American journalist and freelance photographer James Foley campaigned for Barack Obama. But when he was captured and held by ISIS, Obama was not there for him.
The Sunday Times reported in August that President Obama delayed a rescue mission for James Foley and the other prisoners for 30 days. Obama spent that time fretting over his image, playing golf and worrying his administration would be Carterized if the mission failed.
James Foley campaigned for the wrong candidate. The New York Times reported:
As the number of people in the 20-square-meter cell in Raqqa grew smaller, it was hard to stay hopeful. Yet Mr. Foley, who had campaigned for President Obama, continued to believe his government would come to his rescue, said his family, who learned this from recently freed hostages.
On May 27, the few remaining hostages were reminded that different passports spelled different fates
In an article recently published in an official Islamic State magazine, the jihadists described the American-led airstrikes that began in August as the nail in those hostages coffins.
At the same time, they laid out the role European and American ransom policies had played in their decision to kill Mr. Foley.
As the American government was dragging its feet, reluctant to save Jamess life, they wrote in the magazine, Dabiq, negotiations were made by the governments of a number of European prisoners, which resulted in the release of a dozen of their prisoners after the demands of the Islamic State were met.
What you get with liberals.
Elections have consequesnces
Galatians 6:7.
“My effeminate god-king will surely save me!” - liberal self delusion.
I had a dream: We were WORKING and obola was there on the intersection with his golf club putting a golf ball around.
I mimicked him mockingly with a crooked stick and a rock.
No sympathy for libscum or their families..NONE!
NO APOLOGIES!
But paying ransoms is what made the chechen scum able to afford more explosives.
Poetic justice.
Foley was just another "typical white person" expecting this, that and "please don't chop off my head"... Obama can only do so much. Presidenting is haaaaaaaard.....
There was no money in James Foley.
Unless there is money to be stolen, the Messiah has no interest
The Democrat party is a criminal enterprise
Obama was so moved he waited right minutes before he resumed his golf game.
right = eight
fecking “auto-correct”
He got what he voted for.
He chose poorly.
That should be on a bumper sticker somehow. When (if) something really catastrophic happens (which I hope not), I will probably say something similar to the sheeple who cry to me.
My version - “call your false keynan messiah”.
Chose stupidly too?
I guess he got what he wished for.
