Jordan Executes Prisoners in Response to ISIS

By Gldmeier @gldmeier

So, Jordan took revenge on ISIS and executed a couple of terrorist prisoners they were holding in prison that were associated with ISIS.
1. Is that an effective response? Does ISIS even care, or are they now going to be made out to be martyrs? Does this create any deterrence?
2. They were not given the death sentence as the result of a fair trial. It was just a decision in order to avenge the brutal murder of a Jordanian by ISIS. Is that the right thing to do? Does the world not care that Jordan just did this? and this leads to #3
3. If Israel did the same, in response to terror attacks against its citizens, would the world react the same way - i.e. not care - or would Israel be condemned?
