    Compared to other insurgent groups in the world, ISIS is quite adept at kidnapping foreigners. Compare Iraq war with Afghanistan. In Afghanistan you had maybe 40 people get captured between 2001-2015. In Iraq between 2003-2009 there were over 200 people captured. This does not include all AQI (ISIS predecessor), nor Westerners, but there were female Americans captured during this time. No American children would be in the region. ISIS has killed and captured a large number of indigenous Christian women/children to date. Kidnapping is a significant tactic and revenue stream that ISIS relies on. BTW, it doesn't matter if the person is Christian. If they are not the same sect of Islam as ISIS, ISIS will consider them apostates and kill/capture/torture them, and getting captured by them almost certainly means torture, if female, rape, followed by death.

    I don't think there has been a single case of this. ISIS is active in the middle east, not the USA. It's conceivable but it would have to be an American Christian Female who was there for some specific reason - a member of a relief organisation or something like that. ISIS is a huge problem for the people resident in the areas under their influence but they are not much of a threat to the domestic USA.

    ISIS is a creation of Saudi Arabia and Israel. If the US and its allies really wanted to, they could have easily crushed it like they did Saddam Hussein and Muammar Gaddafi. Now, ONLY Russia has taken some concrete steps to crush ISIS in Syria. This too is not liked by the West. This exposes their real intentions. They are not really serious about finishing ISIS. ISIS is their baby.
