Masked man with AMERICAN accent appears in latest ISIS propaganda film 'Flames of War'

The latest suspected ISIS propaganda film has been uploaded to YouTube and appears to feature a jihadist with an American accent.

The 55-minute 'Flames of War' video was posted online today and bears hallmarks of previous Islamic State tapes including Hollywood-style effects and bloodthirsty, call-to-arms language.

The clip bears the stamp of the al-Hayat Media Centre, ISIS' English-language propaganda arm.

An ISIS jihadist spoke with an American accent on the Flames of War propaganda film which was uploaded to YouTube today. In the video, the masked extremist stands before Syrian soldiers, loyal to dictator Bashar al-Assad who are digging their own shallow grave outside the city of Raqqa

male voice in well-spoken English with a non-specific American accent provides the voice-over, using dialogue seemingly hijacked from a blockbuster action film.

He says: 'In the face of the dark wave of the crusader force, the historical land of two rivers bore life to a mission that would transform the political landscape of the world.'

Almost an hour follows of battle scenes where militants wield rocket launchers, the footage manipulated with special effects. Piles of bloodied corpses are spliced with speeches by President Obama and former president George W Bush.

The tape builds to shaky camera footage of the extremists' raid on the 17th Division air force base in Raqqa, Syria under the cover of darkness.

In the final minutes of the tape, a masked jihadist in desert fatigues, speaks directly to camera in a different American accent to the man who provided the voice-over.

Ever notice that there is something about his eyes. He looks stoned.

As a rule & phonetically, australian and new zealand accents are much more difficult to imitate than ‘standard’ american or even canadian. I say ‘standard’ because southern accent in the US, for example, is again harder to imitate than ‘standard’.
