the mainstream media treat us like idiots by hiding the true horrors of war,many bbc journalists including frank gardner have watched these isis snuff videos in there line of work.so why cant we,well yes we can.there are plenty of websites out there showing these isis snuff movies.why hide the true suffering and reality of war from the public,i say if they can and they still do show footage of the horrors of world war 2 in these documentarys on the tv in the uk why cant we see what is really going in iraq and syria real time in 2015.

I have the misfortune to have had to read Hitler’s Mein Kampf. (It was like reading a thousand Daily Mail editorials end to end.) I do not believe this made me complicit in the crimes of the Third Reich.

I think these videos will become counter prouctive pretty soon.
People I know have watched these as a sort of ‘rite of passage’.
A dare if you will. That they demonstrated to their peers that they could watch a beheading or whatever.
AFAIK, none have become persuaded of the ISIS case nor have become addicted to the horror.
Nor have any of them taken up knitting…..
We certainly need people like you to analyse these videos, for most it will not be viewed for these high moral purposes. It will be viewed for far more squalid bragging rights. At least in the testosterone dominated sector of our society.

Any sane person can not watch those sick ISIS videos for too long.
The world needs to know and see what a pack of barbaric, deluded, evil monster they are.
To be honest, I can now understand what Assad was warning the West about and why he would have wanted to use chemical weapons against such evil.

Very well said Sunny. This needs to be said and said loudly and repeatedly it seems at the moment.
Trust the hand-wringing left to come out with such nonsense. It’s a habit of mind that they seem to have where they wish to prohibit everyone from hearing or seeing or thinking about anything that the hand-wringers disagree with. I interpret this as a deep-seated fear of being “contaminated” by anything that runs counter to their own dogmas. Typical soviet-style kneejerk reactionism, turning everything into a thought crime. Suzanne Moore is also peddling the see-no-evil-hear-no-evil-speak-no-evil let’s baby everyone along line apparently.
It’s also especially bad from the hand-wringing right-on left perspective because it exposes for the BS it is the mythology about how all the bad things in the world are done by white, male people.
