Guys take it from me (an actual muslim) NOT ALL MUSLIMS ARE LIKE THIS. These people who join IS aren't even muslims, because no muslim can call themselves a muslim when they threaten killing and hurting others of different beliefs. These IS assholes just need to die imho  :yes:

Do you think the Islam/muslim community is doing enough to show that they oppose the extremists?

Do you think the Islam/muslim community is doing enough to show that they oppose the extremists?

Yes. The scholars have issued fatwas warning NOT to join this group. The ones who joined usually have no any religious knowledge, are very young and naive, have dubious past with d--g abuse/mental illness. This woman is older but look at her past, being in rock band, you can imagine the d--g/alcohol abuse, single mom, living on benefits, probably no education etc. She had ONLINE romance with double younger man and decided to convert and move there? And already has this extreme views? My guess some people have urge to kill and torture and they found a perfect way by joining a radical group abroad and not getting caught.

(CNN) -- The ISIS terror group has published a video titled "A second message to America," showing the beheading of American journalist Steven Sotloff.

The video also threatens the life of British captive, David Haines.

Sotloff speaks to the camera before he is killed, saying he is "paying the price" for U.S. intervention.

The masked ISIS figure in the video speaks to U.S. President Barack Obama, telling him, "Just as your missiles continue to strike our people, our knife will continue to strike the necks of your people."

Last week, Sotloff's mother Shirley Sotloff released a video pleading with ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi not to kill her son.

"Steven is a journalist who traveled to the Middle East to cover the suffering of Muslims at the hands of tyrants. Steven is a loyal and generous son, brother and grandson," she said. "He is an honorable man and has always tried to help the weak."

Sotloff appeared last month in an ISIS video showing the decapitation of another American journalist, James Foley. The militant in the video warned that Sotloff's fate depended on what President Barack Obama did next in Iraq.

Steven Sotloff disappeared while reporting from Syria in August 2013, but his family kept the news secret, fearing harm to him if they went public.

Out of public view, the family and a number of government agencies have been trying to gain Sotloff's release for the past year.

Sotloff, 31, grew up in South Florida with his mother, father and younger sister. He majored in journalism at the University of Central Florida. His personal Facebook page lists musicians like the Dave Matthews Band, Phish, Miles Davis and movies like "Lawrence of Arabia" and "The Big Lebowski" as favorites. On his Twitter page, he playfully identifies himself as a "stand-up philosopher from Miami."

In 2004, Sotloff left UCF and moved back to the Miami area.

He graduated from another college, began taking Arabic classes and subsequently picked up freelance writing work for a number of publications, including Time, Foreign Policy, World Affairs and the Christian Science Monitor. His travels took him to Yemen, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Turkey -- among other countries -- and eventually Syria.

Very sad for their families. I hope it stops.

How does CNN get the video? The terrorists just email it to [email protected]?

 

I dont get it

sure, they send them directly to the stations or post them on their own websites. i think osama bin laden used to send physical tapes.

What kind of religion do they have which condones the killing of precious lives and kidnapping people?

 

Thank god the US isn't paying the ransom fee to free these unfortunate captives and they will be forever known for their sacrifice...  :cry:
