    A Terrorist and terrorism, is defined as a man, woman or person, who interferes with the proper functions of government agencies and its agents.

    When a external government Agency or Agent, interferes with property of i: a man, said entities are terrorizing the proper function of my self-governance; for reference, do Google search of current U.S. president Barrack Obama and read his Federal Government Shutdown from last October 17th 2013, in which the man clearly expressed the fact that the framers of the U.S. Government gave the future generations of people the 'gift of self-governance.' A man [or woman], is a self-governing entity, but a person who 'volunteer' to be a member of the U.S. Government, holds a civil duty and obligation to such a entity; also, a U.S. Citizen is the lowest member of the U.S. Government family.

    In short, terrorism, is defined as this from Etymonline.com: http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=terrorism&allowed_in_frame=0

    Don't agree with the headline. I view it as sensationalism and not news. The news media in general is far too consumed with generating revenue and buzz rather than doing straight laced, fact based journalism, in my opinion. I think it's really hurting the populace because they're not being properly informed on a lot of a very important and pressing issues. I think journalism should be above pushing borderline false stories just to make more money. It's pretty disappointing.

    If anything, I think people SHOULD see the video, to get a real sense of how brutal ISIS is and take them as a serious threat. Thankfully, we're starting to do so in the last few recent weeks. But trying to hide the video will only make ISIS more bold and make more "grand gestures" to try and get the world's attention. We need to take them seriously and develop a strategy of how to eliminate them as a terrorist threat to the U.S. and really the world.

    We all know how brutal ISIS is, in fact I think the media should not air anymore of their images, it's just propaganda to them.

    ISIS just wants to strike fear so they are going to do just that. No watching a beheading does not make me a terrorist it just reminds me of the kind of people I have to be aware of everyday I walk the Earth. You are always going to have terrorist groups that is just life.

    I am not seeing ISIS lasting for much longer with the whole world against them. I do wonder who is financing them though...

    I wish I could believe that, all I see is the US and the UN sitting on their hands and criticizing their actions but I don't see anyone making any moves against ISIS.
    We still don't know much about ISIS though, if they had a leader figure it would be much easier to take them down...

    I also think people should be allowed to see it. Many people who have seen it claim it to be likely faked as the beheading of westerners was was never actually shown, which is in stark contrast to other beheadings which were filmed unedited. If the idea is to instill terror, why cut out the most horrific part?

    I think you are allowed to watch Saudi Arabian beheadings, (22 last month I believe). Obviously these are ok as the Sauds are our friends. Interesting that Saudi Arabia, (massive funder of IS), is an Islamic Caliphate.

    McCain seems well connected with IS.

    Yes... I wonder where IS get their funding, training and equipment?

    I would lol, but I think crying is more adequate. The US are responsible for all wars in the world...
