American folk singer hopes peace concert for ISIS will win over terror group

An Oregon folk singer plans to leave next week to serenade the Islamic State, and he intends to bring the black-clad barbarians a prayerful message of peace -- despite a warning from the State Department that his life could be in danger.

James Twyman, of Portland, Ore., told FoxNews.com he feels a "calling" and believes he can soften the hearts of the Islamist army known for beheading Westerners, throwing gays off of buildings and summarily executing innocent women and children.

"It's going to be pretty powerful," Twyman said, referring to his plan to have those attending and others around the world sing and pray for peace at the same time. "When people come together and focus on something in a positive way…there's scientific evidence that it can change things for the better."

Good luck.

Freedom means people have the right to do incredibly stupid things sometimes, even if it kills them.

Does he even realize his form of music is prohibited, according to the strict rules of Islam?

The Bluey Fezzy has migrated. So let it be written, so let it be done.

As I said over there, if ISIL says to come on in, I'm betting that nothing will happen. A safe passage promise is very serious to devout Muslims. These guys are touting themselves as the strictest of Muslims in a long, long time. To openly lie would put them in the same level as "infidels". But I'm also betting that ISIL will clearly warn these chuckleheads off, because they won't put up with the music of the Great Satan on their turf….
