Not all conservatives used the death of American hostage Kayla Mueller to highlight the brutality of the Islamic State — some decided to focus their disgust on the 26-year-old's humanitarian work for Palestinians.
"No tears for the newly-departed Kayla Mueller, the ISIS hostage whose parents confirmed today that she is dead," conservative blogger Debbie Schlussel wrote on Tuesday, under the headline, "Kayla Mueller: Dead ISIS Hostage Was Jew-Hating, Anti-Israel Bitch."
"Mueller was a Jew-hating, anti-Israel piece of crap who worked with HAMAS and helped Palestinians harass Israeli soldiers and block them from doing their job of keeping Islamic terrorists out of Israel," she wrote.
Schlussel condemned Mueller's humanitarian work in the "so-called 'West Bank'" to prevent the demolition of "terrorists' 'houses.'"
. . . . "And my attitude when I hear they’ve been snuffed out is, so sad, too bad."
Schlussel called the killing of Mueller "poetic justice."

According to Wikipedia, Schlussel:
is an American attorney, film critic, political commentator, and a blogger. She has been published in the New York Post, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Times and The Jerusalem Post among other media.
Unfortunately, this is the sort of mentality that permeates the extreme Zionist right-wing. Both in Israel and in the U.S. E.g., Caroline Glick, Pamela Geller and Mark Levin.
