ISIS threatens Obama, Japanese and Jordanian hostages in new online messages
Fox News ^ | 27 Jan 15 | Fox staff

Posted on 01/27/2015 10:13:51 AM PST by SkyPilot

A new, grisly beheading video from ISIS includes a direct threat against President Obama and is one of at least three new warnings from the terror organization, including pledges to kill Jordanian and Japanese hostages if a hostage held by Jordan is not freed.

In a new online video discovered by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) on Tuesday, three Islamic State fighters stand behind a kneeling Kurdish fighter as one of the extremists launches into a diatribe against the U.S. and other Western nations.

“Know, oh Obama, that will reach America,” says one of the fighters, clad in black and wearing a balaclava, in a translation from Arabic provided by MEMRI. “Know also that we will cut off your head in the White House, and transform America into a Muslim Province.”

The extremist also issued warnings to European nations.

“And this is my message to France and to its sister, Belgium,” he said. “We advise you that we will come to you with car bombs and explosive charges, and will cut off your heads.”

The video fades to black as one Islamic State fighter brings a knife up to the unidentified Kurdish fighter’s throat.

ISIS threatens Obama? That’s OK. We can find another POSOTUS just as bad.

I’m not sure whether they’re threatening Obama or seeking his approval.

Threatening to kill people won’t bother Obama one bit. Threatening to disrupt his tee time every week would get his attention though.

Apart from the cutting off of his head, I don’t see much that he would object to in the statement.

Come to the South, ISIS. Your dead bodies will be buried in a soup of pig innards and malt liquor.

They will meet with the same success in turning America into a Muslim province as HRH George III did in keeping his 13 colonies. Americans will not willingly kneel to subjugation by any King, Caliph, or other conqeror.

Saturation bombing would teach ISIS the error or their ways, but nobody in a position of power in the US has the intestinal fortitude to make it happen.

That would be true if ISIS planned to land on some American beach somewhere, D-Day style.

But that is not their plan. Terror attacks like the one in Boston, creeping Sharia law (disguised as laws against "hate"), and home-grown conversions...that's their plan.

You're overvaluing Barry, unless the bag of cheetos and the can of Coke can be empty.

Nope. We prefer homegrown tyrants and traitors.

My friend’s pet cat used to come to his door with a dead bird or some other trophy in its mouth, wouldn’t put it down until you lavished praise. For some reason, I was reminded of that.

How many people do you know who will willingly take part in a home grown conversion or submit to Sharia law? How many people do you know who may even know someone else who would do that?
I’ll bet Zero.
