Isis Offered to Swap The Beheaded American Journalist Foley for A Notorious Female Prisoner 'lady Al Qaeda' Fashion Isis Offered to Swap The Beheaded American Journalist Foley for A Notorious Female Prisoner 'lady Al Qaeda'
Before the American journalist James Foley was executed, the ISIS grouped offered America government a 'laundry list' of what what they want as a ransom which also included releasing of a MIT-educated neuroscientist terrorist known as 'Lady al Qaeda'. Aafia Siddiqu who is a mother of three children is serving 86 years in a Texas jail after being arrested with plans for a 'mass casualty attack' in the US, including infecting people with Ebola and a dirty bomb.
According to New York Times, President Barack Obama's administration refused to consider releasing Siddiqui, or handing over a $132 million ransom.
Karachi-born Siddiqui, 42, attended two New England universities. She gained a PhD from Brandeis and then trained as a neuroscientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
She founded the Institute of Islamic Research and Teaching while living in the U.S. Mother-of-three Siddiqui, who is 5 ft. 4 in. and weighs just 90 lb, was on the FBI's Most Wanted Terrorist list after 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed mentioned her name during his 2003 interrogation.
Siddiqui, who is divorced from her first husband is now married to Ammar al-Baluchi, one of the 9/11 masterminds, who is currently being held in Guantanamo. He is the nephew of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. Burqa-clad Siddiqui was arrested in Ghanzi, Afghanistan in 2008 after a local saw her poring over a map.
When she was held she had detailed plans on how to kill by spreading Ebola, making a dirty bomb and even a theoretical chemical weapon that somehow spared children while killing adults.
She also had two pounds of highly toxic sodium cyanide hidden in her bag and documents detailing potential New York targets for attack including Wall Street, the Empire State Building, the Brooklyn Bridge, the Statue of Liberty and the subway system.

While Obama did swap five Taliban prisoners in exchange for suspected deserter Bowe Bergdahl, who was freed on May 31 to huge controversy,Obama authorized a daring rescue mission over the July 4 weekend that failed in the Syrian desert.
At least five ISIS militants were killed and one American soldier was wounded as the raid failed because the terrorists had moved Foley and other hostages including Miami journalist Steven Sotloff away from the base in Syria's northern Raqqa province.
