The bully in the picture speaks some Arabic. He looks to be a little thick around the middle, don't you think? He must be nothing more than a guard with a gun. Sedentary, something an American would understand.
He justifies his anger by stating the Syrian soldiers were raining terror on the people of ar-Raqquah, then he brings in support by the Brothers of the Mujahideen. Self-righteous.
I kind of don't get it. Why the masks? As if their identity would do what? I suppose
the USA might cancel passports, but, at the same time passport photos with the
Treasury Department would help reveal who he is. The passport process under the
previous administration became far more invasion to one's private life, supplying
a high school record, IDs of driver license and/or college ID, even religious
organizations that would identify him as an American.
He doesn't wear eyeglasses, appears to be Caucasian, mostly by the skin of his
hand while holding the gun. His facial features while talking and stretching the
mask fairly secure around his head gives his silhouette away. If I were an FBI
artist I would think the shape of his face, the size of his nose the placement of his
eyes and the movement of his mouth would be a darn good start.
He is about 5' 10" along with his peers in the line while preparing to assassinate child soldiers. Weight about 175-180 maybe.
He is fairly typical of the self-righteous members of the Islamic State. They are
powerful because they believe they have a corner on living according to the
Quran enforced by weapons that kill unarmed young men. The men that are to
die are younger than he. He should be ashamed. He is pretty much a punk like the rest of the lousy bastards.
I realize the Syrian Civil War has been brutal in it's own right, but, even hard core Hezbollah doesn't do this. It is not their style. Hezbollah likes to make an impression by blowing stuff up and costing a single leader in Lebanon his life. They don't hide from sight, they simply carry out an act of murder and the authorities are left to decide who did it.
I read a report in the media today stating that IS and Iraq fighters were dying. But, both sides were taking on causalities. The bombing missions have worked, IS no longer has an advantage. Not that I think it is right they are killing Iraqis, but, they are no longer slaughtering them.
The Middle East has always been rough territory. But this? I don't know that the Crusades were as bloody as IS trail of blood. And I mean that.
The IS executioner has to be about 30+ years old according to his voice, but, not much more than that. He conducts himself like an American. He wasn't born in the south. Americans are more learned than most other countries and can develop leadership easily when called upon. It is not difficult for him to do his job, he has power over those surrounding him by the weapon he carries. He is a hair bit taller than his fellow assassins probably because he was better nourished in his growing years. His skin color is darker than the others with him. He's black. The trigger finger in the very last scene shows skin color darker than his nail bed.
This is a pure guess; Not New England, Not Midwest, ? California ? - I don't think so, how about Newark, former inmate. That is the best I got.
He is the oldest of the group, be they prisoners or peers. Once a composite sketch is made distribute it among police forces. He's got a record.
