Pope Francis calls family of James Foley who was beheaded by ISIS Muslim terrorists. The pope offered his condolences to John and Diane Foley, the parents of James Foley. What about Obama? He’s been too busy golfing and vacationing to bother even calling John and Diane Foley. Obama made a tepid statement about the beheading, claiming it was not Islam, but hasn’t bothered to even call James Foley’s parents to offer his condolences. Of course, arriving at the golf course eight minutes after giving his phony press conference should tell you all you need to know about how much Obama cares about ISIS beheading Americans.

Pope Francis called the parents of slain journalist James Foley on Thursday afternoon to console them their loss, the Vatican said.
In the telephone call, the pope offered his condolences to John and Diane Foley of Rochester, New Hampshire, and assured them of his prayers, a Vatican spokesman said.
A gruesome video released Tuesday showed James Foley being beheaded by an Islamic militant. The Islamic State of Syria and Iraq, also known as ISIS, said the execution was in retaliation for U.S. airstrikes on the Islamic group’s positions in northern Iraq.
Foley’s captors had also demanded a ransom of $132.5 million from his parents and political concessions from the United States.
