More than a year ago, James Foley, an American photojournalist was reported missing in Syria. Numerous reports claimed he had been kidnapped by unidentified gunmen. A new video has surfaced that appears to show Foley being beheaded alive by ISIS.

In the ISIS produced video, which is titled "A Message to America," a man identified as Foley is seen on his knees, dressed all in orange, in the desert. He has a small black microphone clipped to his collar.

Standing over him is man dressed all in black, including a black turban that covers everything but his eyes.

The Islamic State opens with video of President Obama announcing military action against ISIS in Iraq. ISIS then accuses the president of being on a "slippery slope against Muslims."

“Any attempt by you, Obama, to deny Muslims liberty & safety under the Islamic caliphate," The black-clad terrorist warns, "Will result in the bloodshed of your people.”

Obviously under duress, Foley than calls on his "friends, family members and loved ones to rise up against my real killers, the U.S. government." Foly is forced to blame the U.S. government and the airstrikes for his execution. That is what “hammered the final nail into my coffin,” he says.

After Foley is brutally beheaded alive, ISIS brings out another man the group claims is American journalist Steven Sotloff.  If Obama doesn’t listen to their demands, ISIS promises to murder him next. 

The video, which is extremely disturbing and graphic, can be viewed here.

sorry not posting it here

This makes me physically ill.  What the hell is going on in this world right now?  How can good people sleep at night with this kind of abomination happening?  How do we survive something this monstrous if we're not willing to kill it before it's too late?  My God!

The Leftist media will bury this story (as much as they can). They wouldn't want to disparage their Islamic brothers.
 
If you want to slam Israel, no problem. If you want to slam Christians, no problem. But the minute the real actual murderers, the Islamists, kill another person, or hundreds of people, or thousands of people, not a word is said about it.
 
If you still do not believe that the American Left and radical Islam are in a defacto partnership, then you are not paying attention.

Here's what he said...

'I call on my friends family and loved ones to rise up against my real killers, the US government. For what will happen to me is only a result of their complacency and criminality.
'My message to my beloved parents: save me some dignity and don't accept any (unclear, possibly says media) compensation for my death, from the same people who effectively hit the last nail in my coffin with a recent aerial campaign in Iraq.

'I call on my brother John, who is/was (that part is inaudible) member of the US Air Force, think about what you are doing, think about lives you destroy including those of your own family.

'I call on you John, think about who made the decision to bomb Iraq recently and kill those people, whoever they may have been.

'Think John, who did they really kill? Did they think about me, you our family when they made that decision?

'I died that day John, when your colleagues dropped that bomb on those people -- they signed my death certificate.

'I wish I had more time, I wish I could have the hope of freedom and see my family once again, but that ship has sailed. I guess all in all, I wish I wasn't American.'

From the statements I've heard, it's like ISIS is daring us to go to war with them.   Looks like they are going to keep escalating it until we have to.

Why would the US go to war with a JV team?   :pondering:

I'm going to interject a little reality here and then ask you a question.

Nothing  - and I do mean nothing - is going to be settled in the Middle East until Iran is forcefully dealt with!

Now for the question.

Do you know where Obama's chief of staff is from or who she is?

Valerie Jarrett.  Wasn't her father a college professor in Iran?

Seems like Obama & Kerry have switched sides and are helping Iran.  Incredible, isn't it?

Regrettably, the intelligentsia in postmodern America believe that there is no such thing as evil; just different points of view, and people who are, well, merely misunderstood.

As long as our country is in the grip of this milquetoast attitude, it will be exceedingly difficult to defeat evil--or even to confront it meaningfully.

Sadly, you are correct about this.

And even if the next administration is a Republican one--and, more importantly, a conservative one--it will not take effect for another 29 months; in which time, ISIS (or whatever it is calling itself nowadays), Boko Haram, and other terrorist groups will have continued to advance, while President Obama soothingly assures us that "core" al-Qaeda has been utterly devastated...

James Foley Went Looking to Support Terrorists in Syria, Instead They Cut Off His Head

Posted By Daniel Greenfield On August 19, 2014 @ 10:27 pm In The Point | 116 Comments




James Foley was one of a new breed of activists calling themselves journalists. He didn’t travel to report on a story, but to promote an agenda. And the agenda was obvious from his Twitter feed.

Any human life lost is tragic, but a moral individual would have much more empathy for the Syrian Christians who suffered at the hands of Foley’s favorite Jihadists than one of their pet propagandists.

Foley came to Syria to support the Sunni Islamist rebels against the Syrian government.

He cheered on the Sunni Muslim terrorists fighting to ethnically cleanse the Christians of Aleppo. In the conflict between Israel and Hamas, his tweets and retweets were chock full of pro-terrorist propaganda.

But Foley ran afoul of at least some of the Sunni Jihadists in Syria. His twitter feed was filled with references to the FSA. And the FSA was going to be eclipsed by the Al Qaeda affiliates. And that was where he ended up.

When Austin Tice, an actual freelance journalist was kidnapped by Jihadists, Foley ridiculed the idea that Jihadists had kidnapped him. Surely Syrian Jihadists wouldn’t do that sort of thing.

Except they did.

When Newsweek’s Muslim Rage cover story came out, Foley mocked it too. Raging Muslims. How silly and Islamophobic.

Foley was fanatically anti-Israel and was even willing to echo Iranian propaganda.



So the wrong term. He also had strong thoughts on Romney.





It turned out that he didn’t have to worry about gun violence after all.

The problem is NOT Iran.  The problem is the United States.  The political "leadership" and the population at large.
When more people vote for who's got talent, than for President, that is a problem.  When groups vote against their best interests, Jews, that is a problem.  When more people are not concerned enough to stop subsidizing bad behavior, that is the problem.
This is Rome.  Hitch up you toga.

Yep! And exactly why Iran has not been, and likely will not be, dealt with before it is to late..

Yes, you have to fight this on the psychological-level... unless you just want to keep killing till there's nobody left.

Those are the only two options, IMO (other than being defeated)...

Wow.  I wonder if he backed off that 'Islamophobic' stuff while he was in captivity?

How sad it is that he is dead, most likely because he was deluded.

I hope others learn from it.

If they want to act like they still live in the First Century, I say we accommodate them. Why should we wait for the enemy to strike first with an EMP? And that would be just ACT I.
