James Foley Beheading Appears to Be a Fake Staged Event

First, a special shout out must  go to veteran war correspondent Eric Margolis who warned the Foley "beheading" might have been staged. He wrote:
The alleged beheading of freelance journalist James Foley by the shadowy ISIS (or Islamic State) has sparked outrage and horror around the globe.
I say “alleged” because we are not sure if the decapitation was real or faked.
After three decades of covering wars in the Mideast, Africa, Latin America, and Afghanistan, my reaction as a journalist was also outrage – but cautious outrage.
Here is what The Telegraph is now reporting:
The video of James Foley’s execution may have been staged...
Forensic analysis of the footage of the journalist’s death has suggested that the British jihadist in the film may have been the frontman rather than the killer. 
The clip, which apparently depicts Mr Foley’s brutal beheading, has been widely seen as a propaganda coup for Islamic State miltant group.
But a study of the four-minute 40-second clip, carried out by an international forensic science company which has worked for police forces across Britain, suggested camera trickery and slick post-production techniques appear to have been used.
A forensic analyst told The Times that no blood can be seen, even though the knife is drawn across the neck area at least six times.
"After enhancements, the knife can be seen to be drawn across the upper neck at least six times, with no blood evidence to the point the picture fades to black,” the analysis said.
Sounds allegedly made by Foley do not appear consistent with what may be expected.
During Foley’s speech, there appears to be a blip which could indicate the journalist had to repeat a line.
One expert commissioned to examine the footage was reported as saying: “I think it has been staged."

With no evidence at all The Telegraph then goes on to suggest he was likely killed away from the video. Add another mystery to the pile suggesting evil operators skilled in propaganda (SEE: Are Evil Operators Pushing the President Toward More War?), who are intent in drawing the U.S. into war.

  4. The government could never do something as despicable as pretending to kill someone to incite domestic rage.

    They would just kill them for the ratings.
