Isil (ISIS): New Hostage is Alan Henning and now a 3rd British Hostage video
 

More sad news



[The White House is investigating reports of the beheading of US hostage Steven Sotloff by Islamic State militants in a video.

He was last seen in Syria in August 2013 until he appeared in a video released online last month by the Islamist group which showed the murder of fellow American journalist James Foley, who was also beheaded.]

..on ITV News, they said a British hostage is being held and will be murdered next....

Thats sad news



Evil Terror Group IS
needs to be stopped

Can't say things like that

You may get accused of Islamophic racism

Dear god.....when will this end? Horrific.

I was just about to post this.. saw the breaking news a minute ago.

The US won't give in to this kind of behaviour, thankfully.

Remember we can not condemn IS, we have to value their diversity

Just as the good folks in Rotherham did

Jesus

That's a fairly nonsense comparison to make, and completely unnecessary as well really when ISIS are being freely and basically universally condemned with nobody fearing any racism accusation

****ing disgusting >=[

They need bombing out of existence.

If there was a way to totally destroy them and not Koop anyone innocent, I'd be all for it

This.

Unfortunately innocent lives will be lost along the way.

ISIS has issued a direct threat to David Cameron by threatening to murder a British hostage after beheading a second US journalist.

A masked Islamic State fighter spoke with an English accent as he executed Steven Sotloff in a video released online today entitled 'A Second Message to America'.

He then holds up a British man kneeling in an orange jumpsuit and warns: he is next.

The disturbing threat leaves the Prime Minister with the chilling prospect of a British national murdering another in the name of ISIS.

Steven Sotloff's killer is believed to be the same man that murdered James Foley two weeks ago - known as 'Jihadi John'.

The British hostage is believed to be an aid worker that was based on the Turkish border of Syria working with victims of war.

David Cameron tonight hit out at the ‘absolutely disgusting, despicable’ murder of US hostage Steven Sotloff and called for a meeting of the Government's Cobra emergency committee tomorrow morning.

He said: 'If verified, this is a despicable and barbaric murder. My thoughts and prayers are with Mr Sotloff’s family and friends tonight as they deal with this appalling and tragic situation.


'As I have said consistently over the last few weeks, ISIL terrorists speak for no religion. They threaten Syrians, Iraqis, Americans and British people alike and make no distinction between Muslims, Christians or any other faith.


'We have already been working hard to keep British people safe and we will continue to do all we can to protect our country and our people from these barbaric terrorists. Tomorrow morning I will chair a COBRA meeting to review these latest developments.'

The Prime Minister was addressing Tory MPs in a private meeting in Parliament when gloating ISIS executioners released the footage.

At the end of the meeting of the Conservative backbench 1922 committee, Mr Cameron was seen looking at his blackberry before emerging to address journalists.

He said: ‘I’ve just seen the news. It is an absolutely disgusting, despicable act.’

In the video, the killer says: ‘I am back, Obama, and I am back because of your arrogant foreign policy towards the Islamic State, because of your insistence on continuing your bombings and ... on Mosul Dam, despite our serious warnings.

‘Just as your missiles continue to strike our people, our knife will continue to strike the necks of your people.’

The extremist also warns other governments against entering ‘this evil alliance of America against the Islamic State’.

It comes just 24 hours after Mr Cameron outlined a fresh crack down on extremists returning from the Middle East to wage war on Britain.

He told MPs in a Commons statement that police will be given the power to seize the passports of terror suspects trying to join jihadists fighting in Iraq and Syria

He also revealed the Government was considering new powers to force jihadis living in the UK to relocate, while airlines will be compelled to hand over passenger lists before flights take off.

In the video released tonight, Sotloff, 31, appears in a orange jumpsuit before he is beheaded by an Islamic State fighter.

The executioner tells the camera: 'I’m back, Obama, and I’m back because of your arrogant foreign policy towards the Islamic State.'


Sotloff, 31, from Miami, who freelanced for Time and Foreign Policy magazines, vanished in Syria in August 2013 and was not seen again until he appeared in a video released online last month that showed Foley's beheading.


In the new video that shows the killing of Sotloff, the executioner points his knife menacingly at the camera as he speaks.


Clad in the same black garb he wore during Foley’s execution, the killer has a pistol strapped under his arm in a shoulder holster. The black flag of the Islamic State can be seen waving in the background.


Sotloff calmly read a statement moments before his murder. ‘I’m sure you know exactly who I am by now and why I am appearing,' he says.


He adds to the camera: ‘Obama, your foreign policy of intervention in Iraq was supposed to be for preservation of American lives and interests, so why is it that I am paying the price of your interference with my life?’


While he speaks, a militant calmly holds a knife at his side and stands next to Sotloff.

Innocent lives are already being lost,Put an end to it imo.

Sadly, I think you say it as it is.I hate force and war of any kind but there does come a time when tolerance becomes a cop out.

These people are nothing else but barbarians at the very best for a description of them, they have no place in any society whatsoever.

What is needed in my view, is all Countries to universally come together to completely clear those in this vile organisation out of existence.
Even if that means dealing with some leaders we would prefer not to, to achieve that result.

No sitting around talking,waiting for strike after strike to hit more innocent lives, just get rid of the lot of them once and for all.
Never thought I would see the day when I even advocated anything like that.

I wish something like this could happen. Sadly I can't see it.

Would be nice though. These people dont give a damn about who they kill.

Executioner:
Taunting Obama: Sotloff's masked executioner tells the camera that the killing is in retaliation for US airstrikes in Iraq:

['I’m back Obama, and I’m back because of your arrogant foreign policy towards the Islamic state,
because of your insistence on continuing your bombings and… on Mosul Dam,
despite our serious warnings.
'You Obama, have but to gain from your actions but another American citizen.
'So just as your missiles continue to strike out people, our knife will continue
to strike the necks of your people.
'We take this opportunity to warn those governments that enter
this evil alliance of America against the Islamic State to back
off and leave our people alone']

I agree.A multi national team could be created from around the area to go in and try to rescue the prisoners and eradicate IS.Turkey,Saudi Arabia,Kurdistan even Iran and Syria with US/UK air assistance.I know it's not that simple as more of these Jihadists are coming up through the ranks but the main protagonists out there now could be dealt with as an example and hostages hopefully freed by special forces from these countries.These extremists need to be hit hard to show that what they're doing won't be tolerated.

I agree.

How long before Obama gets on his hands and Knees to Putin and admits he was right all along regarding Syria and Putin saves the day again and finishes them off, the script has been written for a long time, he's the only world leader who seems to have the right views on Radical Muslims and what to do with them

I suppose in reality though there will never truly be an end to it all without all out war, there isn't anyway you can bargain with people who are capable of that, they have been brainwashed into thinking they are carrying out a duty, if American airstrikes stopped like they demand they will always use something else a reason for more bloodshed.. Its a never ending cycle

been watching all kinds of reports and reading all kinds of different articles and it's actually worrying how high of a percentage there are of 'extremists' in this religion. A pretty scary thought

The world is a bad place to live at the moment,I think it is heading towards a possible WW3 in the first half of this century.Russia won't listen,They say one thing whilst doing the opposite,Jihadis want to kill us all,Israel and Iran are close to a war which would destroy the Middle East and would involve America and us and maybe Syria and Russia.North Korea have nukes and want to wipe America off the face of the earth,China another big nuclear state are playing games.The world is a scary place.

Russia aren't a problem, they see ISIS as much of a threat as anyone else in Europe does, they have warned us for years about what would happen regarding Syria and Iraq way back when Bush was president, NATO's attitude towards them is the problem right now, let Putin do his thing and focus on ISIS, better the enemy you know then the enemy you don't
