In addition to an article in the journal "Islamic State" entitled Dabiq, a snapshot of a captive journalist in an orange robe was published, the same as that of previously executed American journalists.

“Now, if something does not change radically and very quickly, I am waiting for my turn,” the RIA journalist quotes. "News".

According to Cantley, he saw the Americans James Fowley and Stephen Sotloff being taken out of the cell, "knowing that they will never return, as they will be killed." The journalist stressed that his “friends in misfortune” were executed after the American and British authorities refused to discuss the conditions for their release.

It is worth noting that the militants have already posted three Cantley video messages on the network. In one of them, he called American aid to the Syrian opposition members useless. In another video, he described how he was captured on the territory of Syria in 2012, and urged the US authorities not to launch a military operation against the "Islamic State".

On social activist Matthew Wandyke’s Facebook page, Cantley worked in Libya along with James Foley, who was executed in August.

        Citizens of Russia, Ukraine and Belarus detained in Libya in 2011 on charges of aiding the regime of Muammar Gaddafi, released, write on Tuesday, October 7, RIA "Novosti" with reference to the newspaper "Kommersant". The main thing that can be said today is that all Russians have returned to their homeland and are in good health.
        This applies equally to the citizens of Belarus and Ukraine, for whom we fought with no less persistence than for our compatriots.
        Russians Alexander Shadrov and Vladimir Dolgov, three citizens of Belarus and 19 Ukrainians were detained by the forces of the Transitional National Council of Libya in 2011. They were accused of participating in hostilities on the side of Gaddafi. "Negotiations on the release of four Ukrainians and one Belarusian from prison in Tripoli continue.

        Yes, you are not lucky, the guy will be born in Britain. Here Russia is not only freeing its own, but also Belarusians and Ukrainians (I hope that they are not fascists in the future).

        feel Journalists - like dogs uncut. Therefore, it is unlikely that due to another stabbed coalition against the Islamic State, it will negotiate with jihadists. Family - condolences!

      Well, they wrote that there are no terrorists there, but only rebels! Your "rebels" are now cutting your necks ... you probably remember now Gaddaf, on whom a journalist poured mud ...

    The authorities do not care about a single person when it comes to the politics of the country. The maximum that they do will express their indignation at the next execution.

      And they don’t give a damn. If they make concessions, they will create a contender. And then the hostage-taking will begin around the world for different requirements. You need to calculate and extinguish pointwise.

    Cantley, your politicians will not help you. Their goal is to justify their attacks on Syria, hiding behind the deaths of their compatriots. Your prime minister is the same puppet of America as Europe.

    Why are the victims so calm when their heads are cut off?

      Perhaps they are told that this is all a re-enactment or they don’t know that the execution will be at this very moment.

      It is more like a theatrical production: an orange robe of a suicide bomber, black clothes of an executioner. Designed for a simple average man. But who is behind this statement is a question. Perhaps the West to justify the attacks on the IS, perhaps the IS itself to cause protests from fellow citizens.
      And they are calm, probably due to the use of drugs.

        The theater of the absurd in action !!! There will still be! While the media in the hands of Bankers and corporations until then there will be defamation-hired actors, dazzled mannequins, created the scenery and you're done! Hollywood steers! We've come up with it and put it in ... Syria , it’s up to the minor to overthrow Assad. The Turks are numbing, about to enter Syria .. But Iran threatened to immediately intervene and take the side of Syria.

    Somehow his posture, the position of his hands, the expression on his face with his real position do not fit. Too clean for captivity at ISIS.
    There is no fear.
    2 options:
    1. Either he is a stern SAS operative.
    2. Either this is an actor.
