe the report that this pest is sha'eeded. Probably retired to buy a bar in Los Angeles like all the other US-funded mass murderers?
Gets worse:

Putin has been hailed a "hero" after the British ISIS (i.e., Moderate Pro-Western, English-speaking) militant Mohammed Emwzi, AKA Jihadi John, was reportedly killed in a US drone strike alongside three other most wanted fighters.

Although American military are responsible for the~~savage~~ Moderate fighter’s "evisceration" in a "clean hit", critics claim the US only acted because of the success of Putin's rampant bombing campaign in Syria, which has wiped out hundreds of depraved jihadis.

Tony Brenton, former British ambassador for Russia, said Russia's successful bombing crusade left the US feeling "upset".

Speaking of the feeling in Moscow today, he said: "Russia will welcome the killing if a extremist ISIS person because they are against Islamism in all its forms.

Another tweeted: "Putin makes a fool of Obama and USA, so Jihadi John gets pulled out of the bag of tricks."

Moscow will today be celebrating as ISIS looks to be on the brink after Jihadi John - top of the Russian hitlist and face of the twisted militant group - was obliterated.

The Pentagon said he was struck as he left a building in the depraved terror group's stronghold of Raqqa.

His death has not yet been confirmed but the White House said a well-known British jihadi’s body is currently in a hospital.

Emwazi, a former University of Westminster student, has been the subject of a massive manhunt for more than a year, after first appearing in an execution video in August last year.

The notorious jihadi carried out a number of beheadings of Western hostages in Syria and was top of the British Government’s ‘kill list’ - joining up to a dozen of UK radicals targeted by drone strikes.

The Kremlin was forced to step up a gear in its bombing crusade in Syria after ISIS claimed responsibility for bringing down the Russian plane over Sinai killing all 224 people on board.

The latest criticism of the US is likely to cause tensions in an already strained relationship between Russia and the White House.

Pressure escalated when Russia entered the war in Syria to take on ISIS forces, with America insisting Putin was merely attempting to prop up the country's under-fire leader Bashar al-Assad.
However, an Express.co.uk poll revealed the Russian crusade in Syria has the support of more than two in every three Britons.
More than 27,000 people voted in the poll with 71 per cent saying they "support Vladimir Putin's bombing campaign in Syria".

Putin has already killed more terrorists in a few weeks then Obama has in a few years. Putin understands the threat. Obama is worried about if ice is melting or if the sun is getting too hot. Meanwhile people are dying all over the world at the hands of his Muslim brothers.

clutching at straws as usual and running psyops as usual

---
Some social scientists, policy makers and others have previously suggested that the drought played a role in the Syrian unrest, and the researchers addressed this as well, saying the drought “had a catalytic effect.” They cited studies that showed that the extreme dryness, combined with other factors, including misguided agricultural and water-use policies of the Syrian government, caused crop failures that led to the migration of as many as 1.5 million people from rural to urban areas. This in turn added to social stresses that eventually resulted in the uprising against President Bashar al-Assad in March 2011.

What began as civil war has since escalated into a multifaceted conflict, with at least 200,000 deaths. The United Nations estimates that half of the country’s 22 million people have been affected, with more than six million having been internally displaced.

The researchers said that there were many factors that contributed to the chaos, including the influx of 1.5 million refugees from Iraq, and that it was impossible to quantify the effect of any one event like a drought.

First, is Jihadi John really dead?

Second, I've said this before and I will repeat - There is something of a "Bounty Hunting" tradition in the US. From the fast men in Wild West to the Dronacharya's of today. They are not interested in finishing the root cause or the Bounty Hunting will stop.

Bin Laden, Saddam Hussein, Assad, Jihadi John and numerous individuals are painted as "The Enemy". Almost like Orwellian 1984 the GOTUS declares a new head with a Bounty and organises hate sessions (Newspaper columns) painting these villains as the next big target. They go for them and claim victory.

Had they taken down ISIS, these individual trophies and their hunting would stop. The message is - ISIS HQ is not important, Jihadi John is important. One is an organisation the other an individual. Over the last 1+ year, the US has shown its impotence in taking on the organisational set up of ISIS. However, every 02 months or so we have heard of the attempts on Al Baghdadi. As per reports Al Baghdadi was injured and went for treatment in some Turkish hospital. I still wonder why the US did not bother following up on this with Turkey and catching him there?

There are numerous other news report on Baghdadi's death with some more dates. Just (Go)ogle!

So being sceptical of this trophy hunt being over is natural. How many Talibunnies have had multiple deaths? And when Mulla Omar died we were not told for 02 years. He died in Pakistan and CIA did not know this.

P.S. I am happy if the scum is dead, I would be happier if they could have cleared the drain (ISIS HQ) next to the scum. On the scale of barbarity and killings ISIS have undertaken in Syria and Iraq, Jihadi John wouldn't figure in the top 50 (Just my opinion).

Interpol Wanted Saudi Prince Arrested at Casablanca Airport
Rabat- A prince from Saudi
Arabia was arrested by Moroccan authorities at Mohammed V Airport in
Casablanca on Thursday and placed in custody at the prison of Salé,
according to Moroccan daily Al Massae’s weekend edition.
The Saudi prince was about to board a
Casablanca-Paris flight when border police discovered that his identity
matched that of a man wanted by Interpol office in Saudi Arabia for whom
an international arrest warrant had been issued.
According to sources cited by the daily,
the Saudi prince whose identity has not been revealed to the press, was
arrested by undercover police when waiting to get Morocco’s exit stamp
on his passport.
The suspect and another Saudi national
who was traveling with him were prevented from leaving Moroccan
territory and asked to enter a separate room for investigation.
After confirming his identity with
Interpol, both men were officially arrested and sent to Rabat to comply
with warrant procedures, the same source noted.
The Saudi prince and his companion were
presented to the public prosecutor who ordered their preventive
detention at the Salé prison.
Saudi and Moroccan authorities are
allegedly working on the case to define an outcome and possible
extradition of the Saudi nationals.
Two other Saudi princes have been
arrested in the last two months. On October 26, Lebanese authorities
detained a Saudi prince after seizing two tons of amphetamines inside a
private plane set to depart Beirut.
Last September, Saudi prince Majed Majed
bin Abdullah bin Abdulaziz was arrested after being accused of sexually
assaulting a maid and four others at his mansion in Beverly Hills, in
California.

Habal Saar, not sure but ever since I heard about the tail plane thing in this crash I was reminded of the JAL 747 crash (Flight 123, 1985).

Recently (after the Sinai crash) Discovery / Nat Geo re-aired a programme on that crash. The 747 had come out of some tail touch some years earlier, had a lot of flight hours after the servicing and in that the whole tail plane had not been lost but just the rudder section. The aircraft suffered decompressive explosions as the rivets failed in the tail section and thereafter entered a Phugoidal rapid descent with pilots unable to anything.

In the Sinai crash, the 321 it seems lost the whole tail section hence the descent was rapid.

I am only guessing here that causes could be similar.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan_Airlines_Flight_123

Cause

Correct and incorrect splice plate installation to the bulkhead

An animation of the previous tailstrike incident
The official cause of the crash according to the report published by Japan's Aircraft Accident Investigation Commission is as follows:
The aircraft was involved in a tailstrike incident at Osaka International Airport seven years earlier as JAL Flight 115, which damaged the aircraft's rear pressure bulkhead.
The subsequent repair of the bulkhead did not conform to Boeing's approved repair methods. The Boeing technicians fixing the aircraft used two separate splice plates, one with two rows of rivets and one with only one row when the procedure called for one continuous splice plate (essentially a patch or doubler plate) with three rows of rivets to reinforce the damaged bulkhead.[24] The incorrect repair reduced the part's resistance to metal fatigue to about 70% compared to the correctly executed repair. According to the Federal Aviation Administration, the one splice plate which was specified for the job was cut into two pieces parallel to the stress crack it was intended to reinforce, "to make it fit".[25] This negated the effectiveness of one of the rows of rivets. During the investigation, Boeing calculated that this incorrect installation would fail after approximately 10,000 pressurizations; the aircraft accomplished 12,318 successful flights from the time that the faulty repair was made to when the crash happened.
When the bulkhead gave way, the resulting explosive decompression ruptured the lines of all four hydraulic systems and ejected the vertical stabilizer. With the aircraft's flight controls disabled, the aircraft became uncontrollable.

About tell a tail

There are two factors with a third one looming close

1) the tail touching the run way and inducing stresses in the airframe

2) Repair induced stresses into the fuselage

3) The fatigue induced revival of the residual stress from 1 and 2

There is no way to relieve the stresses completely after repair, even a newly manufactured airframe can not be completely devoid of stress. Because there will be changes in the grain structure after annealing no matter what.

Also only destructive testing is available for proof of existence of stress ultra sound , X-ray , magnetometer analysis is as good as radiology and MRI inference about patient/ subject, only upon opening up the subject/ patient can tell the complete picture
