Haven't watched any of the executions. Can't imagine it looking any worse than the horrific scenes at 9/11, which the whole world sat and watched.

Do you watch these grim ISIS execution videos?

Not going to pollute my mind like that.

Watching a building collapse with the knowledge that people are inside is entirely different to seeing the emotion of a person being decapitated, up close and personal.

Would watching one improve or enrich my life in anyway? On the contrary, I feel,so the answer is a certain no.

Aren't we glorifying the executions right now by discussing it?
any sort of attention towards the executions is a win for ISIS is it not?

Burying our heads in the sand is not the answer, we need to discuss and overcome. We cannot simply turn our heads and look the other way, you need to face these things head on and face the demon and know what it is capable of and how to combat it.

These wars have never been about public opinion. How many people protested against the invasion of Iraq?

It is hard to go through life without seeing something gruesome. We have been watching the worst side of humanity since the early days of being able to film on the scene. I don’t think it’s a bad thing to have documented evidence of where we are in our evolution because it is a reminder of who we are and how humanity needs to progress. Without film it ends up being myth and legend.
We are still going through events that will be considered an extension of the biblical era, but with technology, when our species looks back at us in a few thousand years.

Sorry I am missing your point.

You stated that we need to discuss and overcome these problems ISIS are bringing to the world.
I replied telling you that these wars have never been about public opinion, I then asked how many of the public protested against the invasion of Iraq?
It's all related.

I voted "other".
If you use twitter as a news source things like this crop up. Usually they are edited and they actual act isn't shown. However I did see one with the French guy in Algeria, I have absolutely no desire to see another.
It was horrific and I cried.
There are some incredibly disturbed people out there who are prepared to commit heinous acts.

Can you explain what you mean about an "extension of the biblical era"?

Are you including Youtube into that?
Agree. Very rarely you get to see the whole footage as it is edited at the crucial moment.Even the French guy in Algeria.

Anyone think they might be fake considering it's all done by amateurs?
Shouldn't we be questioning the producer of these videos like we usually do?
Or are ISIS really that powerful?

When I was about 12 I walked into the living room where my father was watching a documentary. I saw what I thought was a video of a young asion man being shot in the head at point blank range.
I have since discovered through its pure fame that it was of Eddie Adam’s famous photograph of a Vietcong Guerilla being executed during the Vietnamese War.
To this day I am convinced I saw a video as I remember seeing his body slump after impact but the photo is famous enough for me to think this could have been my young mind playing tricks on me.
Needless to say it was enough for me and left me very upset as a young Clive Walker.
Recent research has lead me to understand that the victim was actually guilty of many evils himself but it still reminds me of the innocent feeling of distress that such things could have occurred.

Same here. That's the only one I have watched. Before that I thought they did beheading with a single chop with an axe or sword. I learnt differently and I never want to see it again.
