ISIS Beheads British Aid Worker In "Message To Allies Of America"

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Rather disturbingly, ISIS had just announced the execution of another captive:

  • *ISLAMIC STATE RELEASES VIDEO SHOWING BEHEADING OF DAVID HAINES

As Bloomberg reports,

Video is similar to ones in which James Foley, Steve Sotloff were killed, SITE says.

 

Jihadist monitoring website comments on today’s beheading in statement on its website

 

British captive David Haines, who SITE says is beheaded in video, addresses U.K. PM Cameron in video

 

Video purportedly shows David Haines saying he holds David Cameron "entirely responsible" for his "execution" before being murdered

 

“You entered voluntarily into a coalition with the United States against the Islamic State, just as your predecessor Tony Blair did, following a trend amongst our British prime minister who can’t find the courage to say no to the Americans,” SITE quotes Haines as saying

 

SITE says executioner appears to be same as in previous videos.

“IS Beheads Briton David Haines, Threatens to Execute Another Briton, Alan Henning,” SITE Intel Group says on Twitter.

  • *ISLAMIC STATE THREATENS TO EXECUTE BRITISH HOSTAGE HENNING:SITE
  • *SITE SAYS BEHEADING VIDEO ENTITLED `A MSG TO ALLIES OF AMERICA'
  • *SITE SAYS VIDEO SIMILAR TO BEHEADINGS OF FOLEY, SOTLOFF
  • *SITE COMMENTS ON TODAY'S BEHEADING IN STATEMENT ON ITS WEBSITE
  • *HAINES ADDRESSES U.K.'S CAMERON IN VIDEO, SITE SAYS
  • *SITE SAYS EXECUTIONER APPEARS TO BE SAME AS IN PREVIOUS VIDEOS

*  *  *

Link to video can be found here (warning: extremely graphic)

*  *  *

As The Guardian reports,

In London, the Foreign Office has said it is aware of the video and “working urgently to verify” its content.

 

Haines, who was 44, was kidnapped last year. He had been in Syria for just three days when he was kidnapped and handed over to Isis militants.

 

The murder comes one day after the Haines’ family released a statement urging his captors to contact them.

 

The aid worker was taken while working for Acted in Syria in March 2013.

*  *  *

The 44-year-old Haines has a teenage daughter in Scotland from a previous marriage and a four-year-old daughter in Croatia from his present marriage.

Educated at Perth Academy secondary school, he has worked for aid agencies in some of the world's worst trouble spots.

He was in Libya during its civil war in 2011, working as head of mission for Handicap International, which helps disabled people in poverty and conflict zones around the world.

*  *  *

British PM Cameron responds:

  • *DAVID HAINES MURDER ’ACT OF PURE EVIL’: CAMERON ON TWITTER
  • *’WE WILL DO EVERYTHING TO HUNT DOWN THESE MURDERERS’: CAMERON
  • *U.K.'S CAMERON SAYS ACT WAS `DESPICABLE AND APPALLING MURDER'
  • *CAMERON SAYS CABINET MEETING ON MATTER TO BE HELD SUNDAY

1. We're not antisemitic. Palestinians are Semites also. In fact, in DNA terms, they are MORE Semitic than most Isrealis.

2. We're not anti-Jewish (not against the REAL Jews of the Torah), but anti-Zionist.

If you're shilling for Zionists, own up and raise your hand.

RT.com reported today that the family of Mr Foley, apparently beheaded recently, were visited three times by a man from the USG warning them that if they agreed, or attempted, to pay a ransom for their son, they would be arrested and charged with terrorism offences.

Saw that, I think (not sure though) that I read that Sotloff's family was given the same ultimatum. Falek pointed out that the French got one of theirs back a couple weeks ago by the family paying ransom.

I can see both sides of the ransom issue but to have THE GOVERNMENT threatening charges against the family for giving in and paying a ransom is over the top and that decision (to bring charges) has to come straight from the top.

How is the US trading of jihadis for a US serviceman not a form of randsom payment?

Sun, 09/14/2014 - 03:02 | 5215534 smacker
smacker's picture

Well, there's not much difference between them.

One could argue that exchanging the American serviceman was worse because it involved releasing a jihadist in exchange, theoretically creating a net increase in terror risks. If Foley's family had paid a ransom for him, that would have been it.

It seems there was another agenda at play in the USG. They wanted to see him murdered to give them the excuse to go to war against ISIS.

It's the third "decapitated man" of the series. 

I've looked each time on the internet to be sure it wasn't a fake or a joke.  Maybe I'm a bad researcher (if so, please, anyone, provide a link -  I don't mind if I look silly .. ).

But still, I HAVEN'T SEEN THE TINIEST DROP OF BLOOD (real or fake -- you know, that red thing that makes a tiny red bubble when you pick your thumb with a tiny needle while stitching and repairing your clothes (I still do that)).

Each decapitation, each time, same thing, no proof, nothing : they won't show any proof, just videos who look like teenager's jokes filmed in some improvised studio, or look like some kind of gross amateur SATIRES.  And from that, you must believe..  Well, we've reached the black bottom of some kind of Massmedia Akbar Utopia. 

At least, "they" could have the decency of adding fake blood ..

What happened to our minds ?

Even the "non-edited" videos on Best Gore don't have blood. I think the Foley video cuts from the first slice of neck, to the decapitated body with head resting on the back.

Western civilians - be they journalists, humanitarian aid workers, or something else - had better start being frank with themselves if they insist upon heading into areas controlled by ISIS. It is extremely dangerous to go at all and it is suicide to go unarmed. I realize that the rules probably prohibit noncobatants from bringing weapons into the country, but I'm sure there are plenty of AKs and .45 ACPs to be bought on the street corners in that part of the world. It would be wise to acquire one, and bring a friend or two to watch your back.

Bravest thing one could do in this situation, is to go out with some dignity and awareness, not like some headless chicken running and screaming.
If I would have the choice to die of old age or my mouth full of my enemy's blood, i would choose the latter, but this shit only happens in movies, which is also part of our daily programming. Life's more complex, even though big part of it is theater.
I'm not sure about these videos being staged for the very reason that it's ten times easier to cut a throat of one westener than to go through all the effort faking it? For what? Because your CIA handler said so?

At least ISIS  knows better than to behead a black guy.  Jesse Jackson and Al plus all the looting.  Who wants to deal with that.

Again we have taken the bait.  This will never end.  We will be fighting these radicals for the next who knows how many years.  So how does this end?  For every dictator we take out ie Khaddafi, Saddam, Assad etc.. there emerges a new and worse enemy than before.  When we got hit in Lebanon, back in the 80s Reagan was smart enough to get out.  Not the latest string of presidents though.  They don't get it.  If we have enough oil in Bakken fields then why do we worry about the oil in the middle east?  We should require that 80% or more of the US produced oil is sold to the US first and outside the US second.  Enough of this dependency on foreign sources for energy.  We have enough here and then some.

Or else we don't. Oil that is. Otherwise none of this makes sense.

Why use our own oil, when we can use other people's, first? A rule of empire: use others' resources before your own. Our damned national bird is a thief.

Thomas Jefferson lamented, "For my part, I wish the eagle had not been chosen as the representative of this country. He is a bird of bad moral character; he does not get his living honestly. You may have seen him perched in some dead tree where, too lazy to fish for himself, he watches the labor of the fishing hawk and, when that diligent bird has at length taken a fish and is bearing it to his nest for his young ones, the bald eagle pursues him and takes the fish. With all this injustice, he is never in good case."

What kind of terrorist asshole (Obama) sits on his fucking hands for 3 god-damned weeks, while ISIS beheads person after person? If the Bush men or Reagan were in office, the Middle East would be on fire within a few hours of the first beheading. What kind of guy broadcasts that he's going to be going after someone for weeks before he does it? Obama is one of the primary terrorists, here, folks. He needs to be removed asap.

you dont get it, thats exactly what ISIS wants to stretch america thin to the point of breaking. But i dont see an option other than ground troops to secure and regain lost ground. I listened to obamas speech and i got the impression he was out of his depth. Any practical leader would have made a deal with the irans and syrians to shut these guys down, but we are cutting off our nose to spite our face. By not doing this we have left ourselves holding a very weak set of cards.

The message here is potus has only threats. It has become pretty obvious the chain of command apparently ends where it begins, in the administration. They are impotent. Speeches are made and little to nothing happens.

I take it as a good sign that 'The Mighty Wurlitzer' plays but those that really count are no longer dancing to the music.

Oh you mean like after they blew up over 200 of our Marines in Lebanon?

We got our asses out of there right away, never did get any vengeance.

Nor should you believe--any of it.

"The publication of a video showing the murder of American journalist Steven Joel Sotloff surprised even the terrorists who supported the killing. Why? Because a little-known research group known as Site Intelligence spotted the video (and alerted the media) before even the jihadis did."

* *

"A profile of Site’s co-founder and director Rita Katz by the New Yorker magazine in 2006 described Site’s customers as 'people in government […] frustrated by how long it takes to get information through official channels' as well as 'people in corporate security and in the media'."

* *

"In 2004 Katz was commended by the FBI for her contributions to counterterrorism investigations, and in 2007 her group was credited with finding the first videos of Osama bin Laden after three years of silence."

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/who-are-the-site-intelligence-gr...

Trevor Aaronson wrote about Katz and other members of Terror!-Terror!-Terror!-(Inc.) in his book The Terror Factory (2013). From page 129:

"Kohlman is one of a cadre of self-appointed terrorism experts who today earn handsome paychecks pushing forward the idea that Islamic terrorism is a real and immediate threat in the United States. Among his peers is Rita Katz who finds a way to trace just about anything to Islamic terrorism."

Why is it the America doesn't do anything wrong? The British Don't do anythingthing Wrong?

If anything is done to an American or Brit is is Pure Evil? Even these guys that were beheaded....they might not have deserved death but then the innocent (women / children) and other non combatants are just collateral damage...................Droned to death.......Media is too one sided to believe .  There is no transparency in the Western Banking System that controls the West/east north and south.......Fuck the IMF.

Lets ask the question! IF REUTERS/CNN/BBC WORLD/AP did not air this, these idiots would get ZERO coverage and thus, people would not give a shit (hope no one died, as you never know with these hollywood production technqiues used by these people) and have no response. I'm not dumb down now, so FARK OFF with these propaganda excuses to wage war!

a bad script

jewish writers it would seem cannot write about the normal arab always extreme.

mel gibson would say it is because they have a dog in the fight

so say eye A.

 

herbert lom  from the sellers movie the lady killers  and inspector dreyfus from  the pink panther movie.

he was jewish and he played an arab as usual with blood soaked relish in the charlton heston movie el cid.

 

 

here we see the standard themes of conquests all very layed being after the post hitler times.

i especially like the burning of books bit very nazi.

the older zionists of the past where so subtle with the mind control compared to the mossad tools pumping out low level psy op shite today.

here we have a jewish actor dressed in black reading the script words of a zionist directed and produced by tribe members in a 1960s movie

evil arabs wanting to take over the world : )

some things never change

 

the Prophet has commanded us to rule the world. Where in all your land of Spain is the glory of Allah? When men speak of you they speak of poets, musicmakers, doctors, scientists. Where are your warriors? You dare to call youselves sons of the Prophet? You have become women! Burn your books! Make warriors of your poets! Let you doctors invent new poisons for our arrows. Let you scientists invent new war machines! And then, kill! Burn! Infidels live on your frontiers. Encourage them to kill each other. And when they are weak and torn, I will sweep up from Africa, and the empire of the One God, the true God, Allah, will spread, first across Spain, then across Europe, then the whole world!

Obama the great.  Now has England and quickly Australia are part of the Coalition. His foreign policy is working.   Long live the Democrats this November and the almighty dollar.

Why does all of this STINK to higher heaven.   Nothing like another fake beheading to get everyone lathered up and want WAR.  GET ISIS.

I wonder how many would believe me if I make a video of me lifting 1000lbs.

I spent an entire night looking at these sorry excuses for muslims speaking pro-isis crap. Some of these guys are something else. However what i have a hard time understanding is, some of these commentators and terrorists have twitter accounts and its not like the internet is some magical thing which we dont understand its inner workings. With all the computing expertise and satellite communications monitoring capabilities are we incapable for figuring out where these people are. I am beginning to think Obama wants ISIS to win
