Isis: British Reporter John Cantlie in New Islamic State Hostage Video
Comment: The new ‘ISIS’ video is incredibly transparent. It plays right into the hands of the US/UK once again by allowing critics of Obama’s plan to be demonized as ISIS propagandists. There’s no better PR firm for Washington’s agenda in the middle east than ISIS itself!

Isis (now known as the Islamic State) has released a haunting video that shows John Cantlie, a British hostage and former war reporter for a number of British newspapers, pledging to expose the “truth behind the Islamic State”.
“Over the next few programmes, I am going to show you the truth as the Western media tries to drag the public back to the abyss of another war with the Islamic State,” he says.
The former reporter for The Sunday Times, The Sun and The Sunday Telegraph speaks in an orange jumpsuit behind a table in the three-minute video entitled Lend Me Your Ears.
Cantlie, believed to be 43, says how he will broadcast a series of videos that will aim to reveal the “manipulated truths” used by the Western media.
