ISIS video appears to show beheading of US reporter Steven Sotloff

Here's a slip.

Suck it.

I've seen stills of ISIS beheadings, they're definitely real and do exist, and they're gruesome and shocking.

When the Foley video came out a couple weeks ago I made myself analyze the video to see if the rumors about 'fakery' were true. I zoomed in on stills, inverted colorization, bumped all thresholds to maximum, colorized every image to see any deviation. After 6 'slacks' of the knife there was no blood and no cut. Nothing.

I even took a still of a restored image just before the fade to black and there was nothing. The Foley video was NOT a 'beheading" video.

And now people are saying that THIS video was produced in the same manner, with no blood.

I believe ISIS needs to be defeated. But if we're going to base our rage off of videos, can we at least verify that the videos are what they are being PURPORTED to be? Why are we as Americans so duped into war at every turn? Are we so ready to go kick some *** that we forget people LIE? That Government and media CAN and DO consort to enlist propaganda for a reaction?

Have we lost all skepticism?

Thanks you! Exactly what I'm saying.

Holy crap!! I haven't seen this before. So who the hell is this "security team", and what else have they recommended? This is how these evil lunatics in the US government think. They wanted to arm ISIS to help take out Assad. This is disgusting. The American gov is responsible for most of the bad that is going on in the world. I have no doubts about it. And they get their little friends in Israel and Saudi Arabia to help when needed. Thanks for sharing this vid.

This is a gem. But there is plenty of evidence out there for the naysayers on this thread to realize this is manufactured chaos.

Toppling Syria is on the list along with Iraq, Libya, Egypt, and Iran. They failed at Syria with ISIS so now they are changing the plan to drum up American support for a new military intervention to finally oust Assad.

They hoped their congressional allocation of 500 million to ISIS could do the job but it failed. Now they are looking to convince the public to allow boots on the ground to take Assad out once and for all.

Then... Iran is next.

all of them are cowards, how do we know this? they are so afraid of our capabilities to locate a single person, in the world, that they need to wear a mask and hide their identity. man up boys and show us your face.

today's software can and will identify the person in the video, he will get a hellfire missle rammed up where the sun don't shine. in very short order

I think your confusing cowards to being smart.

No one can fight are war toe to toe with the west. So our enemies will use every trick in the book to win.


They may be evil skid marks on the pants of humanity but they are not cowards. Dont underestimate our enemy.

And, the point McCain is trying to make is Obamas hand picked group of bafoons wanted to arm ISIS and Obama had the common sense for once to say no. That's exactly what he's saying. Then, they let ISIS run rampant and gain power. Why don't you post the entire video instead of cherry pick your little pieces and add context to sway people in your favor.

Here's a quote from another thread. These are the people you can blame for creating this monstrosity called ISIS:

You're absolutely right. I wouldn't trust those Muslims going over there as far as I could throw one. If they go over there, they stay.

So restrict freedom for security?

Get rid of inocent until proven guilty?


Basicaly you want to go against the fundemental part of being free? Just to save the security services some work?


Sorry but usa spends 10 of billions on its NSA and my own UK spends billions too on security, Id bloody well hope and expect they can use those vast resources to seperate the genuine travelers from the scum.

Wow. So many here buy into this completely, calling for war and the like. Have you guys seen the video? It's ludicrous to believe it's legit. This is just cheap pro-war propaganda. Please consider before throwing your support behind yet another folly invasion.

You know since all this ISIS stuff has hit the news, complete with double sensationalist beheadings (strange how there is so much attention all of a sudden), Israel has announced a ceasefire with Palestine (prob to get rid of the global attention/criticism) and proceeded to take more land for settlements. They have also continued arresting more Palestinians with no charges and seem to be carrying on their illegal and racist actions like before.

There is also the conflict escalating in Ukraine.

I've always considered media distraction stories as a possibility, but of course the problem is, what are they distracting from?

Additionally, Dutch Investigators for MH-17 expect some info to be released in the next week but also stressed a full investigation will take a year, I find that very strange also considering all the talk just after it happened.

The ISIS story for me just seems kind of contrived as if it is being thrown at us.


EDIT: And it's reassuring to know I'm not the only one who thinks there's something suspicious about these ISIS presentations

I also forgot to mention the matter of Scotlands Independence and with Sky News having "ISIS Homegrown Terrorist Threat" flashed all over their headlines page, normally it wouldn't mean much but when you consider what's at stake for the U.K. and how close the polls seem to indicate, it could mean a lot, or am I just being overly cynical?

What you fail to realize is that no president is truly in charge of any of this. All those generals were in power before Obama arrived. FBI, NSA, CIA, doj, HLS, all were in power before Obama. Just like jfk was tricked into the bay of pigs and when he found out he made the speech about the dark force in Washington that was really in charge and his plan was to expose them.

10 days later he's murdered.

I understand, you're one of the people that thinks each president moves into the White House and completely takes over all geopolitical policy, domestic policy, and financial decisions. There is a reason every president since jfk campaigned on the platform of change... Yet nothing ever changes.

Believe what you want. Me hope you're young enough to realize you were wrong when 50 years goes by and the lies are revealed.

Ron Paul already went on record saying us government knew the 9/11 attacks were coming and they allowed it. I bet you were one of the people that believed the official version completely.

There's no arguing with people like you, because you want to believe what you believe. That's the hardest to change the mind of. I never wanted to believe our government were deceitful. I learned that they were.

Ask yourself what you knew of Middle East conflict outside of Israel and Palestine before bush sr invaded Iraq.

This is either manufactured chaos or the worst continued foreign policy in the history of earth.

Too bad the mountain of evidence points to the former.

It is true, these people are without doubt completely lost in the quagmire of lies, and they do NOT want to try and get out of it.

It just hurts too much, hell I remember when I FULLY realized the scope of the deceptions going on, I was a wreck for weeks, but these people are in even worse denial than that.

Trust me, Revelation is what they are running from, as fast as they can..........But it is hunting them down NOW.

the videos look very sketchy and staged .. but I'm gonna need a little more convincing on the images of the beheaded bodies .. they look pretty real .. that would be a heck of a prop/makeup job

I would say GIP operatives everywhere.

Yup, Governments have done bad things since pretty much they were formed.

Not sure what that has to do with the fact that their are bad/horrible/evil people/groups in the world that operate without Govt involvement.

Here is a thread I just completed to help some of the blind see.

they've gotta be destroyed, these are barbaric people with no regard for human life. where are the good islamists to denounce them in the region?

Many Muslim groups have been battling ISIS for sometime, The Kurds for example.

Still I agree ISIS needs to disappear and fast.

-SAP-

what we need is the governments in that region to universally denounce them, along with all the religious leaders. How in this day and age, is a group like this able to wield so much power? The world as a whole has to act

I don't think I'm allowed to link the website here, but type in: fake Hollywood heads and you will see how life-like they make them now. The US gov has used Hollywood before....
