Offended?

If you have been offended by "James Foley",
please click here and slowly scroll down to the bottom of the page.


The pen is mightier than the sword, they said.

James Wright Foley was an American journalist formerly employed by the GlobalPost, Agence France-Presse and Stars and Stripes who is currently working as a horror movie prop and bowling ball. While stationed in Syria he was abducted by US-backed terrorist group the FSA and given to ISIS. US commandos tried to rescue Foley but unfortunately he was beheaded before they could shoot him.

Career

Pre-beheading Foley worked as a propagandist for the US government, writing for such imperialist and jingoistic shitrags such as Stars and Stripes which openly opines that the spoiled welfare queens and war criminals in the US military aren't getting enough benefits for murdering a million people in Iraq.

He was also a famous pro-wrestler.
 
“ 		 
The Stars and Stripes used illustrations to communicate ideas, especially those aimed at justifying military goals and encouraging the troops' adherence to the war effort. . . . In many cases, the images selected by the editors would be considered propaganda by today's standards. . . . Besides expressing editorial opinion, cartoons entertained the troops, offering them humorous stories and images that satirized everyday life in the military.
  		„
 

— The origins of Stars and Stripes - The US Library of Congress [1]

At the time of his death he was working for GlobalPost for whom he wrote many biased classics, such as this one covering US soldiers in Afghanistan:

 
“ 		 
It always amazes me how brave these guys are. But I’m a civilian with no previous military experience. Not only are these guys used to taking fire several times a week, they have leaders – soldiers who have had more than one deployment and performed under many horrific, mind-boggling conditions. One yell or decisive action from such a leader can make all the difference in how the younger soldiers act and ultimately ensure the safety of the entire patrol.

(...)

I find I often have trouble leaving a unit even if I spend only a week with them. These guys would easily risk their own lives to save mine. They are mostly young kids compared to me, and they share everything from sweets they got from their mom to swapping photos and videos.
 

„

Capture

Not the time to lose one's head. That's not the way to get ahead in life. It's a shame he wasn't more headstrong. He'll never be the head of a major corporation.

Remember the Free Syrian Army? The American puppet terrorist group trying to overthrow the democratically elected[3] government of Bashar Al-Assad in Syria? The same terrorist group that Obama sent half a billion dollars to, armed and trained [4]? Guess who they kidnapped? Lol.

 
“ 		 
According to Syrian sources who have worked previously to locate and rescue kidnapped journalists in Syria, American journalist James Foley, who was beheaded by Islamic State in a video the militant group made public on Tuesday, was most likely used by another guerrilla group as a token of allegiance to ISIS.

According to those sources, Foley was in the hands of the Dawood Bridgade, a group that was originally aligned with relatively moderate opposition groups such as the Free Syrian Army, but recently pledged allegiance to ISIS.

— Whoops! [5]

Statement

Unaired footage.
 
“ 		 
I call on my friends, family, and loved ones to rise up against my real killers, the US government. For what will happen to me is only a result of their complacency and criminality.

My message to my beloved parents, save me some dignity, and don't accept some meagre compensation, for my death, from the same people who effectively hit the last nail in my coffin with their recent aerial campaign in Iraq.

I call on my brother John, who is a member of the US air force. Think about what you are doing, think about the lives you destroy, including those of your own family. I call on you John, think about who made the decision to bomb Iraq recently and kill those people, whoever they may have been. Think John, who did they really kill? And did they think about me, you, our family when they made that decision?

I died that day John, when your colleagues dropped that bomb on those people they signed my death certificate. I wish I had more time. I wish I could have the hope of freedom and seeing my family once again. But that ship has sailed. I guess all in all I wish I wasn't American.

Motive

Next time somebody says Foley was an objective journalist, show them this picture.

Like 9/11, 7/7 and almost every Islamic terrorist attack you can think of, this was retaliation for American foreign policy. As the killer explains:

 
“ 		 
This is James Wright Foley, an American citizen of your country. As a government you have been at the forefront of aggression towards the Islamic State. You have plotted against us and gone far out of your way to find reasons to interfere in our affairs. Your strikes have cause casualties among Muslims. You’re no longer fighting an insurgency. We are an Islamic army and a state that has been accepted by a large number of Muslims worldwide. So effectively, any aggression toward the Islamic State is an aggression toward Muslims of all walks of life who have accepted the Islamic caliphate as their leadership. So any attempt by you, Obama, to deny Muslims their right of living in safety under the Islamic caliphate will result in the bloodshed of your people.

Beheading

The British killer doesn't observe proper untensil etiquette by holding the knife in his right hand. We can ascertain from this that he would not be welcome at a high class dinner party

Sequel

Halp.

Steven Joel Sotloff, an American journalist who has written for TIME and the Christian Science Monitor, kidnapped in Syria in August 2013 makes a cameo appearance at the end of the video. The masked killer, who from this point forward we'll refer to as Jason Voorhees, implies that the man's life will be spared if Obama stops bombing Islamic State.

So, we'll have another beheading video next week then.

Parents

 
“ 		 
The family of beheaded journalist James Foley have revealed they have watched the gruesome video of his sickening execution.

The footage of the brutal murder was posted on YouTube by IS fanatics after they killed Mr Foley in cold blood on Tuesday.

His father John explained he and his wife had watched the video because “We just needed to know”.

When asked if he could forgive those behind the barbaric act he added: “Not today... but as Christians we have to."
