"Jim was taken from us in an act of violence that shocks the conscience of the entire world," he continued. "He was 40 years old - one of five siblings, the son of a mom and dad who worked tirelessly for his release. Earlier today, I spoke to the Foleys and told them that we are all heartbroken..."
Obama then turned to the subject of IS itself. Over the past day, the terror group threatened to not only 'drown Americans in blood,' but also to kill another journalist, Steven Sotloff.
The Sunni Muslim group follows Al-Qaeda's hard-line ideology, but is not affiliated with Al-Qaeda which has renounced ISIS.
It seeks to re-create a medieval-style caliphate erasing borders from the Mediterranean to the Gulf. It deems Shiite Muslims to be heretics deserving death and has committed genocide against a number of ethnic minorities in Syria and Iraq, including Bedouin and ethnic Yazidi.
"Jim Foleys life stands in stark contrast to his killers," the President said. "Lets be clear about ISIS. They have rampaged across cities and villages - killing innocent, unarmed civilians in cowardly acts of violence."
"They abduct women and children, and subject them to torture and rape and slavery. They have murdered Muslims - both Sunni and Shia - by the thousands," he continued. "They target Christians and religious minorities, driving them from their homes, murdering them when they can for no other reason than they practice a different religion. They declared their ambition to commit genocide against an ancient people."
"ISIS speaks for no religion," Obama insisted. "Their victims are overwhelmingly Muslim, and no faith teaches people to massacre innocents. No just God would stand for what they did yesterday, and for what they do every single day."

I threw a few bombing sorties at them when they were just slaughtering Christians, but mostly ignored it. Now they've really scorched my shorts by beheading a journalist, one that liked me. There are so few that truly do appreciate my brilliance. But even so, I'm not going to do more than get angry over a beheading video. Those things are so last decade. While I'm acting angry about that, I'll list all the other things that ISIS does that make people mad, and act mad about those, too. Then I'll do nothing as always.
And then he was heard to say....”FORE!!”
I don’t hold much to anyone who after making a 5 minute statement about one of our fellow American getting their head sawed off, and then going directly back to the golf course.
“They target Christians”
They have a lot in common with you then, Mr. Usurper.
Obama tries , but he does not have a Clue
The Koran, of course, does teach Muslims to murder innocents.
Says the empty vessel who watched one of our citizens get his head sawed off then went to play golf.
What the Hell kind of man does this.
This man is sh!t.
Obama is a Moslem, no more and no less. He is acting as his religion requires him to act.
Hmmmm....the Syrian “rebels” were holding these hostages for years and the US was still training, arming and financing them. Shouldn’t that have been a clue?
He certainly does have a Clue. He is simply not on our side. He is not an American, whatever his actual or claimed citizenship. He is a MOSLEM. Non Moslem people have no value to him except as they can be used temporarily to advance the Moslem project, Jihad.
Did you notice that when he mentioned those murdered by ISIS, he mention the Muslims first, the Christians were mentioned last.
So says the mutt that voted to withhold medical assistance to babies born alive from an abortion.
Is he describing ISIS or the Democratic Party?
Yes, I’m feeling very reassured to know how angry he is, that’s for sure! He’s a very angry scary guy!!
You can tell just by looking at him. He wants OUT!
And then he said, “.... They declared their ambition to commit genocide against an ancient people.”
What? Eskimos? Gypsies? Kurds? Armenians? Which ancient people could he possibly be talking about?!
Clearly, the reference is to the Yazidis (Zoroastrians).
He wouldn't care all that much about the Chaldean Christians...
Shut up and turn it over to the military, shitbird.
Excuse me, Mr. Golf Boy. Here's the instruction from their "faith" right here: Fight and kill the disbelievers wherever you find them, take them captive, harass them, lie in wait and ambush them using every stratagem of war. (Koran 9:5)
Do you want to reword what you just said??
NO soul or sincerity involved.
