- ISIS fighter in new beheading video
A new beheading video from ISIS included this direct threat against President Obama. This is also one of three new warnings from ISIS, including pledges to kill Jordanian and Japanese hostages if a hostage held by Jordan is not freed.
These men also had warnings for 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.”
"Any more delays by the Jordanian government will mean [that] they are responsible for the death of their pilot, which then will be followed by mine [i.e. my death],” says a voice believed to be that of Kenji Goto Jogo, one of two Japanese hostages shown in a video released a week ago, along with a demand for $200 million from Japan. "I only have 24 hours left to live, and the pilot has even less. Please don't leave us to die."
The White House, apparently, didn't respond immediately to requests for comment about the new threats, including the one specifically directed at President Obama.
In that video, the Islamic State fighters also single out Masoud Barzani, the president of the Kurdish-controlled portion of Iraq.
“But as for you, oh Masoud, you dog, we are going to behead you and throw you into the trash bin of history,” he shouted during the video, while waving his fist in the air. “Know that we are men who fear no one. We will institute the laws of Allah, may He be exalted and praised.”
He then issued another warning, saying that for every missile launched by Kurdish forces, that they would behead one of their soldiers before slitting the throat of the Kurd fighter as people gathered to watch the incident on a public street.
This is so frightening! I hope this ends soon. What do you think Obama's response will be?
ReplyDeleteISIS is a very scary group; definitely makes me worried about anything international. What do you think America will do in response to this?
ReplyDeleteHow do you think this situation will end? Could it be a happy ending?
ReplyDeleteI honestly believe that they are already here and just waiting for the right moment to attack. If Obama doesn't take action soon, we'll be a Muslim Province.
