URGENT: ISIS Beheads Kidnapped US Journalist James Foley, Video Posted Online






BREAKING NEWS: ISIS Says It Beheaded Kidnapped Journalist James Foley, Posts Graphic Video.
(IBT) Journalist James Foley, who was reportedly kidnapped in Syria in 2012, has been beheaded, a graphic video released by supposed Islamic State militants purports to show. The video appears to show Foley kneeling beside a man dressed in all black. It begins with a speech by President Obama announcing the U.S. military would begin targeted airstrikes against the Islamic State, the group that has declared a caliphate across parts of Syria and Iraq also known as ISIS, to stop its advance on Erbil in Iraqi Kurdistan.

The video switches to a black screen with white writing that reads: "A Message to America." Foley then begins to recite a message, presumably written for him by ISIS, about his "real killer" -- America. At the end of the video, the executioner begins sawing at Foley's neck with a knife. After a blackout, the last image appears to show Foley's head, detached, lying on top of his body.
