(Rebels sold Steven Sotloff’s location to ISIS for thousands, family rep says)

Steven Sotloff
+
This summer, we crammed in sun and sea and sand, ice cream and tomatoes and zucchini. We packed up and dropped off: first one child, then the other.
(CNN) The family of slain American hostage Steven Sotloff believes ISIS paid as much as $50,000 to rebels who alerted the militant group that the journalist had entered Syria, a spokesman told CNN.
+
Leaving the house <a href=http://www.museosangennaro.com/Public/anel.php> Christian Louboutin Shoes UK</a>  quiet. We looked at each other, puzzled. It had been 17 years since we d been alone, together. We fled to Spain.
The family had learned from sources on the ground that a member of a moderate rebel group reached out to ISIS, Barak Barfitold told CNN s Anderson Cooper 360 on Monday.
+
In Spain, we crammed in art and architecture and adventure. Soon we gave up on packing in and took up hanging out. We slept. We strolled. We sipped vermouth, with a cool breeze and warm guitar wafting over the rooftops.
Somebody at the border crossing made a phone call to ISIS, and they set up a fake checkpoint with many people, Barfi said. Steve and his people that he went in with could not escape.
+
We dined on fat chickpeas, tiny clams, hot sausage, thin ham. Every meal started with pa amb tomaquet 鈥?bread grilled golden and rubbed with fresh tomato. Pale, rosy, sweet.
Barfi said the tipster was one of the so-called moderate rebels that people want our administration to support.  
+
We all came home flush with fresh stories and stale laundry. In the clamor, we toasted up a snack, <a href=http://www.alportico.net/prodotti/christianlouboutin-sale.jkmsw.php>Christian Louboutin</a>  and remembered the waiters rubbing tomato into bread, so strong, so serious about the art of letting go.
So how much was the tip worth?
+
TOMATO BREAD
Sotloff s whereabouts were sold for something between $25- and $50,000, Barfi said.
+
Prep: 5 minutes
False accusations
+
 
Sotloff, a 31-year-old freelance journalist, disappeared during a reporting trip to Syria in August 2013. Barfi said last saw his friend off the morning he disappeared.
+
Cook: 2 minutes
Minutes before he was kidnapped, he called me from inside Syria to tell me that he was in, Barfi said.
+
 
Sotloff was supposedly turned over because his name was on a list of people responsible for a hospital bombing, his friend said.
+
Serves: All of Catalonia
This was false. Activists spread his name around, Barfi told Cooper.
+
Olive oil
In fact, Steve <a href=http://www.aec-ist.com/css/Gucci-Discount-Flora-Perfume-Boston-Scarfs.html>Gucci Boston</a>  loved the Arab and Islamic world, and he wanted to bring their suffering to the world stage, Barfi said. He believed that everybody was created equal, and the people in the Arab and Islamic world weren t terrorists, they were just people like you and me.  
+
 
Was the beheading preventable?
+
Garlic
The gruesome video of an ISIS militant decapitating Sotloff spurred international outrage at ISIS, the Islamist terror group that refers to itself as the Islamic State. The group is trying to establish strict Islamist rule over swaths of Syria and Iraq and has captured cities in <a href=http://www.aec-ist.com/css/Gucci-Outlet-Online-Money-Clip-Mens-Jacket-Mens-Jeans.html>Gucci Money Clip</a>  both countries.
+
 
But that video wasn t the first time Sotloff was featured in an ISIS message.
+
Baguette
Sotloff appeared in the earlier decapitation video of James Foley, another American journalist who was beheaded by an ISIS militant. In that video, a militant said Sotloff s life depended on what President Barack Obama did next.
+
 
Once Steve appeared in that video, the Sotloff family made one simple request of the administration and they were rebuffed on that, Barfi told CNN. He declined to elaborate on the request, citing the safety of those who are still being held hostage.
+
Ripe tomato
He said the relationship between the Sotloff family and the White House was very strained.
+
 
We do not believe they gave us the cooperation (the family needed), he said.
+
Flaky salt, such as Maldon
National Security Council spokeswoman Caitlin Hayden said the administration is still committed to the cases of Sotloff and Foley.
+
Season: Pour olive oil into a small bowl. Slice garlic and stir in.
We understand the very real pain the Sotloff family is feeling at this time. Our thoughts and prayers are with them as they grieve Steven s loss, Hayden said.
+
 
We condemn the murders of Steven and Jim Foley and we remain committed to bringing the perpetrators of these crimes to justice.
+
Brush: Slice baguette in half the long way; open. <a href=http://www.avanttravel.com/michaelkorssonline.php> michael kors handbags</a>  Brush cut sides lightly with the flavored olive oil.
But Barfi also lamented the release of information about an unsuccessful U.S. commando raid this summer that attempted to free Foley, Sotloff and others.
+
 
We know that the intelligence community and the White House are enmeshed in a larger game of bureaucratic infighting, and Jim and Steve are pawns in that game. And that s not fair, Barfi said.
+
Broil: Set bread on a broiler rack. Slide under a hot broiler until golden brown, about 2 minutes.
If there continues to be leaks, the Sotloff family will have to speak out to set the record straight.
+
 
Up to $10 million reward
+
Rub: Slice tomato in half along its equator. Rub cut side of tomato against toasted faces of the baguette, covering it with pale red pulp. Best to do this with the strong hand and furrowed brow of a Barcelona waiter.
A group of bipartisan senators introduced a bill Monday that would authorize up to $10 million for information leading to the arrest and conviction of anyone involved in the Foley <a href=http://www.aec-ist.com/css/Gucci-Belts-Online-Wholesale-Clothing-For-Less-Aviator-Sunglasses.html>Gucci Wholesale Clothing</a>  and Sotloff abductions and beheadings.
+
 
James Foley and Steven Sotloff nobly risked their lives in the pursuit of truth, and the United States will not stand idly by after two of its own were brutally murdered at the hands of fundamentally evil and freedom-hating extremists, Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Florida, said in a statement.
+
Slice: Drizzle bread with more garlic oil. Sprinkle with salt. Slice on the diagonal into 1-inch-wide wedges. Enjoy plain or topped with ham, cheese or sausage.
Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, D-New Hampshire, echoed that sentiment.
+
James and Steven contributed greatly to the world through their reporting, and we must vigorously pursue those responsible for their murders.
