MURDERERS hiding behind Islam MURDER British Citizen
Robertt S:
Islamic State militants have released a video claiming to show the beheading of British aid worker David Haines, in what British Prime Minister David Cameron has described as "an act of pure evil."
The 44-year-old Haines was abducted in Syria in 2013 while working for an international aid agency. The British government had managed to keep his kidnapping secret out of concern for his safety until the most recent video identified him as a captive.
Prime Minister David Cameron described the apparent murder as "an act of pure evil" in a tweet from his official account.
Sky News reports that Cameron is returning to Downing Street to chair a COBRA emergency response meeting.
The UK Foreign Office had said earlier in a statement that they were "working urgently to verify" the video.
"If true, this is another disgusting murder," the Foreign Office said in the statement.
"We are offering the family every support possible. They ask to be left alone at this time."
Islamic State militants have beheaded two American journalists, James Foley and Steven Sotloff, as well as Kurdish and Lebanese fighters, and posted video evidence online. At the end of the last video showing the beheading of American journalist Steven Sotloff, the Islamic State group threatened to kill Haines next and briefly showed him on camera.
In the video posted Sunday, the group threatened to kill another Briton. Both British men were dressed in orange jumpsuits against an arid Syrian landscape, similar to that seen in the Foley and Sotloff videos.
The SITE Intelligence Group, a U.S. terrorism watchdog, reported the video, which was also posted online by users associated with the Islamic State group.
The video was entitled "A Message to the Allies of America." Haines' purported killer, who appeared to be the same man speaking with a British accent as in the previous videos, tells the British government that its alliance with the U.S. will only "accelerate your destruction" and will drag the British people into "another bloody and unwinnable war".
Late Friday, the family of Haines issued a public plea urging his captors to contact them.http://www.foxnews.com/world/2014/09/13/isis-video-claims-to-show-beheading-british-hostage-david-haines/
It is funny how the media calls them militants, I think murderers is a more fitting title for these animals. Hopefully the world will wake up and decide to EXTERMINATE this plague from the face of the earth.

I know we try hard to keep the Forum free from Religious issues....based on the premise that your religion is your personal choice and that's OK...so far as you dont push it down other throats....but......
When, when, when is the World going to wake up, and act decisively to rid the World of these monsters.
All nations who claim to be civilised must rise up in unprecedented and violent response to this evil. 110% effort, whatever it takes should now be directed against them...with all the rage we can muster. They have lost the right to consume our Oxygen !!!!!
nuff said.

Far be it from me to say anything religious. ;D BUT......
Time is proving everything I have said about radical Muslims. Your life, my life means nothing to them. The only thing that is important to them is their values, their agenda and 77 virgins.
I don't really blame the radical Muslims, I mean I do but I don't, for what is going on today. I blame the western politicians who have ignored these people and their agenda for years thinking that this would never happen. So here we are in the midst of a crisis and these same politicians are standing there with their thumbs STILL up their butts saying, "how did this happen?" Yet we keep putting these morons back into office. I am disgusted with our whole political system.
We need a McArthur or a Patton to straighten this mess out.

My own opinion is that this has nothing to do with religion at all. Did Waco really have anything to do with religion or was its one man's lust for power.
The same is directed towards ISIL (I will not call them Islamic or State).
I personally could not believe the London accent I heard from the killer as he murdered both Americans in cold blood and then the British aid worker.
It was not that long ago when two so called muslims murdered Private Rigby outside Woolwich barracks and was trying to behead him when police arrived. Unfortunately the Police only wounded them and they survived to spend the rest of their pathetic life in jail. I think this current monster took notice of the public outrage at the way Private Rigby was murdered and realised just how much publicity he could achieve from it. We westerners do have an abhorent distaste against this kind of death maybe because it is not an instant.
They have no values of any note and as for 77 Virgins they are taking them whilst they are still alive! Women and girls are taken from their homes, the menfolk murdered. My God they are a throwback to a World long gone bye thousands of years ago (but maybe only 70 years or so in the case of Japan's invasion of China.)
Many Western born muslims have gone there as very unimportant nobodies but have found that they are still nobodies and will end up hated or dead nobodies.
We need strong leader ship in the world and unfortunately it does not come when so called leaders are looking ahead to see if he/she or his/her party will be re elected in 4 years time! But then is that not the kind of person that leads ISIL to commit countless atrocities!
In a way I am glad that I have no offspring or descendants that have to face this and worse in the world in the years to come.

Cant say I agree with you there Willy....it IS about religion...but not what any civilised person would consider the meaning of that word.
We are seeing a modernised version of a religious conflict that has gone on in some form or another since the time of Richard 1st...the Great Crusade. It is a conflict between religion that has evolved alongside the World vs one that has not and is still stuck in Medieval darkness and hate.
In fact it is eminently arguable that Catholicism is but a poorly disguised version of Roman Imperialism (which was what it was designed to be when Emperor Constantine invented it to prop up his failing Empire), whereas "other" Christian sects have evolved with the times and present a more palatable, rational and benevolent version of religion for those who feel they need it. So apart from Muslim fundamentalism and Catholicism, the World has grown in a religious sense into something more palatable.
Unlike the Japanese rape of civilisation in the 1930's to 40's which was a pure grab for power and resources...not a religious conflict by any stretch of the imagination.....even though it equalled (or exceeded) some of the earlier religious conflicts in it ferocity, brutality and horror.
Just my 2 cents worth.... ;D ;D ;D
