    For those who still don’t get why the War of Terror continues to fail after 14+ years, here is another lesson.

    We all remember “Jihadi John,” who of course was never called that except in the western media. John (real name: Mohammed Emwazi) was a British citizen who became radicalized, joined ISIS and went on to do horrible things, including beheadings. The media, in hand with the White House and Downing Street, fluffed this one loser guy up into an international super villain. So, when eventually the world’s most powerful nation finally killed him in November 2015 with million-dollars air sorties and drones, we were all supposed to go full-out-bin-Laden-celebration, on the road to victory over Islamic State, with a little old fashioned Wild West vengeance thrown in for the feel good.

    And so now guess what?

    There’s a new guy to replace Jihadi John. He doesn’t have a stupid nickname yet, so let’s be the first and call him Haji Hank. He executed five persons claimed to be British spies, creating the video you see above in the process.

    The U.S. strategy is called whack-a-mole. You smite bin Laden and someone takes over — al Qaeda is still around, people. You suppress al Qaeda to a certain extent, and ISIS pops up. There are lots and lots of Jihadi Johns and Haji Hanks out there, waiting in line. Even the world’s most powerful nation can’t kill them all. They do more than reproduce; they recruit.

    The video I could locate cuts off before the shooting. Those who have seen the whole thing say the five men are then all shot at point blank range. The video ends with a young child wearing military fatigues and speaking in English: “We are going to go kill the kafir [non-believers] over there.”

    U.K. security agencies immediately started to try to identify the man in the video and are working on the assumption that it is a real message from ISIS. “British investigators will have to rely on voice analysis to try to establish his identity and by monitoring chatter on Twitter and other social media as well as other electronic communication to see if there are any clues,” reports the Guardian.

    Twitter chatter. That’ll show them.

      Good Grief,

      Google and Facebook better get cracking to delete this speech.

      Speaking of hate speech, doesn’t The Donald fall under their delete speech guidelines?

      I don’t know about that, but he should be indicted for hate speech while under the influence of stupidity.

      Meanwhile, living proof that Murika

      a. is a 3.806 million square mile insane asylum..

      b. with a half population of delusional inbred psychopaths who think “due process” is a debt collection letter, and a military who’s ranks from top to bottom prove it beyond a shadow of doubt.

      Lest one think this is hyperbole.. if you read this in it’s entirety, including the comments, and then honestly say you are still proud to be an American… then I rest my case.
