Words may provide key clues about James Foley's killer

The tiniest details in the videotape of the killing of James Foley could provide the key clue. London officials say the man would most likely to be from London or southern England. They also stated that they way he was holding the knife, he was probably left handed and his hands, which were uncovered, gave another clue from the color of his skin. Experts also so his height and the kind of movements he makes. England and the U.S. are still looking from this person and will not stop until they do.

Why do you think the world won't  just work things out and become friends instead of killing each other and destroying things?

  • You replied a bit more for this topic. Ithink your questions could have been posed better but your topic as good!

  • 1) It is a natural process. Wars are apart of our nature, an innate end game to a series of outside factors. Sometimes wars are fought for a good cause, somethimes it is a necessary evil. 

    2) Just too different. Though things are getting better, everyone is playing a little nicer, we are still our own individual societies. The base personality traits and cultural beliefs between countries like the U.S. and North Korea are just too different to mix. It's like asking the radical groups like ISIS to sit down at a barbecue among a bunch of Catholics and blacks in the middle of southern U.S. They just won't do it.

    3) It shapes our world. Your history lessons, your technology, your maps and political feelings, have all been shaped by one thing; War. War is one of the things that drives human innovation and civilization. The cellphone you text on, the computer that you are reading this one, the internet that allowed us to talk like this, the GPS you used on your last vacation, are just a few examples of things wars have driven military innovation, which trickled down into the civilian market. A war is what put man on the moon and laid the seeds for the International Space Station. You can't avoid it.

  • Power and Money, Everyone wants more of these two things than the next person. The world will never have peace its just not possible theres always going to be a difference between people and some people will kill too prove the difference.

  • Yes. Say Europe trys to attack ISIS. They would probably win because Europe is a powerful country and has more money and power.

  • Because some countries have more power than others and one of the main reasons for the killings and such is to take over and control the power. 

  • Yes very true. People will always be violent because of money and the power.

  • Because you will always have violent people in the world. To make it peaceful that would mean not having people like that, and you can't stop every single person before they do something violent. All it takes is one act of violence like this to create trouble in the world.

  • Because there's gonna be hate no matter what. There's to many problems to work out that include hatred, debt and thing that happened in the past. Others may think to lets try and work it out, but other want war. 

  • You are both right. I think each country should just be isolated and pay of there debts. The could still trade to each other but can not cause trouble. There own country should choose what kind of government they want.

  • Because there is probably a grudge or debt that all the countries have on each other
