ISIS claims to have beheaded American journalist James Foley

Share:

James FoleyJames Foley, an American journalist who went missing in Syria more than a year ago, has reportedly been killed by the Islamic State, a militant group formerly known as ISIS.

A YouTube video and photos purportedly of Foley emerged on Tuesday. The video — entitled “A Message to #America (from the #IslamicState)” — identified a man on his knees as “James Wright Foley,” and showed his beheading.

Foley’s mother Diane confirmed his death on the ‘Free James Foley’ Facebook page:

“We have never been prouder of our son Jim. He gave his life trying to expose the world to the suffering of the Syrian people. We implore the kidnappers to spare the lives of the remaining hostages. Like Jim, they are innocents. They have no control over American government policy in Iraq, Syria or anywhere in the world. We thank Jim for all the joy he gave us. He was an extraordinary son, brother, journalist and person. Please respect our privacy in the days ahead as we mourn and cherish Jim.”

“This is James Wright Foley, an American citizen of your country,” an Islamic State militant says in the video, which has since been removed by YouTube. “As a government, you have been at the forefront of the aggression towards the Islamic State. You have plotted against us and have gone far out of your way to find reasons to interfere in our affairs. Today, your military air force is attacking us daily in Iraq, your strikes have caused casualties among Muslims.”

The video also shows another man on his knees who is identified as American journalist Steven Sotloff. The Islamic State member says that Sotloff’s future “depends” on President Obama’s “next decision.” Sotloff, a freelance journalist,went missing in Syria in August 2013.

Foley was in Syria covering the country’s civil war when he went missing in November 2012. A May 2013 report from the Columbia Journalism Review said that he was likely being held near Damascus.

The National Security Council issued a statement about Foley’s apparent murder:

“We have seen a video that purports to be the murder of U.S. citizen James Foley by ISIL. The intelligence community is working as quickly as possible to determine its authenticity. If genuine, we are appalled by the brutal murder of an innocent American journalist and we express our deepest condolences to his family and friends. We will provide more information when it is available.”

    ISIS is heading the wrong way.
    There is no way they will get any sympathy from anyone if they continue in this manner.

            It’s not what they did to Syria, it’s what their doing for Syria, which is protecting the people who disagree with these terrorist and their views. Think of one thing Barabie, if Assad is toppled, what will become of Syria and the poor innocent people who live in it. You think these terrorist are going to protect them?

            Barabie, you seriously believe everything the media says. Do you realize how much crap was spun in the begging of this fake revolution. I not saying Assad is an angel, however what I am saying is not all is what it seems. The truth is nobody really knows what happened that day to this poor child. And most importantly, nobody knows who really did it. Except what the media feed us.

            How come when the media is reporting regarding Isis u believe it 100%?
            But when it relates to asshead or hezbsatan then suddenly one shouldn’t believe the media. Amazing the double standards.

            We need to stop having to compare atrocities, to justify the continuing cycle of repeated evil acts. What happened to Hamza was back in the early days before ISIS, and the perpetrators need to be brought to justice but im afraid that process will be left in Gods hands. In the meantime sunnis, shias, kurds, assyrians, christians are allowing the zionists to take advantage of the situation.

            Well, since the ‘First Country’ of Hezzy is Iran, maybe you could read something about the Lebanese, who didn’t ‘ask’ Syria to do anything but leave. Of course, they didn’t. Syria even made sure the border stayed open and undefended.
            How sweet of them. And look where that has gotten everyone.

            Read Ghassan’s article on the electric problems. Nice that you have a ‘job’ so you can pay the bill … and actually do.

            Correction: Fatso is not Lebanese but Yemenite/Iranian.
            Btw, Ghassan is an Iranian who claims to be an Atheist, know that from Jazeera days. Had some good debates. Don’t know why he is not exposing Iran and all the Crypto Ayatullahs on here like he used to do there?
            I agree on the Electricity crisis and how Hezbushaytan has been abusing Lebanon since its ugly evil inception, electricity and nonpayment of bills is nothing compared to their attrocities during the civil war and the corruption, wars, etc. brought by them. Lebanon and its people have been paying for their sins ever since.
            Yet its another way Hizbullah defrauds Lebanon. The leeches don’t pay their bills and stop any attempt at privatization. The corruption is definitely disgusting but so are the people who steal from Lebanon EVERY DAY. The bill collectors are scared for their lives to even go and ask for the payment.
            Their allegiance has always been to the Masonic State of Iran and always will and never was to Lebanon and never will!!!

            ZJSO – In Earlier times here, Ghassan was more conversive. None of us thought this would happen, and then surely not drag out so long. It becomes wearying looking for ‘solutions’ that are forever resisted. What else can I say??

            I Need their permission to ‘name’ … lovely idea in a ‘western mind’ the ‘GoFund’ but the story should be verifiable … BUT …they FEAR either me or them making a squeak by this time … The last 5 years have been ‘Hell’.
            Even me punting money has brought ‘trouble’ – twice. ($ tracking ….)
            Small bit of ‘the story’ …

            3 Christian women – who couldn’t leave a baby lying on the sidewalk 5 years ago – with 2 older brain-sick mothers – struggle with no ‘usaid’ because they are Lebanese; no internal help because the church is broke; and no ‘compensation’ for demolished homes because they are #1 women, and #2 Christian. I’m going to write a book one day … It could be three.
            They have either the worst luck, or live in the worst locations … 🙁
            One tried to sell … got a ‘song and dance story’ she believed … and has been paid nothing in three years by the Syrian who moved into her place.
            One was shot last year … saved … they have been burned out, and now blown/burned out of 2 homes … managed to save the phone and I.D.’s because I told them to keep important stuff close. Didn’t get even the shoes this time.
            Add another, #4, who took them in off the street after 2 days … a sick lady … kind of cramped quarters now.

            Frankly, I too FEAR opening them to any more scrutiny. Im fine with the concept … I just don’t think it is possible. And maybe not safe.
            Refugees in their own land.

            By this time everyone here thinks I’m the nut for attempting.
            They won’t give their address now … and I have some clothes I could send … but … it’s a fear factor. Horrible … 180-degree shift in their lives since I was with them there, and ‘life’ was good.

            “to the rescue”, lol.

            I just think its absurd that 5th thinks only the Shi’ite don’t pay their electricity bill. Lebanon is full of crooks and scam artist from all walks of life.
            Where did you grow up in Lebanon Barabie?
            I grew up in a Sunni village (98%) and they’re notorious for stealing electricity and Dish services. I’m sure they’re not the only community doing it either. However, 5th only likes to place the blame on the Shi’ite of Lebanon. So, I call him out when he does. Not the first time and probably not the last time.

            My beloved are Lebanese. I don’t care if they’re Sunni, Shi’ite, Catholic, Greek Orthodox, Maronite, Druze, or Jews. I’ve been seeing you coming to the rescue of ISIS lately. Are they your beloved?

            You know if I just said ‘All Muslims Don’t Pay’, then everyone would be upset with the godless drunk. 😉 But of course, you are correct.
            Everyone ‘gets away with it’ if they can. ‘If that guy can do it, why not me?’, being the MANTRA of the Pea-brains.
            The reality is that that the whole ‘system’ is screwy, gets ripped off, never gets better, and a government can’t be formed to actually perform FOR the country.
            I might as well dump on the 10% who keep trying to tell everyone else it’s good to ‘resist’ everything. TAG, You’re ‘it’.

            Am I a liar?

            “Would u agree with him if it was ur beloved terrorists the hezbsatan that were being attacked?” , this was a reply to farq2 when he was agreeing with Lebo about destroying ISIS. Was it you swooping to the rescue/defense of ISIS?

            “Farq, you seriously believe everything the media says. Do you realize how much crap was spun in the begging of this fake Isis. I not saying Isis is an angel, however what I am saying is not all is what it seems. The truth is nobody really knows what happened that day to this poor man. And most importantly, nobody knows who really did it. Except what the media feed us.”, another example of you swooping in for the rescue/defense. I know you were just being a smart ass here, but you just subbed in ISIS for what he had in their place.

            Last I checked Coogee isn’t in Lebanon. So, remind me again what you know about electricity theft in Lebanon.

            Really Farq … 5th & Co? … and yes, I know it isn’t often Hezzy in Tripoli … unless they want some KFC, maybe … 😉 I know it’s stupid Sunnis VS stupid Alawites – and there the Alawites have the ‘high ground’ – good perhaps only because they are a ‘minority’ and have been defending it for years.
            WHY the idiots moved in across the street from each other is beyond me – although I put that down to some of their ‘religious defenders’ doing the usual ‘GET IN THEIR FACES’ routine. You know … pump the chest and pound on it … spread the fear, and idiocy … make sure everyone appears ‘correct’ at all times – at least when in ‘their hood’.
            And kids run past the doors of the ‘Cyber-Cafe’ after shooting it up somewhere, and no-one lifts their head from the screens to watch although all heard, in case they think anyone actually is looking and decide to pot at the cafe. Nose down … mind your own business … might be lucky again.
            ‘Oh wow … it’s Ramadan. Time to ‘celebrate’ … but only at night.
            Man and woman holding hands walking along the shore? OHHHH. Horrible. Someone will question if you are married … which is really no-one’s Sunni-Day business. Go for ride on a boat, and in 10 minutes one of the younger ladies is asked if she wants to marry the boat-driver, because he wore out the first wife with 10 kids … he needs ‘more’.
            She knows, as an experienced Christian, she needs to be ‘firm’ in answering – although he says she can ‘switch’ for him. He will buy a nice dress for the wedding. His 17-yr-old son smiles in anticipation – but our ‘males’ outnumber them. ‘Oh well’ … he tried. ‘No offence’.
            Driving is a case of .. ‘Camera Ok here’ … ‘Put camera down here’ … tourism.
            One definitely needs a good guide. ‘Tourist’ isn’t nervous, knows he has the experienced guide … a lifetime of being ‘adjusted’. The friends don’t even realize they function in rather irrational ways … it’s automatic.
            But a trip to another town is better for a full dinner with wine – it’s a different Muslim Sect there, and they serve what is wanted even if they don’t drink it. Seems ‘reasonable’. At least, accommodating.
            The friend in Beirut says about Tripoli; ‘Be careful, it’s a different country’.
            THAT is a few months after her street was torn up, blocked, and shooting occurred with the pumping chests of you-know-who … ‘resisting’ TOO.
            A trip to the ancient city of Tyre … done carefully, guided by one experienced in THAT zone … and the right amount of money gets one a pass.
            The ‘occasional tourist’ happy for the experience can leave shaking his head at the whole ‘scene’ and loves the place and the people he knows, but sees how screwed up the whole country is.
            I’ll give you an equal share in the blame. How’s that?? They are all nuts.
            And Assad leads the show.

There are many areas like this across the country. As much as you and others may like this problem to fall solely on the Shi’ite communities shoulders its much more widespread than that.

            Let me get this straight. You’re okay with Syrian rebels hiding among civilian populations, but not Palestinians. Its okay for them to fire weapons from densely populated centers, but not the Palestinians. It’s okay for Israel to retaliate in self defense, but not the Syrian Army. I think I got it, thanks.

            It’s natural for a group thats outgunned to pursue a guerilla strategy. Buildings make for nice cover. Its hit and run tactics. Its what the Syrian rebels do and what the Palestinians do. They can’t fight a conventional war, they would be destroyed quickly. You should read “The Art of War”

        I will also put them in the same category . Terrorists are terrorists regardless of their origin, color or religion. Hezbollah and the Syrian regime are no different . Some kill with chemicals , some with bombs and some with beheading . They all have the blood of innocents on their hands .
        You have been all along defending the Syrian regime and Hezbollah and for this reason you cannot be objective when it comes to such a discussion. I feel sorry for you. Try to free yourself if you can !!!

          He and many others are shackled from day one to the ideologies of their popular leaders. If the shoe was on the other foot they would still be following some other form of tyranny. I think there are some seriously dark days ahead.

          Dude arzatna, you must be smokin something good my man You can’t be serious comparing HA to these ISIS criminals. HA never executed innocent people from any sect. They were created to liberated the land of Arzitna and they did. They defended the land of Arzitna from the terrorists that invaded Syria who were on their way to the land of Arzitna. They went outside Lebanon to fight the terrorists so the land of Arzitna stays peaceful. Now you’re either dumb or acting dumb if you still think they are terrorist.

          This particular beheading was done by a terrorist with a British accent. Britain is in trouble when these terrorist decide to go back home to their despised western homes. They are saying that they are the most violent/barbaric jihadist fighting for IS.

            I don’t think their religion teaches them this, but it helps them feel justified in their actions. Religion can be a powerful tool for good or evil. It’s the brainwashed followers that choose how to use that tool.

      Farq, you seriously believe everything the media says. Do you realize how much crap was spun in the begging of this fake Isis. I not saying Isis is an angel, however what I am saying is not all is what it seems. The truth is nobody really knows what happened that day to this poor man. And most importantly, nobody knows who really did it. Except what the media feed us.

        ‘Way Back Then’, there was still ‘media’ in the country … took Assad a little while to chase them all out. Some documented furiously … 30 years from now when the cement dust finally settles, the ‘secret files’ will be revealed. 😉
        Maybe from the ‘Caliph’s’ dusty archives … 😉
        I won’t be around … but maybe you can still point things out to Farq2 then. :-)))

            I watched it. It’s actually a very suspicious video. I’ve seen these types of videos before, but this one is very different. It seems very rehearsed. Borderline fake. James Foley is very calm and delivers his speech as directed, with very little emotion. He remains very stoic throughout. Wearing an orange jumpsuit (?). Usually when terrorist make these videos they have a small group in the background with AK’s and the black flag of death. Only one guy in this video and no flag. The video actually doesn’t even show a beheading. Which is also unusual, they almost always show the complete act. The terrorist has what looks like a butter knife, he pulls James head up and covers his mouth. Then he proceeds to make around 7-10 sawing motions, but you don’t see any blood or cut marks. The video fades to black and then comes back with the deed already done. The head on top of the body.

            Maybe they censored themselves in hopes it will get more mainstream media time. Just weird and unlike them. The conspiracy theorist in me thinks it may be staged to rile up Americans emotions to support action in Iraq. Nobody will know the truth.

            After all the beheading videos in the past, this one is being censored the most. I even heard in the UK their trying to make it illegal to search for and view the video. Even sites like LiveLeak is trying to ban it. Fishy, because this is the least graphic/gruesome beheading video ever posted on the internet.

      When the brainwashing is complete, the only answer will be just to eliminate them all.
      The brainwashing of children goes on in such a way that there will be little recourse but a full-blown war, and that is really what they want anyway. Sooner would be better.

        Did you watch it? Those kids have no clue what they are supporting. One scene has a kid preaching about splitting America in half and then he forgets what the next word was supposed to be, but you can hear a “teacher” off camera remind him of the next line.

          It’s called ‘Learning by Rote’ … repetition. They used to do it for the mathematics ‘times-tables’ … repeat it enough and 2X2=4 is remembered.
          But if you had been forced to say it was 5, and you’d be beaten or killed for saying 4, even if it didn’t make sense, you would learn that way forever.
          You can see the adults trying desperately to remember something they are not quite used to saying … the worried looks and ingratiating smiles in hopes of being ‘correct’ and praised instead of shot tells the story.

I used to blame every one else syrian jew etc etc. But I blame the people because you allow this to perpetuate.
