I got married once, no sense making more women suffer. My hand thinks I'm a dirty-sIut so time doesn't matter.
How many times have you been tricked into getting out of the vehicle only to see the tail-lights go over the horizon? (per week if single digit numbers is what you are working with today)

What the hell was McCain think he was doing by going back there? (besides giving lessons on how to fake stuff up) Did those reporters that were kept for a few yewrs (on this there 2nd capture, the 2 years in Libya must have been a primer rather than a pension notice)
If 'we' go into panic mode over one 'valuable' life imagine if we threatened one of them with, . . . . you know, . . . . being beheaded? Surely they would run into the very sea.

If you mean the ISIS folks or their supporters I doubt they'd care much. They're used to suicide attacks and seem to want to die in a fight. Gets them a one way ticket to their paradise.

More beheadings = more retaliation, which is what they want. Seriously, we're giving them the attention they need/crave/desire. Sadly we have to pay attention to them because leaving them alone isn't an option either.

Damned if we do, damned if we don't. I feel for the families of these people butchered by these monsters. For trying to be decent humans, these attention wh0res have ended the lives of people trying to help their own. Think it proves just how little they care even for their own people. I get the reluctance to go to war but at this point it's heading into "no other choice" land.

Alan Henning was a taxi driver from Salford, Greater Manchester, not far from where I live in Bolton.

Last year Mr Henning and his group of Muslim friends drove from Bolton to Syria to deliver aid to civilians.



They raised money to purchase medical equipment, including defibrillators, stethoscopes and oxygen, and former NHS ambulances, for a hospital at Idlib, in north-west Syria.

After helping to raise the funds, he is said to have insisted on joining the convoy rather than spend Christmas 2013 with his wife and two teenage children at their home in Eccles in Salford.

Last month, one of the organisers, Kasim Jameel, a taxi driver from Bolton, Greater Manchester, said "Alan is a man who is full of compassion and we are just praying to Allah that he is released safe and sound.

"We are liaising with the authorities and we do not want to say anything which might put him in any further jeopardy or which will inflame the situation. I could tell a lot of stories about the good that Alan has done and about how, as a non Muslim, he has helped Muslims who have suffered in the conflict.

"He is motivated to help others – not just by helping the convoy but by loads of other things as well.

"He is the nicest of nice guys who has done so much to help other people. He is just a normal bloke, an everyday taxi driver who wanted to do good. We are thinking about him all the time and praying that he will be allowed home to his family."


Kasim Jameel, left, with a group of the volunteers, including Alan Henning, before they set off for Syria from Bolton on 20 December 2013

The convoy set off from Bolton on 20 December, last year, with Jameel telling his local newspaper, the Bolton News, that they had been inspired by the death of Abbas Khan, an orthopaedic surgeon from London, who died in Syrian government custody earlier that year.

It was the second convoy organised by the same group: the previous March its members joined a group of Muslims from Scotland to take seven ambulances, medical equipment and baby milk to Idlib.

A BBC journalist who met Henning while making a documentary about aid convoys to Syria described him as a likeable and amusing man.

Catrin Nye said he told her that he had been deeply moved by his first trip to Syria. "It had been a life changing experience," she said.

"He had handed out the goods. He described holding the children ... and how that really affected him. He told me he had to go back."

The vehicles were halted by masked gunmen after crossing the Turkish border and Henning, 47, was separated from his friends, according to accounts they gave to journalists after they were released by the group and able to return to Britain.

During his capture, the Bolton Council of Mosques organised mass prayers for the town's Muslims to pray for Alan's safe return.

Before his murder, Mr Henning tells the camera: 'I am Alan Henning. Because of our Parliament's decision to attack the Islamic State I as a member of the British public will now pay the price for that decision.'

If IS think that this beheading will stop the British military's attack on them they are completely and utterly deluded. All this is going to do is step up Britain's military campaign against ISIS and could well lead to British troops on the ground.

'We will bring these brutal and repulsive killers to justice': David Cameron leads international condemnation of ISIS following beheading of Alan Henning

David Cameron vows to hunt down terrorists behind Mr Henning's killing
Nick Clegg and Ed Miliband also condemn video posted on social media
Muslim leaders dub Henning a 'British hero' and say murder is against Islam

David Cameron has branded Islamic State terrorists who killed British aid worker Alan Henning 'brutal and repulsive' as the Prime Minister led a wave of global revulsion over the murder.

He vowed to 'hunt down' and bring to justice the man who wielded the knife, who has become known as Jihadi John - as Barack Obama, Nick Clegg and Muslim leaders all spoke of their disgust.

Mr Henning, 47, a father-of-two, was filmed being murdered in a video posted on the internet three weeks after he was last paraded in front of a camera.

In a strongly-worded statement, Mr Cameron said: 'We will do all we can to hunt down these murderers and bring them to justice.'

He added: 'My thoughts and prayers tonight are with Alan’s wife Barbara, their children and all those who loved him.

‘Alan had gone to Syria to help get aid to people of all faiths in their hour of need.

'The fact that he was taken hostage when trying to help others and now murdered demonstrates that there are no limits to the depravity of these ISIL terrorists.


David Cameron received a security briefing this morning before calling the slaying of Alan Henning 'completely unforgivable'


Aid worker Alan Henning, 44, a father-of-two, was kidnapped by Islamist rebels on Boxing Day last year

This morning, Downing Street revealed that Mr Cameron was meeting with officials from the intelligence agencies, the military and the Foreign Office at his official country residence Chequers, in Buckinghamshire, to discuss the killing.

Later this morning, he called the slaying 'completely unforgivable' adding that there was 'no level of depravity to which they will not sink'.

'No appeals made any difference,"Mr Cameron told Sky News.

'The murder of Alan Henning is absolutely abhorrent, it is senseless, it is completely unforgivable. Anyone in any doubt about this organisation can now see how truly repulsive it is, and barbaric it is,' he said of IS.

When asked whether he believed the extremists would kill more of their Western hostages, Cameron suggested the only way to stop them was through military action.

'The fact that this was a kind, gentle, compassionate and caring man who had simply gone to help others, the fact they could murder him in the way they did, shows what we are dealing with,' he said.


Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg took to Twitter to praise Mr Henning, saying he worked to 'selflessly help those in need'

'This is going to be our struggle now. ... We must do everything we can to defeat this organisation. We must take action against it. We must find those responsible.'

Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg praised Mr Henning on Twitter, saying: 'Sincere condolences to Alan Henning's family. Barbaric actions of ISIL are held in complete contempt.

'We are resolved to defeat this evil. Alan Henning was a man moved to selflessly help those most in need and we should remember that above all else at this difficult time.'

Labour leader Ed Miliband said: 'The murder of Alan Henning by ISIL is appalling and barbaric.

'He was an aid worker, helping those in need. Those who killed him have revealed only their lack of humanity and brutality.

'My thoughts and deepest condolences are with his wife Barbara, his children and all those who knew him.

'We will do everything we can to support the efforts of the Government to bring those guilty of this terrible act to justice.'

U.S. President Barack Obama said: 'The United States strongly condemns the brutal murder of United Kingdom citizen Alan Henning by the terrorist group ISIL.

'Mr Henning worked to help improve the lives of the Syrian people and his death is a great loss for them, for his family, and for the people of the United Kingdom.

'Standing together with our UK friends and allies, we will work to bring the perpetrators of Alan's murder - as well as the murders of Jim Foley, Steven Sotloff and David Haines - to justice.

'Standing together with a broad coalition of allies and parteners, we will continue taking decisive action to degrade and ultimately destroy ISIL.'

The American ambassador to the UK Matthew Barzun said this morning: 'Today, we stand with the UK in joint determination, resolve and commitment to achieve justice for Alan Henning.'

Imams had joined forces before Mr Henning's execution to appeal to the terrorists to release the former taxi driver from Salford, who left his job to travel to Syria to take help to victims of its civil war.

Mohammed Shafiq, chief executive of the Ramadhan Foundation, a Muslim charity, called Henning 'a British hero.'

His 'barbaric killing is an attack against all decent people around the world,' Shafiq said.

Dr Shuja Shafi, Secretary General of the Muslim Council of Britain, said: 'This reported murder is a despicable and offensive act, coming as it does on the eve of the Muslim festival of Eid Al-Adha.

'It is quite clear that the murderers of Alan Henning have no regard for Islam, or for the Muslims around the world who pleaded for his life.


Barack Obama condemned the killing, and reiterated his promise to 'degrade and ultimately destroy' ISIS

'Alan was a friend of Muslims, and he will be mourned by Muslims. In this period of Hajj and this festival of Eid, Muslims remember the mercy of God and the emphasis God places on human life.

'Alan Henning's murderers have clearly gone against that spirit of Islam. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family.'

Hanif Qadir, founder of Active Change Foundation – the organisation behind the #Notinmyname campaign said: 'The fact that they have chosen to commit this barbaric act on the eve of the Eid al-adha, a global expression of forgiveness and mercy among Muslims, only demonstrates the extent of the evil and barbaric nature of these criminals.

'They have not shown any ounce of mercy or compassion and are therefore totally against Islam and are hell-bent on killing innocent individuals and must be stopped.

Mr Henning worked to help improve the lives of the Syrian people and his death is a great loss for them, for his family, and for the people of the United Kingdom.

Barack Obama

'As a British Muslim I urge every other Muslim in the UK to stand up and refute these terrorists and distance themselves from this brutality and false Islam.'

In footage released on social media, Mr Henning is shown being beheaded by Jihadi John, the Islamist fighter who was also behind the killings of U.S. journalists James Foley and Steven Sotloff, and British aid worker David Haines.

Former Foreign Office minister Baroness Warsi, the first Muslim woman in the Cabinet, tweeted her condolences, saying the Mr Hennning was the 'true martyr.'

Liberal Democrat party president Tim Farron said: ‘Alan Henning should be remembered for what he was - a kind hearted, selfless man who wanted to help others. My prayers are with his family.’

Inspire, an anti-extremist campaign group of British Muslim women, described Mr Henning's death as 'an affront to all Muslims across the world'.

Co-director Sara Khan expressed her 'heartfelt condolences' to the family of the aid worker, who she described as an 'amazing man, a man of courage, a man of dignity, a man of integrity'.

She said: 'The only thing that the killing of Alan has achieved is greater revulsion for ISIS and the fact that more people from across our world, within our communities, Muslims and non-Muslims alike, are united in their stance against their barbarity and inhumanity.


Mohammed Shafiq, chief executive of the Ramadhan Foundation, a Muslim charity, called Alan Henning (pictured) 'a British hero.'


'The murder of Alan Henning is a brutal and criminal act of terror that is an affront to all Muslims across the world.'

So BL, you're tell me, Alan was a friend to Muslims, and Islam, worked a job to support his family, as well as worked hard to raise money and supplies for Muslims in a war torn nation.

Then to top that off, couldn't sit idly by, so he actually took the time and helped get the supplies to the Muslim people who needed it most.

And for all his hard work, selflessness, other Muslims sawed his head off, despite the fact that he cared deeply about them?

However awful Alan's death was, and how however barbaric, evil and inhuman ISIS and other Muslim terrorists are, I think the term that can be used to describe people like Alan is "naive, left-wing, liberal do-gooder".

Here's something which has just been revealed about the Muslim "charity" that Alan was involved in:


NEXT ISIS BEHEADING: Alan Henning Muslim charity is funding terrorism

By John Ward
September 17, 2014
Alan Henning Hamas arms


Al-Fatiha Global extremist links revealed

The circuitous plot that is the ISIS video saga turned into a pot of odd ingredients last night when it became clear that the charity which underwrote ISIS captive Alan Henning’s trip to Syria has clear and disturbing links to extremists on three continents.

In April this year, the UK Charity Commission, the independent regulator of charities in England and Wales, opened a statutory inquiry into Al-Fatiha Global and what it called ‘serious concerns about the governance and financial management of the charity’.

The Slog has established that Al-Fatiha has used its activities as a cover for the shipment of arms to Hamas. It also has a track-record of campaigning for the release of convicted Al-Qaida bombers.

It also has clearly discernible links to the International Solidarity movement, a hard-left US based extremist group whose focus is on ‘assisting the Palestinian cause in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict’ – a euphemism for lying about Israeli violence and generally ‘delegitimising the State of Israel’. It in turn has links to Al Baghdadi and the Syrian rebels who morphed into ISIS. Astonishingly, earlier this year the BBC based a short clip alleging Israeli attacks on children in Gaza, without revealing the provenance of the source as ISM.

A spokeswoman for Al-Fatiha said the charity had no comment to make on the reports, but no comment is required: the shot at the top of this piece shows Mr Henning clearly in the company of Al-Fatiha adherents. Over the last 48 hours I have been able to establish that the Briton did take part in the land excursion to Syria and was kidnapped within 30 minutes of his arrival.

It remains unclear as to the complicity of Al-Fatiha in the kidnapping, but suspicions are certain to be aroused given the mountain of evidence showing that the charity is funding extremism. There is also no way of ascertaining with any certainty whether Mr Henning knew of the real role of the charity.

It was that unlisted phone number that had somebody answers it as CIA font operations, Hi , again, . . .

You have him being pretty active for being so overweight. You sure he didn't type the facts like BlackLeaf does. OMG, are the two one and the same? The jowls certainly look British.

This is starting to make the news in Britain now. Even my parents have been talking about it.

It does seem that the group of Muslims from Bolton (my hometown, so some of these could live just across the road from me) who Alan Henning was with when they all went to Syria for "charity work" - in a huge convoy of ambulances, taking with them medical supplies, etc for the people of Syria - are not the angels we have been led to believe they are.

It does seem that the "charity" they were working for has links with an organisation called Al-Fatiha, which is supportive of Al-Qaida and ISIS. It seems that they knew all along that their "friend" Alan Henning would be kidnapped by ISIS. They were in on it.

Even yesterday, before I knew about their links with terror, when I watched the interview with Bolton taxi driver Kasim Jameel, Alan's "friend" and a member of the "aid convoy", I was thinking that his distress over Alan's death didn't seem sincere. He was crying, but it seemed like he was acting.

I just came from your ISIS thread. That shows you don't live by the same code that you expect to see in others.
If ISIS is the result of the US (and friends) being involved using Saudi money they why would you expect the $5B that was sunk into the Ukraine would be for an outcome that would be any different?
You should be more interested in 'the facts' that I am because you were over in Europe with a gun in your hand. What difference does it make when the 'facts' show the USSR went into Afghanistan as a result of terror attacks against civilians that had increased over the last 6 months because the US has sent in some specialists who had a lot of explosives. You can continue to cheer for the US and condemn Russia as being just like the old USSR when the 'facts' say over the last 20 years Russia has dropped international ambitions and looked at international business, an area that is limited because the West is only interested in a weapons based economy where a few get all of the goodies. You little trip over there was the 'solution' to a 'created problem', if you don't see that same pattern at work then you did turn out to be just the kind of sheeple they were looking for. My experience was a bit different as we ate what we shot so we had a tendency to use only one bullet at a time and we made sure it was the proper target before the kill part too place. Perhaps it should be done like Kiev is doing (NATO trained standard methods for any conflict, rule #1, stay out of range and sent somebody else to fight for you.) They leave their dead (kill the wounded) so the 'enemy' has to bury them. Cleaning out the jails so you have more to turn over at the POW swaps is another NATO tactic, all of which you would have to agree with as being 'proper' even if your inside didn't see it that way. Doing what is good for the collective doesn't always end up with it being a good collective. To do that you need to referendum everything rather than one saying he speaks for many when the 'facts on the ground' would show something different.

Hopefully your mocking the ones from NA that go over to fight with the Muslims has you saying you would go. The attention the 30 from NA (or whatever the number is) get is very high considering the 30 women and kids that get killed in less time that them going over there. Israel was looking for 'experienced' persons from NA and many took advantage, a lot more than 30 so why aren't you and the other Israeli-firsters not whining that they wouldn't take you (obviously or you would have gone). Just from the 'mental stability' angle you are in a tailspin even more than usual.

At least my God has me leaving the things, I meet, in better condition than when I met it. I'd say 'Try it before you knock it but why bother really'

If true, that's beyond despicable.


It's all starting to come out now. But I doubt that The Bolton News newspaper, which is in thrall to anything Islamic and were treating these guys as angels when they left Bolton for Syria in their "aid convoy", will condemn them. It'll just ignore the allegations.

Apparently, people warned Henning not to go to Syria. His taxi driver pals and other people he knew warned him not to go. Yet he ignored their warnings.

A mixture of naivety, stupidity and getting involved with Bolton ISIS-supporting Islamists who are disguising themselves as Good Samaritans wanting to help the civilians of Syria has cost him his life.

The true horror of radical terrorists is their insidious tactics. Warfare has rules of engagement, terrorism doesn't. It is bottom of the barrel.
It's time we reached down there and scraped out the scum.

I just came from your ISIS thread. That shows you don't live by the same code that you expect to see in others.
I'm not sure what you're babbling about, maybe you could apply some context.

Apparently, people warned Henning not to go to Syria. His taxi driver pals and other people he knew warned him not to go. Yet he ignored their warnings.
Some people are just to determined to throw themselves into the fray. To make a difference. Leave a mark, no matter how small. To make the day of an innocent, just that much easier, brighter.

I call them heroes. They don't all tote guns.
