British PM vows justice after ‘act of pure evil’
British Prime Minister David Cameron said this weekend that the apparent beheading of British aid worker David Haines by Islamic State militants was an “act of pure evil” and vowed to “hunt down these murderers and ensure they face justice.”
Cameron made the comments late Saturday after a video emerged online released by ISIL or ISIS of a man resembling the 44-year-old Scot kneeling beside a masked militant who speaks in British-accented English. Britain’s Foreign Office said Sunday it believes the video to be genuine.
The video, which goes on to show Haines’ brutal slaying, is similar to footage released by ISIL showing the killings of American journalists James Foley and Steven Sotloff.
Haines is at least the third westerner murdered by the Islamic extremist group under exceptionally barbaric circumstances and his death comes as Washington has stepped up a campaign to enlist allies to combat the organization operating across large parts of Iraq and Syria.

Maybe Cameron will now stop trying to placate Muslims by playing both ends against the middle and actually send a few fighters and bombers against ISIS to back up the Americans.
Not that this will fix anything festering for the last 100 years, nevertheless, it might be a good idea for Brits to remember ‘they want to kill you’.

Maybe Cameron will figure out that he’s no better at playing whack-a-mole than Obama is.

Maybe someone will release some pictures of a funeral or wedding after a U.S Drone strike and we will realize that we are not really that perfect after all. And maybe this is not our fight and perhaps we should not even be there.

Instead of the lesson being to stay out of the Middle East, there seems to be a belief that they have the “right” to be there… whether the Arabs like it or not.
So, let’s murder a bunch of innocent Arabs because one British guy is supposed to have been murdered by an Arab.
The British talk the talk, but the Americans are the war-mongerers.
For all anyone knows, it is just another false flag attack (see Vietnam, Gulf War, 9/11, Libya, Syria).
But, Americans are trash who look for any excuse to invade and murder Arabs (and Libyans and Cambodians, and Hawaiians, and Sudanese, and Colombians).
The narco-state, the rogue state, the state-sponsored terrorists, the Wall Street regime, the xenophobes, and the genocidal monsters all describe the United States… the Americans.
History will show Americans as being the greatest evil the world has ever known.

Pen, both sides are in the wrong who gives a rat’s ass at this point. We are talking global survival. Our world is unraveling. TPTB on the surface pretend nothing is wrong but it is obvious through their actions we see now that they are reacting to a new paradigm of descent. Politically correct is out “Realpolitik” is in. Politically correct and other romantic notions are now history as a reality now it is just for show. Maybe these higher values can be rediscovered at a lower level of complexity and organizational size i.e. community, tribe, and family. The whole system is corrupt, manipulated and unholy. Bad blood will seek to destroy bad blood. War is the only course for bad blood. You are right the US and its western power friends are no better than the Muslim fanatics when all is said and done. Killing is killing WTF! A drone is no different than a knife but our hypocrite TPTB cry crocodile tears over one man getting his throat cut when 20 at a time get their limbs blown apart. What is the logic of that?

ZeroHedge has a very good article today on the rush to war against ISIS. Should be read with an open mind. When you read the stats on SA beheadings you might want to read it more than once.

Why is it that when Saudi Arabia beheads someone it is part of Islamic Sharia law, but when IS beheads someone it is an act of pure evil. If beheading people is cause to start a war, then Saudi Arabia has a far larger body count then the Caliphate does.

Maybe because ISIS beheads reporters and aid workers.

Simon, I bet Noob secretly has an American Flag hung in his closet he says the Pledge of Allegiance to.

I have to explain to the American idiots how to use their own language…
phobia… an exaggerated usually inexplicable and illogical fear of a particular object, class of objects, or situation
Nothing illogical or inexplicable about the murder fantasies and genocides Americans have for Arabs, Africans, and Native peoples all over the Earth.
Americans have earned the wrath of the Earth. And, they are going to get it and get it good.

PM “vows justice?”
Hmmm … I’m not entirely sure that ‘justice’ is a commodity which we will see increasing supplies of in the coming years.
Plantagenet on Sun, 14th Sep 2014 2:51 pm
@Paulo
Reporters and aid workers overseas get murdered all the time. It isn’t usually a casus belli that results in the US going to war.
Try to think logically instead of emotionally. Surely you don’t think the US should start bombing people in foreign countries every time a US national gets murdered there?
Plantagenet on Sun, 14th Sep 2014 3:25 pm
When the war drums start beating, people lose their heads. They get caught up in the war fever, and logical thought becomes impossible.
Its fascinating to watch as Obama started beating the drum and marching the country into another war, and the sheeple mumbled yes—of course—now I want war—and then fell rapidly into line behind him.

I have something important to say.
I say that evil will win as long as there are more bad guys than good guys. Join the good guys. Join the NRA, the John Birch Society and Act for America now before no one is allowed to be a good guy. Our freedoms are not guaranteed to those that want to destroy those freedoms and deny them to the rest of us. As a matter of fact, the very nature of our freedoms demand that they be specifically denied to anyone that does not want us to have them. Live by the golden rule, not Sharia.
I also say that wearing or displaying “religious” or “patriotic” stuff that shows what we claim to believe isn’t really a matter of life or death but neither should we be prohibited from doing it if we want. However, since atheists and Muslims claim to be offended at Christians and Jews wearing or displaying such things and demand that we not do it or be fined or punished in some way we seriously need to demand that they live by the same rules. Muslims must stop wearing items of clothing or accessories that identify them as Muslims or make them look like Muslims and they must remove all Muslim symbols from their homes and mosques and build their mosques so that they don’t look like mosques etc. Also, when out in public they must not let anyone see them avoid eating or touching pork or requiring food that doesn’t comply with their particular beliefs. And, if they believe that it’s acceptable to burn the American flag or pictures of Jesus etc. then it should be acceptable for anyone to burn their flags and pictures of Muhammad and their Koran etc. Agree? Let’s hear it for “fair play.”
Makati1 on Sun, 14th Sep 2014 10:32 pm
All I can say is: If they can put Godzilla in the middle of New York City, or the special effects of any other movie these days, a beheading would be child’s play to create. I do not believe most of what I see on TV these days and certainly nothing from the US Ministry of Propaganda. Too easy to fake. Took much brainwashing.
Welch on Sun, 14th Sep 2014 11:09 pm
Mak, you’re thinking.
Davy on Mon, 15th Sep 2014 6:28 am
These beheadings are real and expect more. I would also say these folks have thousands of expats ready to head home and infiltrate their host. Many are known and will be interdicted but many will slip by. Expect some terrorism in the west soon. We probably will have to fire up Gantanamo again. This war on terror will only end when BAU ends.
Makati1 on Mon, 15th Sep 2014 7:35 am
Ah yes, you were there weren’t you Davy. You saw it happen.
I also saw the twin towers go down live on TV, but that does not mean I believed the propaganda put out as to the methods and the guilty parties. Too many false flags that just seem to happen at the right time and place for the last 100 years. No airliner brought down two buildings in a controlled demolition mode. And certainly they didn’t bring down building 7. But go ahead and pretend…
JuanP on Mon, 15th Sep 2014 9:15 am
I could never understand why people react so strongly to beheadings. It is one of the fastest, most efficient, most definitive way to kill someone. I consider it quite merciful.
As far as all these white guys getting beheaded over there, in the Middle East, goes, I consider it Darwinian selection. If they were stupid enough to be there, they deserve what they get.
I know as a fact no middle Eastern muslim fanatic is going to cut my head because I let them live in peace in their homes.
I strongly suggest to all people to live surrounded by family, friends, and others of their same race, ethnicity, and language, if they can, and also to go out of their way to befriend and know well all their neighbors. Call me racist, if you must, but please understand it is only an observation of human nature. There is us and there is them, it’s how the brain sees it whether we want it or not. I wish it was not so.
Davy on Mon, 15th Sep 2014 10:01 am
Juan, now more than ever your advice is true. Race and ethnicity problems are going to surface more and more as the descent gathers pace. You are not at all racist and speak in practical terms related to survival. Part of one’s personal sustainability and resilience will come from the community, tribe, and family. In any one of these groups repair any problems as best you can and like Juan says befriend neighbors. You all are going to need each other. The lone wolves will not survive long. It has always been the case that humans find strength in small numbers.
GregT on Mon, 15th Sep 2014 6:46 pm
I’m going with Makati on this one. These last three ISIS beheading videos have been staged. Even analysts for the British police say as much.
“The clip, which apparently depicts Mr Foley’s brutal beheading, has been widely seen as a propaganda coup for Islamic State miltant group.
But a study of the four-minute 40-second clip, carried out by an international forensic science company which has worked for police forces across Britain, suggested camera trickery and slick post-production techniques appear to have been used.”
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/journalists/bill-gardner/11054488/Foley-murder-video-may-have-been-staged.html
The timing is also highly suspect. Exactly when the US and British governments are looking for public support in running air strikes on Iraq and Syria.
We have all seen these tactics used before. Unplugging of incubators in Kuwait for example. 911 and the never ending war on terror, Saddam’s weapons of mass destruction, and Assad’s use of chemical weapons, are a few more that immediately come to mind.
These guys may have been killed, but when, and by whom, remains to be proven.
GregT on Mon, 15th Sep 2014 6:59 pm
Oh ya, and while we’re on the subject of beheadings. Over 120,000 people have been brutally murdered across the border in Mexico over the past 6 years, of which a large percentage have been beheaded. Hundreds of videos can be watched in full gory detail online. Why is the US administration, and media, not drawing attention to these travesties?
Northwest Resident on Mon, 15th Sep 2014 9:17 pm
GregT — Maybe the reason the MSM isn’t focused on the Mexico killings is because those killings don’t justify military operations in oil-rich parts of the world? Just guessing… The MSM and those who own and operate the MSM probably aren’t interested in revving up controversy over the “War On Drugs” at this particular time either. They have other fish to fry, for the moment.
GregT on Mon, 15th Sep 2014 9:58 pm
NWR,
My question was purely rhetorical. My take on the recent ISIS beheadings? They are more than likely staged events to gain public support to justify further destabilization of the ME.
They have no similarities to any other Islamist beheading videos that I have ever seen before, and I have seen many. No AKs, no Ala Ahkbars, no cheesy music, and no unprofessional one megapixel blurry video. Not to mention the first of the three beheading videos which clearly shows the ‘executioner’ sawing back and forth on the neck of the victim 6 times with no sign of blood, accompanied by the gurgling sound commonly heard after the victim’s wind pipe has been severed.
I call bullshit on these supposed beheadings.
