ISIL Beheads American Photojournalist in Iraq

A video posted by ISIL terrorists in Iraq purports to the show the beheading of an American photojournalist who has been missing since 2012. The group claims the beheading is a message to President Obama to end the American intervention in Iraq.

James Foley is a photojournalist who has worked for several news organizations. According to a website set up in his honor, he went missing while covering the conflict in Syria in 2012.

In the video, they show journalist Steven Joel Soltoff, a journalist who worked for TIME, The National Interest and Media Line. Soltoff seems to have been missing since the middle of last year. He last tweeted on August 3rd, 2013. His Twitter indicates he was in Libya at that time. ISIL claims the Sotloff’s life “depends on Obama’s next decision," specifically if the United States continues attacking their them.

I wonder to whom she is referring in her song. It sure sounds like she’s totally ticked off for someone doing something horrible to someone she loves.

Kill an American, and we kill 10,000 IS.

I don’t think she’s referring to an individual; she’s referring to a group of people.

A group of people who froze millions of stories into the mud.

I would think it’s fairly obvious.

“Video removed”.

Apparently Youtube doesn’t want to sully the image of the headhackers.

On ABC evening news, I was surprised to hear them use words like “barbarians” and “savages”. To think these are the same people that were being hailed as brave freedom fighters struggling to overcome the brutal dictator Assad.

Journalists are supposed to be in the business of collecting facts. It's a nice surprise to see that some are actually capable of recognizing a fact given evidence in a sufficiently shocking form.
