I don't know if we will ever get the balls to get over there and put a stop to all of this, but I feel that if I can keep these stories in the spotlight, hopefully we can finally do something about these Jihadists.

This crime took place in 2014, but the video seems to have surfaced this month:

THIS VIDEO LINK SHOWS 200 CHILDREN AND YOUNG MEN BOUND, ON THEIR KNEES AND BEING SHOT REPEATEDLY BY AN ARMY OF ISIS FIGHTERS, please do not click on the link if you have a weak stomach.

Isis Executes 200 young Assad regime soldiers

If anyone has Obama's email address, could you make sure he gets a copy of this? Not that he'd likely care.

The United States is kept too sanitized as to what's going on in the rest of the world.

When's the last time you, as an American, heard anything about what's happening in Liberia right now? My guess it's never, or not in a very long time.

If America really paid attention to the horrors happening elsewhere in the world, we would be forced to act to help these folks.

Here's the information about the video that I can find as a follow up:

A horrific ISIS video which purportedly shows 200 Syrian children being lined up and gunned by militants has been revealed to be a jihadi propaganda video from 2014.

The sickening mass execution video was posted online by an anti-ISIS activist based in Yemen and quickly started to draw condemnation from social media users shocked by the atrocities.

However the footage is believed to have filmed in late August 2014 and the victims are prisoners of war who were caught by ISIS after the jihadi group overran the Assad held Tabqa airbase in Syria.

Forced to lie side-by-side and with their faces in the dirt, the video shows about 200 Assad regime soldiers fighting in the Syrian Arab Army stretched out in a long line to the left and right.

Behind them, at least a dozen gunmen armed with assault rifles and handguns stand poised and ready to fire.

One militant then begins firing at point blank range - shooting each prisoner individually as he makes along the row of victims.

Others beside him also open fire, mostly using their machine guns, and the area is filled with dust, obscuring much of the bloodshed.
The video is believed to have been filmed close to Tabqa airbase after the strategic site was overrun by militants.

ISIS continues to control a swathe of territory, including Raqqa, the capital of the terrorists' self-proclaimed caliphate.

ISIS is known to have carried out mass executions of prisoners in the past. In one instance, 1,700 Iraqi military cadets were slaughtered in a mass killing that lasted an entire day and night.

Grisly footage of the killings - likely to rank among the group's worst atrocities - showed executions on an industrial scale near Tikrit in Iraq.

Young men were filmed falling from trucks and pleading for their lives before being lay down in shallow graves and sprayed with bullets.

He has a facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/President-B...4513649947965/ Right now he's throwing little tidbits on there about how we, as Americans need to care about the widows and orphan "refugees", stop discriminating against Muslims, blah, blah,blah.........Oops, he left this picture out.

Yes, like helping them flee those horrors and giving them refuge.

That's what you mean, right?

Yay, more whining. And of course what's going on in Syria is somehow Obama's fault because, why not? I guess he's responsible for literally everything that happens in the world.

You geniuses need to decide whether the President Obama of your lurid and insane fantasies is a Muslim fifth-columnist, or someone who cares not one iota about the poor Muslims children.

By the way, who is trying to accommodate the refugees, including children, who are desperate to flee Syria (hint: Obama!) and who is calling those refugees future-if-not-present terrorists? (Republicans!)

Oh, and as for the children of Syria - they've been suffering under Assad rule for the last 45 years, and you never gave a rat's rump about their fate until you decided that they might be a useful way to bash Obama.

If you think American boots need to be on the ground to protect Syrians (Hello? Bueller? What's the purpose of the American military?) then you're probably one of the geniuses who thought invading Iraq was a great idea (because you believed that there really were 'vast stockpiles of WMD', that Saddam Hussein was involved in the 9/11 attacks, and that they would 'greet us as liberators', and that regime change would lead to a flowering of Middle Eastern democracy, right?).

Tell you what, start by calling your Congressman and Senators and demanding that they vote to accept refugees, including these children (unless your representatives are one of those Democrats - not Republicans - who actually supports taking in these refugee children, because they don't need to be urged to do the right thing). Then there will at least be a reason to start taking you seriously.

I believe that one was debunked long ago. They changed the resolution in the video to make it appear as they were executing children. They were actually executing captured Syrian soldiers. They may have also tried to pass off the video in another story about executing Iraqis in Mosul.

Many of the ISIS stories have been bogus.

Top 10 Bogus ISIS Stories

The media often goes ahead with these stories and offers no retraction, the same with the bogus terrorism stings and the bogus Yemen bomb plots carried out by the CIA and exposed in a leak by an FBI bomb technician.
