this earth and treasure their memories.

Foley (October 18, 1973 – c. August 19, 2014) was an American journalist
and video reporter. While working as a freelance war
correspondent during the Syrian
Civil War, he was abducted on November 22, 2012, in northwestern Syria. He was
beheaded in August 2014 purportedly as a response to American airstrikes in Iraq,
thus becoming the first American citizen killed by the Islamic State of Iraq and the
Levant (ISIL).
Before he became a journalist, Foley was
an instructor for Teach For America. In 2009, he became an embedded
journalist with USAID-funded
development projects in Iraq, and in 2011 he wrote for the military newspaper Stars and Stripes in
Afghanistan, and GlobalPost in Libya. There, he was captured by Gaddafi
loyalist forces and held for 44 days. The next year, James Foley was captured
in Syria while he was working for Agence France-Presse and GlobalPost.
