New Isis Video Purports to Show Beheading of Another US Journalist
CBS DC ^ | September 2, 2014 | CBS

Posted on 09/02/2014 2:29:38 PM PDT by yldstrk

Islamic State extremists released a video Tuesday purportedly showing the beheading of a second American journalist, Steven Sotloff, and warning President Barack Obama that as long as U.S. airstrikes against the militant group continue, “our knife will continue to strike the necks of your people.”

The footage — depicting what the U.S. said appeared to be a sickening act of brutality — was posted two weeks after the release of video showing the killing of James Foley and days after Sotloff’s mother pleaded for his life.

Barak Barfi, a spokesman for the Sotloff family, said that the family had seen the video but that authorities have not established its authenticity.

“The family knows of this horrific tragedy and is grieving privately. There will be no public comment from the family during this difficult time,” Barfi said.

Why are we standing around doing nothing? We are the United States of America. We took Iraq, an oranized state in less than two weeks. How long would it take us to crush these clowns if we had a real president like Reagan? We are standing by and watching them make fools of us just because we have a president who said ‘I ended the Iraq’ and doesn’t want to admit he made a mistake. I wish we had a man at the helm!

“We took Iraq, an oranized state in less than two weeks.”

It would probably be more accurate to say we invaded Iraq, toppled its government, set up an unsuccessful puppet state, then left when casualties soared.

Iraq was just another loss against Islam; Afghanistan will soon be another (if it isn’t already).

Ralph Peters was just on Fox, he said nothing will be done, at least not right away. He said Cameron has the will but not the power. He said Obama, or as his supporters here in Texas call him BAHAMA, has the power but not the will.

Doug Shoen was just on, big time LIBERAL, said as soon as Obama heard about the 2nd beheading he should have announced, BOMBERS ARE ON THEIR WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But as a muslim president.... he just plays golf.
