I dont think its authentic
no blood when slicing the throat
2 videos in a row with the video cut at that point
I just dont believe it
and yes, I watch a lot of them, we need to, this is reality and it is what is coming to America
It’s likely they were already dead and that would account for the lack of blood. Many years ago, I saw the execution of Eugene Armstrong. He was very much alive and it was beyond gruesome.
By saying that the video is authentic, it could only mean that it wasn’t toyed with. Doesn’t mean that it wasn’t staged.
They found that showing the actual beheading was counter-productive (with the killing that followed the Pearl killing, IIRC). It usually takes more than one person to do it, with several jihadis being required to hold the victim down, and is quite messy, even if much of the blood drains off into the ground or is sprayed all over the killers. Also, they often don’t manage to saw it off on the first try.
This was bad publicity even for them and also made them look weak and kind of like a gang of thugs, which is what they are, of course. So since that time, they have not been showing the actual killing, but just the one triumphant jihadi forcing the victim to make a statement and then holding up his head.
I didn’t watch it, but you said there was no blood! Very odd with throat slashings of anything, to not have a lot of blood.
