ISIS reportedly wants $1 million for beheaded hostage James Foley’s corpse

I thought ISIS had a shitton of money already?
Sure, lets give them $100000000...
...IN BULLETS!
Frankly, I wouldn't be shocked if ISIS is getting through its money a lot faster than they thought they would. I'm sure they probably have some ex-Taliban or something, but I doubt they have much experience with running a 'country'.

That said, $1 million? You've literally managed to sound more ridiculous than Dr Evil.
[QUOTE=Starship;46690484]I thought ISIS had a shitton of money already?[/QUOTE]
Consider this:
They're a really organized militia, but they still need money to run the shitload of infrastructures.
They need to pay their fighters
They need money to support their cities for the necessities, food, water, shelter etc.
They probably need money to pay for their black market arms
They need money to influence people from western countries to join them
Even though they're rich as fuck, they still need a lot of money to keep themselves stable, hence, most of their hostages have a big value on their heads.
That's way too high. The body is probably rotten by now so the organs are worthless. As well as a gaping hole in his neck, the value plummets considerably.
those guys are dicks
How much for just the head
Sold! Now do you want that in bullets or bombs?
give them monopoly money
1 Million Dollars? For a rotted corpse?

[QUOTE=LoLWaT?;46691108]Give them counterfeit money, they check every single stack and put it into their own container that they brought with them and possibly just execute whoever's there at the hand off if they act suspicious, ???????????
Even easier on them if some sort of middleman were being used to handle the transaction, so none of their own would have to be face to face with any soldiers.

Or I don't know. Do we make live tracking devices that can be sewn into fake dollar bills?[/QUOTE]
Coat the bills in a radioactive tracer and then follow whatever trial that leaves, I guess.
Raise the stakes and five them a Zimbabwean Trillion Dollar Bill

Record their screams and gift a tape to Foley's family.[/QUOTE]
it doesn't matter if you're "normally humanist" if you're still willing to go out of the way to, in detail, describe what you would want to do/happen to them. this is fucked up and surreal, why are people like this? by assumption you are equally as bloodthirsty as them no matter how literal you are about this statement.

We're all members of the same species, and all capable of barbarism. Pretending they've got some sickness that you and I don't won't change that. Every person, too, has a point past which they'd give in to bloodthirst. Even you.

So like 6 shots?

yeah dude, nothing gives closure like hours of audio of peoples agonized death-screams

That's exactly what they think of us, which is why it doesn't hurt their conscience
don't stoop to their level

It would take extraordinary amount of work to stoop to their level.

like perhaps submerging someone in burning hot pitch and recording their screams to listen to later?

We don't pull the legs off of cockroaches and the wings off flies.
We don't kill even the lowliest of vermin slowly for sadistic pleasure.
Instead we try to do away with them as neatly as possible, no matter how much we hate them or are annoyed by them, we kill them as nicely as possible. Hell, if there are effective non-lethal methods of removing their presence from our lives and habitat, we usually prefer that. Why? Vermin do what they do because it's their nature, they can't help what they are and we recognize that. ISIS is beneath any pest, they are [i]very[/i] capable of being better than this yet they persist in the most awful behaviors and commit terrible atrocities against truly innocent people. While I agree with you that sadistically torturing them to death for petty revenge is right on their level, I truly wish to see every supporter of the Islamic State eliminated from existence. They deserve [i]everything[/i] they get, they volunteered to be sick, uncivilized barbarians hiding behind religion to exert their impotent fantasies on women, children, and "non-believers." I wouldn't be okay torturing them, but if I met one of them I wouldn't hesitate to gut that son of a bitch. Fuck them.

This is it, really. The people who killed Foley didn't even have ignorance to hide behind. The guy who sawed through his neck had an English accent - meaning he likely grew up in the West. No, they chose this. And in my opinion, they deserve to reap what they've sown in full.

You give these guys too much credit, I don't think they'd be smart enough to know to do that.

Why not coat them in actual radioactive waste and just give them cancer?
"Huh, guys, why are you wearing those suits?"
"Oh these? Uhm, no big reason.. We are expecting bombs! Yes! We are expecting you guys to bomb us, yes thats it!.."
