US, UK eye rapper as British-born militant who beheaded journalist James Foley
FOX NEWS ^ | 08/25/2014

American and British intelligence officials are eyeing a British-born rapper as the militant who beheaded journalist James Foley.

A senior Western intelligence official told Fox News that 23-year-old London rapper Abdel Majed Abdel Bary is the suspect believed to be Foley's executioner.

U.S. intelligence officials are not commenting publicly on the reports, but a well-placed source told Fox News that Bary's Egyptian-born father was extradited from London to the United States in 2012 for his alleged connection to Usama bin Laden and the 1998 U.S. Embassy bombings in Africa.

Bary traveled to Syria last year to fight with ISIS, the source said.

The Sunday Times and Sunday People identified Bary as a member of a group of at least three British-born ISIS fighters known among former hostages as "The Beatles."

The Sunday Times reported that MI5 and MI6, Britain's two major intelligence agencies, had identified the man who did the brutal deed, though he had not been publicly identified.

The punk is dead meat.

We might have to wait a couple of years until the Golfer is out of office, but he'll eventually be a greasy smear somewhere in northwestern Iraq.

Even if he were captured by British authorities his squishy-soft punishment would not fit the crime.

It’s long overdue for the ‘culture’ to start recognizing that ‘hip hop’ and ‘rap’ music attracts thugs, criminals and now terrorists.

All those nice white suburban parents that tolerate their kids glorifying this trash should be very concerned that their little angel is on the right track.

Obama is showing his natural tendency to micro-manage by pursuing an investigation of one ISIS killer, and ignoring the ISIS organization to which the killer performed the orders of the ISIS organization.

The ISIS killer was just doing his job, similar to the Japanese pilot who dropped the first bomb on Pearl Harbor in 1941.

BTW, did FDR ever use Hoover’s FBI to hold that pilot accountable?

To this administration proper punishment would probably be to bring him to Detroit and have him smacked-down in a rap battle with Eminem.

The two killers of Lee Rigby got whole life tariffs.

Other British muslim terrorists have been put away for a long time, sentences of 25-40 years.

Seems to me that if you barbarically cut a man’s head off, it should be grounds for only one penalty.

If a nation can’t man up and inflict that penalty, then it’s not much of a nation. You have to respect people’s right to life a bit better than that IMO.

You take a life, especially in that manner, and your forfeit your own.

I support the death penalty. I don’t see it coming back though.
