ISIS posted another video on YouTube today called Flames of War. It featured an America masked ISIS terrorist. This was first reported at the UK Daily Mail, and hasn’t gotten much attention an American media. I don’t know why. I know the media doesn”t want to make Obama look bad, but they’ve been pretty good in covering ISIS. The unidentified masked male terrorist in the video spoke good English with a non-specific accent.

The latest suspected ISIS propaganda film has been uploaded to YouTube and appears to feature a jihadist with an American accent.
The 55-minute ‘Flames of War’ video was posted online today and bears hallmarks of previous Islamic State tapes including Hollywood-style effects and bloodthirsty, call-to-arms language.
The clip bears the stamp of the al-Hayat Media Centre, ISIS’ English-language propaganda arm.A male voice in well-spoken English with a non-specific American accent provides the voice-over, using dialogue seemingly hijacked from a blockbuster action film.
He says: ‘In the face of the dark wave of the crusader force, the historical land of two rivers bore life to a mission that would transform the political landscape of the world.’
Almost an hour follows of battle scenes where militants wield rocket launchers, the footage manipulated with special effects. Piles of bloodied corpses are spliced with speeches by President Obama and former president George W Bush.
The tape builds to shaky camera footage of the extremists’ raid on the 17th Division air force base in Raqqa, Syria under the cover of darkness.
