Forensic Expert Says Foley Murder Video "May Have Been Staged"
While there have been many suggestions, some of very dubious nature others not so much, that the ISIS video showing the execution of James Foley may have been staged, faked or otherwise fabricated (especially after Scotland Yard warned that sharing or merely viewing the infamous YouTube clip of Foley's murder is a crime and is punishable under anti-terror laws, stunning virtually everyone), it wasn't until today that an actual forensic expert opined - apparently one who isn't afraid of the criminal charges headed their way - that something may be wrong with the 4 minute 40-second clip. The Telegraph reports that an "international forensic science company which has worked for police forces across Britain, suggested camera trickery and slick post-production techniques appear to have been used."
While the expert analysis does not deny that the video ends with the death of Foley, it alleges that the execution itself may have been staged, "with the actual murder taking place off-camera." In other words, the implication is that the British jihadist in the film may have been the frontman rather than the killer. Which also means that the manic scramble that has gripped the UK to identify "Jihadi John" may be one giant misdirection whose purpose is not quite clear.
The Telegraph continues:
A forensic analyst told The Times that no blood can be seen, even though the knife is drawn across the neck area at least six times.
“After enhancements, the knife can be seen to be drawn across the upper neck at least six times, with no blood evidence to the point the picture fades to black,” the analysis said.
Sounds allegedly made by Foley do not appear consistent with what may be expected.
During Foley’s speech, there appears to be a blip which could indicate the journalist had to repeat a line.
One expert commissioned to examine the footage was reported as saying: “I think it has been staged. My feeling is that the execution may have happened after the camera was stopped.”
However the company, which requested anonymity, did not reach a definitive answer.
Nonetheless, it concluded: “No one is disputing that at some point an execution occurred.”
Still, if even one part of the clip is questioned, it opens up a whole can of worms, with a plethora of questions suddenly demanding an answer: why the manic pursuit to prohibit dissemination and viewing of the video? After all, over a decade ago the beheading of Daniel Pearl by Al Qaeda also was available on the web, and there was no talk of criminal charges against anyone who shared the video, let alone merely viewed it. Also, why fake the execution scene, and what goal does ISIS really pursue with the release of the tape? Finally, if indeed the video was staged and "post-produced", who was directing, and why?
And then, if one proceeds along this path of asking questions, there many other, far more "conspiratorial" questions emerge if the coherent plotline behind the video as presented for public consumption, or rather the prohibition thereof, unravels. But we will leave those for another night.

What makes NO SENSE is ISIS antagonizing the ussa. This is the same error Al Queda made under OBL.
Before they can seriously inflict damage on the west they need to establish the caliphate.
Beheading an individual is symbolic. Only someone very stupid would bring bombs on themselves...
Hamas is using this technique to sway world opinion, using the people of Gaza as sacrificial lambs..while the attack israel
ISIS is showing how badass they are.... really.... The ussa can inflict 1000 times the death in 1/1000th the time...
They sweep through territory that essentially is sunni and already supportive of or indifferent to their presence.
During the process, to rally the troopps, they kill non muslims.. for the show, after all it's a holy war..
If they really felt secure in the territory they "took".. why did al baghdadi high tail it back to syria wehn the heat got turned up..
What command and control structure are they using... hello NSA... where are you when you could do some good....
pinpoint and execute... no need for ST6 or boots on the ground... death from above, nuch more terrifying. they asked the VC after the war what they feared the most and the answer was ROLLING THUNDER ... the B52 airstrikes... hint hint
Pinpoint and execute.... that will take the entusiasm right out of the jihadi, Napalm is a lovely tool also but no longer permited... we are oh so PC in how we kill these days... no moe ace of spades nailed to the forehead, no more genitals in the mouth, no mutilation.... what a shame... PC sanitized detached death....from above
esum
what makes no sense is morons like you buying into the lie after all these years of lies.
one has to conclude you area moron or a zionist who.
Perhaps Ironic?
TPTB overthrow Kadaffy, send weapons to destabilize Syria, the Fanatics get the weapons and the strongest, most vicious group takes over.
Meanwhile, TPTB are flipped out, as their little controlled army has morphed into the real thing and they cannot control it.
Backdoor Barry flits about because none of this was covered in the master plan they gave him.
It Is Out Of Control!
We may end up with a real terror-attack this time!
Muslims are like a hornet's nest. If you leave them alone, they do their thing. If you stir them up, there is always a Ma'adi who springs up and it's on like donkey kong. I have lived with these folks for a number of years. The damn western powers have always tried to manipulate the Islamic world, usually creating Another, worse crisis they then have to clean up.
You had better pray these guys use their hijacked plane on TPTB HQ, not anytown USA or anyburg, Europe.

Foley has been missing "wink wink since 2012. I think he is part of the propaganda parade. He comes from a white trash shit hole in NH so how did he get his job. How come nobody has come forward and said hey I knew him from High school ? Where are his old girlfriends? How come nobody in the JRM said " Wow I Bet it was hard to saw off a mans head with a steak knife". And lastly with Foley, Furguson, Ukraine in the news the Jewish run media did their job they kept the worlds eye off of Israel.
Perhaps you might want to head over and volunteer to find out out if the steak knife will work?
