An ISIS death squad became known as "the Beatles" among the people they held hostage because all four members had grown up in London before becoming radicalized and joining ISIS. The group was known for torture and execution, including the beheading of western hostages. Yesterday, it was revealed that two of the four members of the group, El Shafee Elsheikh and Alexanda Amon Kotey, were captured in Syria last month. From the BBC:
The group of four British men were radicalised in the UK before travelling to Syria, where they became infamous for their high-profile executions of Western hostages.
US officials believe the "execution cell" beheaded more than 27 Western hostages and tortured many more.
Each was known to their hostages by their respective Beatles moniker - Paul, Ringo, John and George.
The Associated Press notes that the group is believed to have beheaded several American hostages:
The two men are among four members of the IS cell that captured, tortured and beheaded more than two dozen hostages including American journalists James Foley and Steven Sotloff, and American aid worker Peter Kassig ...
Sotloff was kidnapped in August 2013 after crossing into Syria from Turkey. He was killed on Sept. 2, 2014, and a video was distributed around the world documenting his death. Foley, another American journalist, had been killed a month earlier by the Islamic State. Kassig was an American aid worker captured by Islamic State militants in 2013 while delivering relief supplies to refugees in Syria.
There is some question about what will happen with Elsheikh and Kotey. U.S. authorities have not said whether they will be sent to Gitmo. Today, there were calls to have them tried in the UK: ...
The other two members of the terror group known as the Beatles were Mohammed Emwazi aka Jihadi John, who was killed in a US airstrike in 2015, and Aine Davis who was captured in 2015 and convicted of terrorism charges in Turkey last year. ...
After we get EVERY BIT OF INFORMATION out of them we want, they should be thrown in a cell with Hillary Clinton and Yoko Ono. I imagine it will only be a matter of days (hours, minutes, seconds?) before they will be begging for the sweet relief of death.
