US journalist beheaded by ISIS...
Discussion
I believe the French, Italians and possibly even the Spanish have paid ISIS tens of millions of $s to get some of their journalists released. I can completely understand why most nations do not pay hostage ransoms because all it does is encourage more hostage taking however if it were a friend or family member of mine kidnapped by ISIS I'd rather they were French/Italian/Spanish than British or American.
fk knows how we get out of this situation - many ISIS fighters mix amongst the civilian population so you can't just bomb the st out of them and no one wants to see British and American troops on the ground in that region again. So what is left?
It's utterly surreal - we used to be worried about foreign groups sending Jihadis to Britain but now we are the ones sending them overseas.

You can't send SF anywhere until your intelligence is 100pc accurate and up-to-the-minute.
Otherwise it's another Ridley Scott movie in two years. And not in a good way.
Intelligence is almost never 100% accurate and up to the minute. In fact that's half the reason SF exist, in order to aid the accomplishment of that objective.You can't send SF anywhere until your intelligence is 100pc accurate and up-to-the-minute.

What's happened to the couple who were kidnapped in Afghanistan a couple of years ago?. The women was 7 months pregnant and decides to backpack in Afghanistan. I hope they are safe.
They are still being held captive by the Taliban. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2648727/De...
Such a barbaric, despicable act.
One thing that does run through my mind is this...
If i were the unfortunate captive and I got dressed in the orange suit and put in front of the camera etc I do wonder how I would manage to stay composed like the poor fellows in the video.
I'm not sure if I could 'go quietly' I would probably go berserk and try everything I could to do exactly what they didn't want. I'm not talking tough here, just wondering how these poor men facing a certain death manage to just stay composed.
Whatever though, may their souls rest in peace.

I'm with you; I think I'd have a mouthful of IS nuts before they whacked me.One thing that does run through my mind is this...

There was talk a while ago that they were also sedated which would explain their calmness.
Or part of coping with what was about to happen would be not to show fear to the utter s that did it.
I have watched the video, I never want to see its like again. If there is a god then he is not with ISIS.
This is simply the tip of the iceberg though, we are revolted by a single act but these maniacs have been killing thousands over the last few months.
