Regarding the production values, why would it NOT be done well?

It's not like some lighting, a decent camera and some microphones cost a fortune now. Many of the jihadists are from UK/US/etc, many of them had jobs doing various things. It's not outside the realm of possibility that some of them happened to have experience as a film crew... In fact, the guy supposidely doing the beheading was a rapper - not impossible for him to have access to a film crew that happened to also be into that whole thing....

If it was a conspiracy and fake, why the fuck would they suddenly make this video COMPLETELY different then any other beheading/terrorist clip? It would just draw attention. It's entirely possible they cut out the actual beheading (although i've heard from people that the entire uncut video is online too). The cut version might be there to make it pg13 exactly so less sites remove it and it gets the message across to more people - "I watched it, it's not that bad" opens more people to watch it then "it was fucking insane man, blood everywhere".

I think it's real, and as for the production values - for lack of better words "nothing wrong with having a little pride in your work"...
