US, UK eye rapper as British-born militant who beheaded journalist James Foley


American and British intelligence officials are eyeing a British-born
rapper as the militant who beheaded journalist James Foley.

A senior Western intelligence official told Fox News that 23-year-old
London rapper Abdel Majed Abdel Bary is the suspect believed to be
Foley's executioner.

U.S. intelligence officials are not commenting publicly on the
reports, but a well-placed source told Fox News that Bary's
Egyptian-born father was extradited from London to the United States
in 2012 for his alleged connection to Usama bin Laden and the 1998
U.S. Embassy bombings in Africa.

Bary traveled to Syria last year to fight with ISIS, the source said.
The Sunday Times and Sunday People identified Bary as a member of a
group of at least three British-born ISIS fighters known among former
hostages as "The Beatles."

The Sunday Times reported that MI5 and MI6, Britain's two major
intelligence agencies, had identified the man who did the brutal deed,
though he had not been publicly identified.

A counter terrorism source told Our Agents that the investigation was
moving forward and slowly eliminating individuals of interest.

The source also told our Agents that the FBI had opened a crisis file
shortly after Foley was kidnapped in northern Syria in November 2012
that included signals intelligence and interviews with former
hostages.
