    A top ISIS executioner was moments away from burning 12 hostages alive
    The SAS marksman fired a single 50. round at the flame thrower's fuel tank
    Bullet caused explosion which killed the feared ISIS leader and henchmen
    Rescue operation took place in village near Raqqa, Syria earlier this month[CN]

一名伊斯兰国组织刽子手即将活生生烧死12人质。英国特种航空队神射手射出0.05英寸口径子弹,击中喷火器的燃料箱。子弹引起爆炸,炸死这名备受惊吓的伊斯兰国领袖和随从。这个月早些时候,解救行动就在叙利亚挨近拉卡市的村庄里展开了。

The bullet hit the flame thrower's fuel tank and caused a huge fireball, also killing three other ISIS members who were ready to film the execution.
[CN]

子弹打中喷火器的燃料箱,产生巨大火球,其余三名拍摄此次处决事件的三名伊斯兰国分子也一并丧命。

A source told the Daily Star Sunday how the rescue operation took place in a tiny village near Raqqa, Syria, earlier this month.

Shortly after the explosion, the prisoners - thought to be civilians - were freed by British and US special forces. 

The ISIS executioner killed in the mission is said to have been on a US 'kill list' for several months, due to his method of slaughtering prisoners by burning them alive.

The source told the newspaper: “The SAS team moved into an overwatch position above a village where they were told the execution was going to take place.

“Up to 12 civilians were going to be murdered – eight men and four women. They were suspected of being spies. 

“The executioner gave some sort of rambling speech over a loud hailer then when he finished the SAS sniper opened fire.'

The rescue comes a few months after another SAS sniper took out two ISIS car bombers with a single shot when they were driving towards their target in Libya.

The heroic sharpshooter saved hundreds of lives by hitting the driver in the head with a deadly shot from 1,000m.

The bullet went through the driver's skull and lodged in the passenger's neck, killing them both.

The jihadis were transporting a massive bomb to Tripoli where they planned to detonate it in a packed market, intelligence revealed.

He is deep in enemy territory, moving carefully and he will have people watching his back because he is a target. We don't know how many of them have been taken yet, but the probability is that some have. Each time you fire you run the risk of giving your position away to a Daesh sniper. That is how this affair is conducted. Why don't you have a go at it?[CN]

他深入敌军腹地,小心移动,他自己就是个靶子,随时有人在后面监视着他。我们不知道有多战士被干掉了,死的还不在少数。每次开枪都会暴露他们的位置给敌方狙击手。这事本来就这个样子的。你去试试看?

Actually, look at it another way. This man is a volunteer. He puts himself in considerable danger, and a level of stress and discomfort that many of us could not endure. He does so for a relatively small amount of money and an average pension, both hedged with rule se, regulations and restrictions. He knows he stands the risk of death or mutilation, and he knows of all the issues surrounding his care and treatment. So, whilst I can agree with your point about killing someone, to me he is a hero already.

You forget we are basically fighting cowards when they feel their life's are in danger by a sniper they will run and hide.

Because at 1500 meters away he could hear the speach and was so enthralled by it he listened to it all.

"Lovers of death" won't inherit the Kingdom of God, but those who love justice will. King David prayed that God would bring an end to his enemies. When interpreting Scriptures, context matters.

As St. Augustine himself said, there are times when we have to take the sword to defend ourselves and to prevent the evil ones from annihilating us. Had the ancestors of the Spaniards, Slavic nations, Greeks and Indians thought like you, the empire of evil would have had a lot more territory, resources and manpower than what they have now.

Myth busters were using small arms 9mm 38 45 cal. like in the "movies" Not 37 pound behemoth 50 Caliber armor piercing Rifle. @ 50yds a round can pierce 2" armorlite. armor a fuel tank would be no problem.

Martyn - a fuel tab key is not a gas canister for a start, but Mythbusters were testing typical pistol rounds which have a very low striking energy compared to that of rifles - which in turn, have low energy when compared to a Barret "50" - which is a whole different ball game.

You act as if all bullet are the same. The military and certainly an SAS operator are well-aware of their bullets' capabilities and are not going to arm themselves with bullets that cannot penetrate a gas cylinder.

Charlie, I do research on Trove, Australia's library of digitalised newspapers. I have never come across the propaganda that you speak of, on the contrary WW11 period has detailed information of battles fought and those who lost their lives. maybe you are remembering schoolyard propaganda? But since you are in your late 70's, early 80's and still on the internet I suggest you go and have a look at Trove (just google it)

Seen myth busters where they solved the myth of exploding petrol tanks by shooting them. They proved that unlike films and computer games, petrol tanks etc do not explode when shot by a bullet. Fake story made up by the daily mail as they have nothing else going on at the moment.

Idiot. You should read more accounts from WW2. The whole lot does go up with a bang if you puncture the main tank whilst the nozzle is alight. The initial impact at such a high velocity causes the fuel to be sprayed outwards in all directions. Some gets on to the lighted nozzle and "WHOOSH!"

Sorry I'd rather believe a TV show that does controlled tests than a story that a 5 year old could make up by watching James Bond. Why would the sniper shoot the tank anyway and not the actual target? This isnt hollywood u idiots. None of our soldiers get anywhere near isis anyway, all we're doing are drone strikes u idiots lol when did we start the ground assault?

If a high velocity bullet piecers a fuel tank, the fuel combusts due to the pressure and the ignition point of the chemical in the fuel, also once open to oxygen...it explodes even more !

Your comment just shows your ignorance and lack of understanding on how a sniper is chosen, trained and after training operates. Also before you comment just have a look at the specification of the Barrett .50 rifle. Highly trained marksman, Barrett .50 high velocity rifle this is a deadly combination.
