ISIS Beheads Another American After Report "Jihadi John" Injured In Air Strike; Gen. Dempsey Arrives In Iraq

Tyler Durden's picture




 

As if like clockwork, just hours after reports surfaced that "Jihadi John", the British-accented Islamic State militant allegedly responsible for the beheading of western hostages, had been injured in a US air strike, the Islamic State released another video which, as the WSJ reports, "appeared to show the severed head of American aid worker Peter Kassig, a Muslim convert who risked his life to provide medical attention to victims of Syria’s civil war."

As the Daily Mail first reported yesterday, "Jihadi John, the Briton who beheaded two British and two American hostages held by Islamic State terrorists, has been injured in a US-led air strike, according to reports received by the Foreign Office. The masked ‘executioner’ with a London accent is believed to have narrowly escaped death when he attended a summit of the group’s leaders in an Iraqi town close to the Syrian border last Saturday."

More from the Mail:

"We are aware of reports that this individual [Jihadi John] has been injured, and we are looking into them,’ a Foreign Office spokesman told The Mail on Sunday.

 

This newspaper has received an independent account of how Jihadi John was injured and rushed to hospital after a devastating air strike in Al Qaim, in Anbar Province, Western Iraq.

 

The Foreign Office spokesman added: ‘We have a number of sources of information coming in.

 

‘The incident occurred last weekend, and so we have received the reports in the last few days. We don’t have any representation inside Syria, and so it is difficult to confirm these reports.’

So perhaps in prompt and direct refutation that the infamous executioner had been injured, a few hours ago, ISIS release its latest execution video. Yet, oddly, as in several previous instances, the 15-minute video released Sunday doesn’t show the beheading according to the WSJ, but closes with a masked man clad in black standing above what he claims is Mr. Kassig’s severed head.

The extremist spoke with a British accent, and appeared to be the same man who appeared in four videos released over the past few months showing the killing of British and American hostages, i.e., the same Jihadi John who was said to have been injured.

Addressing U.S. President Barack Obama , the man says: “You claim to have withdrawn from Iraq four years ago and we said you were liars…and [now] here you are, you have not withdrawn,” justifying Mr. Kassig’s beheading as a response to the U.S.-led military coalition that is striking Islamic State in Iraq and Syria.

 

“The spark has been lit here in Iraq and its heat will continue to intensify until by Allah’s [God’s] permission it will burn the crusaders army,” he continues, referring to the U.S.-led military coalition.

As the WSJ further reports, "the 26-year-old Indiana native was kidnapped in October 2013 as he delivered aid to eastern Deir Ezzour province. During the past year, he converted to Islam and took on the name Abdul Rahman, Arabic for “servant of the merciful.”

He prayed devoutly and fasted during the holy month of Ramadan, according to other Western captives who were freed by Islamic State after their governments paid ransoms to the group."

His friends had tried to talk him out of making his last trip to Syria from his base in southern Turkey in October 2013. The landscape in Syria had changed by then, and Islamic State was routing out the rebels and civilians who had given Mr. Kassig shelter and support during previous trips.

 

“If I do die, I figure that at least you and I can seek refuge and comfort in knowing that I went out as a result of trying to alleviate suffering and helping those in need,” Mr. Kassig wrote to his family in a letter they received in June.

Shortly after reports of the video emerged, Ed and Paula Kassig, Peter Kassig's parents, issued a statement:

“We are aware of the news reports being circulated about our treasured son and are waiting for confirmation from the government as to the authenticity of these reports. We will have no other statement at this time and ask that you please respect our privacy.

 

“The family respectfully asks that the news media avoid playing into the hostage takers’ hands and refrain from publishing or broadcasting photographs or video distributed by the hostage takers. We prefer our son is written about and remembered for his important work and the love he shared with friends and family, not in the manner the hostage takers would use to manipulate Americans and further their cause.”

And in other, related news, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel told CNN that he may have to consider recommendations to place ground forces in Iraq to help forces there locate targets if, in fact, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff makes that recommendation.

But these would not be fighting forces, Hagel said. "There will be no American combat troops in Iraq or Syria."

So just more "military advisors"?

Gen. Martin Dempsey has suggested at least twice that a recommendation of ground troops could come, although he has emphasized he has not made that proposal yet.

 

He has also said that he doesn't "foresee a circumstance when it would be in our interest to take this fight on ourselves with a large military contingent." The general landed in Iraq on Saturday to make a first-hand assessment of the situation.

In other words, the "situation" will likely change soon.

Langley was releasing videos of Osama bin Laden for years after he died on December 15, 2001 probably of renal failure. There is no way to confirm the veracity of videos these days.  If videos are convenient to bring more war then they are probably fabricated in Langley.  US troops will soon be in Iraq and soon after in Syria.  The Nobel Prize Winner has never seen a war that he did not escalate. Yet Putin is the mass-murdering maniac:

Top general says US troops may be needed to retake Iraqi cities

 

By Bill Van Auken 
15 November 2014

 

The Pentagon is “certainly considering” sending US ground troops into Iraq for inevitably bloody battles to retake Mosul, the country’s second-largest city, from the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), and to secure the predominantly Sunni Anbar province and its border with Syria, the top uniformed US commander told a Congressional hearing Thursday.

Army Gen. Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, addressed the House Armed Services Committee barely one week after the Obama administration ordered the doubling of the number of US troops deployed in Iraq, with another 1,500 “advisers” being sent into the country, most of them to embattled Anbar province.

With the new US war in the Middle East now in its fourth month, there is every indication that this was only the first in what will prove a series of military escalations as Washington pursues a strategy that extends well beyond the stated aim of “degrading and destroying” ISIS.

It is possible that Obama was chosen to play Osama in the CIA made for TV Osama videos after his death. This bit of co-dependence may have been what propelled the femmy-golf-swinging actor to the Whitehouse.

The irony of Obama killing himself (as in a TV series) would be priceless.

To this point there have always been easy to spot clues in the videos.

The American people expect reality to look a certain way on television. To present it any other way it would not look like reality to the American consumer. So, when creating made-for-TV reality the creators of the video employ people, including make-up artists to make things look "TV real".

I tend to look at the eyebrows on propaganda photos and videos. It is not likely that a psychopathic killer or jihadi spends a lot of time grooming their eyebrows. So, if the eyebrows are "Hollywood" eyebrows, either from grooming or Photoshop, the video or photo is most likely a "made for TV" consumable.

You can go all the way back to the Osama bin Laden videos and the photos of the kid who they say was the Sandy Hook killer (although it looks more and more as if no one was killed at Sandy Hook).

Maybe this is an intentional tell or maybe it is just that make-up people are just trained one particular way.

I cannot believe that Russia would not know about the origins of ISIS and who is involved.

The only question is whether they are complicit and if not what purpose it would serve to make claims that would be denied.

Once they put on a public face saying that they have evidence of the CIA running ISIS in Syria and the US is bombing Assad, not ISIS, there would be an expectation that they would have to do something about it.

It is unlikely that the timing is right, even if they are not complicit with Obama (which I believe) and the larger goal.

New ISIS video claims beheading of American hostage Peter Kassig

“The authenticity of the footage has not been verified. National Security Council spokesperson Bernadette Meehan said in a statement that intelligence officials were "working as quickly as possible to determine its authenticity.”

“I will save you the time and tax dollars. If Rita Katz and SITE had anything to do with it, it is a fake.”

Is Rita Katz website pushing another fake ISIS beheading ?

Just to state the obvious:

One does not win a war by killing civilians. The psychopaths in charge of the government don't give a damn. Unless one believes that there is an infinite supply of psychopaths then one is probably best off addressing the psychopaths and not those who the psychopath oppresses and cares nothing for.

One does not end suffering by helping a few people. One ends suffering by changing the conditions that cause them to suffer. (which varies, depending on the circumstance, but usually involves the will of psychopaths, who cause people to suffer)

I never said that the psychopaths in charge want to win wars. Wars keep the people afraid and keeps the psychopaths in power.

It is just such evidence that: NO ONE IS ADDRESSING THE REAL ISSUE of the psychopaths that the wars never get resolved.

... and too many people think they are doing no harm by sucking off the teit of the psychopaths. It is someone else who is going to be murdered or become a murderer.

The oddest thing about the whole thing, if you believe the msm narrative, is why anyone would deliberately keep making video productions guaranteed to provoke revulsion and hatred universally. It's a 24/7 festival of prodding, goading, begging the Pentagon and the american public to come and put some boots on the ground for Iraq War V3.0 spilling over nicely into regime change Syria V1.1 (V1.0 was the chemical weapons crap last year)

After a lifetime of bullshit from the MIC, you'd have to be insane to believe that these nutjobs aren't connected to the CIA and Mossad. I'm only surprised Al-Baghdadi wasn't treated in a Tel Aviv hospital like the rest of his gang.

While I feel for the family of Jihadi John, his plight is of little relevance to the bigger picture that is being played out in this part of the world where hundreds are killed each day including women and children.

Stories of such individuals detract from the true level of destruction of people's lives in Syria and Iraq and are designed to garner support for Western intervention.

ISIS is no doubt bad news whether it is a truly Muslim organization or an Israeli or CIA concoction. 

Equally bad is Turkey for buying oil from the ISIS clan at half price. No one in the US is calling for Turkey to be punished or to be hit with sanctions.

As usual there is a great deal of hypocrisy going around and as a result analysis using logic and the rule of law is useless.

Expect more twists and turns courtesy of the madmen running this world.

I wonder if we'll get two subplots going to distract the populace. War in Iraq and Syria while they impeach The Flamer In Chief.

Firebombing an Iraqi village, burning women, children and men to a crisp, raises nary an eyebrow for the American audience but give them a beheading and the crowd goes wild.

Beheading was always used to raise the emotions as in the drama of nations’ histories and especially to discourage any opposition to the rulers. Those Scottish supporters who were caught up in Bonnie Prince Charles’s defeat in 1746 lost their property and their country but the beheadings were to deter the masses. Charles’ supporters were put in dungeons and on stinking prison ships – delivering some to freedom but many to death by disease or gallows and many others to the transports carrying bondservants to America and the West Indies.

And, there was sword control. Possession of a claymore, the fearsome Highland broadsword, was punishable by death.  Crofters, who had lived all their lives by raising cattle, were dragged to coastal villages either to starve or learn the skills of fisherman or weavers. All Highland dress – the bonnet, plaid, and kilt—was strictly forbidden.

Arthur Elphinstone, 6th Lord Balmerinock (1746) was beheaded at Tower Hill as a Jacobite supporter of Prince Charles Edward Stuart after being taken prisoner at Culloden.

 Wikipedia List of notables who were beheaded :

The following is a list of notable people who were beheaded, arranged alphabetically by country or region and with date of decapitation. Special sections on "Religious figures" and "Fictional characters" are also appended.

Obviously, the beheadings did little to control people lusting for power based upon the long history of beheadings in that tiny little country.

Oh my, where's my crying towel.

Which is more barbarous, beheading or attacking, firebombing and occupying a sovereign country? And killing a few hundred thousand citizens?

I can’t get over the fact of these simple, innocent people living out their lives in these little villages for generation after generation and, suddenly, modern jet aircraft blows them and their villages all apart for the birth of “Greater Israel” under the guise of “oil.”

There is only one primary reason that the United States is fighting in Muslim countries and that the American press is using Muslims as America’s primary enemy.  That reason is that these Muslim countries are standing in Israel’s path for expansion.

Screaming  JEWSA!JEWSA!JEWSA!!!!! doesn’t change documented fact.

The Zionists’ ambition in Palestine - and now the entire Middle East –always was camouflaged but the fact is they always intended to displace the Arabs who “had tilled the soil and lived in the towns for a thousand years.”

Writes Yancey Ames in “The History of the ‘Deserted Land,’” “Even in the early days of the British mandate some Zionists were remarkably candid about their true aims. Vladimir Jabotinsky wrote two famous essays in a Russian language newspaper in Paris. They were entitled ‘The Iron Wall!’ and ‘The Iron Law.’ Jabotinsky freely admitted that the Arabs of Palestine were not savages. They were members of an inferior culture but were nevertheless deeply attached to the land where they had lived for centuries. They were not about to sell their homeland for lucre. The Arabs of Palestine would never consent to a Jewish state in their midst until all hope was lost to them. This would require ‘an iron wall of bayonets’ to compel submission to the inevitable. Then and only then would the Arabs come to terms.

“Such unequivocal language…gives the lie to their pretense that they came to a deserted land.”

It was during WWII, in 1944, according to Ames, that “the Jewish underground began its campaign of assassination and murder against English officials and soldiers” as they began stealing arms from British military depots, after the British in 1939 “issued their famous White Paper in which they repudiated their intention of creating a Jewish state in Palestine. Seventy-five thousand Jews would be admitted to Palestine over the next five years after which no more Jews would be admitted without the consent of the Arabs.”

Thus, the Jewish underground expulsion of the Arabs into the desert began in earnest…

If the guy converted, they were wrong to behead him.  The Internet is a cesspool, who knows what the facts really are.

Perhaps there is a subtle message here.  Maybe, just maybe, we should leave these people and what they have, alone. I suppose that is not good enough for the Netanyahus and Nudelmans and Kohns (I mean, Kerrys) and the dual-passport Secty of Defense and all the other dual passport types in charge.

Our Administration is a metastisizing cancer bent on promulgating ww3 with every means at its disposal.  The venailty is stunning.

Do you? The point is Islam says that it is a sin to kill a believer.

“And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his punishment is Hell; he shall abide in it, and Allah will send His wrath on him and curse him and prepare for him a painful chastisement.” (Surah an-Nis?’ 4:93)

http://www.al-islam.org/greater-sins-volume-1-ayatullah-sayyid-abd-al-husayn-dastghayb-shirazi/fifth-greater-sin-murder

One Murder is Equal to the Killing the Whole of Humanity

“Whoever slays a soul, unless it be for a manslaughter or for mischief in the land, it is as though he slew all men; and whoever keeps it alive, it is as though he kept alive all men.” (Surah al-M?’ida 5:32)

All the believers are sons of Adam (a.s.) and brothers to one another. One who kills another person perpetrates a great evil and instigates a feeling of malice, revenge and hatred among people.

One Who Instigates a Murder is the Actual Killer

The third tradition, also from Imam Ja’far as-Sadiq (a.s.) says,

“The Holy Prophet (S) was told that a Muslim has been killed and his corpse is lying on the street. When the Holy Prophet (S) and his companions reached the site of the murder, he enquired as to who the killer was.”

The people said, “We do not know.” The Prophet was surprised,

“A person has been killed among the Muslims, and no one knows of his killer?”

“By the Almighty who appointed me with Prophethood, If all the creatures of the heavens and the earth participate in the murder of a Muslim and be pleased upon that, then Allah would surely involve them in punishment and send them all to Hell.”

The lesson derived from this hadith is that there is no difference between the killer and those who support or co-operate with him. …

In the early days of man, stones and clubs were used to bash in enemy skulls - but that was deemed too barbaric (and messy) - and this was replaced by beheadings once cutting weapons were perfected. Cutting weapons advanced to a high art with the use of the guillotine. Beheadings were then replaced with such non-barbaric methods such as firing squads, hangings, and lethal injections. Some people still consider these barbaric, but fortunately we now have less barbaric choices today - like cruise missiles and drones???

There must be budget cuts at the studio where they're filming the fake beheadings because the newest one they don't even pretend to do anything

The story of JJ allegedly being taken out in a bombing was a psyop of a psyop to judge the reaction of the masses to his death. The polls are in but the results haven't been released yet. But its not looking good. I've heard rumors they're interviewing to replace Jihadi John because he's just not having the impact he was before

The finalists to replace John are Jihadis Matthew, Mark & Luke
