ISIS, a terrorists group based out of Syria, stirred up
trouble with Jordan as they captured a Jordanian pilot and burned him to death.
Jordan, frustrated about the event that just took place, retaliated with a
strike of their own. They sent out thirty fighter jets to strike back at the
terrorist group. Jordanians stated, “This is just the beginning and you shall
know who the Jordanians are.” The planned ISIS targets were their training
camps and arms and ammunition deposits. Both were claimed to be hit and destroyed.
Jordan’s minister, Nasser Judeh, stated with confidence that this was just the beginning
of the retaliation of the pilot’s death. The Jordan government fired up about
the event stated “we are going after them wherever they are, and with everything
we have.” Safi al-Kasasbeh, the pilot’s father, was enraged to hear about his
son’s death and told CNN that King Abdullah II had promised him that Jordan
would avenge his son’s death. Jordan is not the only country that is dealing
with the terrorist group. United States is leading many Eastern nations and
Jordan happens to be one of them. ISIS revealed the video of the pilot’s death
and that caused surrounding nations to vow strong actions towards them. The country
is trying to strategize their attacks for substantial results. Another big
action took place against the ISIS group where Jordan executed two prisoners of
moderate value to the terrorist organization. ISIS wanted to send a message to
surrounding nations by displaying the slaughter of the pilot repeatedly on big
screens around the city of Raqqa. It is obvious the fire is fueled between the two
countries and the fighter attacks has helped unite the Muslims against ISIS.
