A new ISIS video was released today featuring British cameraman and hostage John Cantlie. He criticizes the bombing of Mosul University by the U.S. which he says happened about 3 months ago. The video was released by Amaq News Agency which while not an official ISIS news agency like al Hayat, is ISIS affiliated. [More...]

I don't know how long the video will remain on You Tube, but here it is (no violence)

[Added: Video since removed)

I'm glad he's still alive -- at least as of the date this video was shot. His hair is so flat -- as if it's been a long time since he has had a shower.

    I also am glad he is alive, even if they are just keeping him well enough for propaganda videos. Hope he survives to tell his story in freedom someday. Wish we put as much effort and risk into rescuing people as we did in killing them.

    that's keeping him alive.  "Can't Lie"  Somebody in that seventh circle of hell has a sense of humor.

    Back in the day. I did shoot some news shows, but didn't like it.  There were always people shooting people somewhere in the world and I could have chosen to go and film them.  After working with some of the news guys on sport shows, and listening to their stories, I decided to stay with sports.  Usually news cameramen don't make much money, but they offered me big bucks to go to Cambodia, and I wisely declined.
