U.S. airstrike targets ‘Jihadi John’ in Syria
POSTED 10:45 PM, NOVEMBER 12, 2015, BY CNN

WASHINGTON (CNN) — U.S. forces targeted “Jihadi John” in an airstrike in Raqqa, Syria, the Pentagon announced Thursday night.

It was not immediately clear whether the strike was successful.

“Jihadi John,” whom Western officials have identified as Mohammed Emwazi, has appeared in a series of brutal ISIS execution videos, taunting Western leaders in a British accent.

Pentagon Press Secretary Peter Cook announced the strike in a statement.

“Emwazi, a British citizen, participated in the videos showing the murders of U.S. journalists Steven Sotloff and James Foley, U.S. aid worker Abdul-Rahman Kassig, British aid workers David Haines and Alan Henning, Japanese journalist Kenji Goto, and a number of other hostages.

“We are assessing the results of tonight’s operation and will provide additional information as and where appropriate,” Cook said.

This guy was prepared to die if you leave the comforts of the West to fight in Syria. The propaganda will be that this is a major blow to ISIS when this guy had no operational command or was some type of spiritual leader. He was a glorified soldier ordered to kill. Now his death and sacrifice will be an inspiration for others to join the fight.

His death will be used to further support mission creep by the U.S. military into the affairs of Syria which will result in another full scale war (Afghanistan/Iraq).

My analysis is that these beheadings were part of a much broader strategy than just savage killings that appears to have worked.

Share the analysis, i.e., what facts and circumstances taken together causes one to conclude that, "beheadings were part of a much broader strategy than just savage killings;" and what is that "broader strategy" ???

For ISIS to defeat the U.S. and European powers, they are going have to mimic Western ideas and other bullshit they spew out such as freedom and democracy. They are going to have to treat women like they do in the West, even if it is against your culturally beliefs.

Russia tried this strategy when they annexed Crimea by having voting.

Having such a divergent culture allows the U.S. to mobilize support for war. They can't use the crap they are bringing freedom and democracy when you are saying and doing the same thing.

Beheadings accomplish nothing.

 

[ORIGINAL NATION]

Why ISIS never did anything to Israel? The desire of all Arab nations is to remove the Jews from the middle east. Are we really depended on the american military and NATO to protect us?? All over the world there is becoming a need to rely on white power for protection.
When Botha killed thousands of blacks in South Africa everyday, president Reagan was trying to send troops to South Africa to make sure he stays in power. When the so called rebels committed genocide on blacks in Libya, they were organized and helped by America and NATO.
I have not been trying to keep up with ISIS or what all is going on with that. I spend everyday fighting against white supremacy right here in America. It is all about those with money having sold their soul as a man to have money and power. Behind this somebody will end up with more money and power and control of the masses. I know it will not be the blacks in South Africa, they had to turn the wealth and control of the resources of their land to white power. And here in America blacks will remain niggas, nothings, and poor junkies unless they to can promote white ideas, white values, and a white reality.
