All of us, every single man, woman, and child on the face of the Earth were born with the same unalienable rights; to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. And, if the governments of the world can't get that through their thick skulls, then, regime change will be necessary.
I am waiting for the first Muslim group to demand to open a chapter of ISIS on an American college campus. I figure it'll be Brown. Can't wait to watch the sniveling faculty senate squirming around behind the 1st amendment.
AOW and I remain closely linked following any breaking news story. The cross-pollination of ideas and sharing of links is mutually beneficial.
When AOW called me early this morning I knew it was not good news. Very quickly, I pulled up a Twitter feed with the latest news. Jihad media has been silent since the initial sighting of Peter Kassig as next-in-line for decapitation. Sure enough.... top of the feed.
We debated whether to post the link. I view such things on a regular basis due to my journalism within a rough market for anti-American sentiment. I lean toward not aiding and abetting the enemy (Islamic State). But I deferred to AOW's opinion on this today.
MSM has access (most likely limited views of thumbnails, etc) to break these stories. But there is a media blackout on the greater horrific images. We just do not want to be confronted with horror on this level.
I also support calling the organization by their official name: It is Islamic State, and not ISIS or ISIL. We balk at calling it Islamic State due to the connotation that greater Islam condones these acts. But Islamic State is functioning cased on primary source documents and jurisprudence. The Islam we see in the West has been modified and softened. (Thankfully!)
Tammy, referring to the group as "Islamic State" legitimizes their effort. I prefer "IS" since numerous denials by our own elected and non-elected spokespeople insist but not for the same connotations. "IS" ... Islamic Sin.

Around time marker 8:00, you can see these savages in action as they line up multiple men for a mass beheading. Sickening!
This is the enemy. Committed to killing for Allah.

Converting to Islam did not save his neck. Confirmed : https://twitter.com/STForeignDesk/status/533976839895515136

According to what I was reading on the web today, the Islamic State now has an army of some 200,000 soldiers. 200,000!
The IS is also minting its own currency.
