You realize the whole reason they do it that way is to make the suffering as unbearable as possible, right?
The suffering would be simply unfathomable.:thumbsdown:
Hmmmm. Well, I'm def not saying it wouldn't be insanely terrible... But based in my personal experience from being blood choked during my years of BJJ, cutting off blood supply to the brain brings unconsciousness very quickly.
I would hope & assume once both sets of veins and arteries were cut, they'd bleed out and lose consciousness within 3-5s.
The shitty part is the many seconds of cutting it takes to reach those veins....
The ones I saw were really fast. It's almost like they have some kind of internal competition going on about who can post a video with the shortest time from first cut to severed head. Yeah we are talking unimaginable pain for the 20-30 seconds it takes them though. I can't think about it very long without getting queasy. My mind keeps wanting to put me in the place of the victim. It's fucking horrific.
I think they don't fully understand how they're making people feel with these videos. Sure, there's fear borne of imagining what it would be like to have that done to you, but there's also a sense of having viewed something evil, twisted, and malformed that needs to be stamped out whatever the costs. I liken it to opening a door and seeing a mother strangling her own infant. It's so awful you don't quite comprehend it at first, but then you feel a desperate need to make it stop. If you had a gun in your hand when you saw that you'd shoot the mother in an instant just to make it stop.
Sounds sick to ask but.. do the victims struggle and scream while it happens? like... how are they not trying to fight for their lives?
And I agree. Part of me knows that we can't really "fight" ISIS because they are not just some country's army. I am also generally against most of the US involvement in the US. However, the more and more I see and hear about it, it just plants a seed of hatred for all these ISIS people, Islam, and middle eastern folks in general.
I know it's wrong and misplaced, but I don't think I'm alone in it.
The conspiracy theorist in me hates to think that Fox news and other media places post these vids to slowly rile up support for a full scale invasion of Syria, etc.
