Good Lord the poor man
They're absolute animals.
They've got another poor sod lined up - Alan Henning.
What is this world coming to?

In a way Rog, it's not the man, it's the family I totally feel sorry for, at least he knows it was instant, it's the friends and family that know the way he died and are still here. My heart goes out to them
Pure and simple (and people like them) EVIL!!

It's not instant. From the picture (i haven't seen the video), they're using a kitchen type knife.
It's absolutely barbaric.
Oh hell Rawks, that's even worse!
Nope, it's not instant at all.
Beheading tends to make us think of a bloody great axe and the chopping block.
If only it was as swift as that.
BBC news showing a still....before the event I've got shivers and goosepimples
Barstewards! Plain and simple!!

I think in this instance actually calling them bastards wouldn't upset anyone.

Plus the mental and physical torture he may have suffered beforehand.
Despicable people.
What has been heard can't be forgotten. I wont be hunting for the video.
We must act somehow.
No news outlet, social media outlet should show any pictures or videos of the beheadings as this is what the scumbag evil IS want. They want the media to do their propaganda. By all means report it, but not show the films or pictures. I feel for the families as Cosi. It's becoming a very dangerous and frightening world.
You're right Rawks, but I didn't know what would get through the filters

I'd toyed with the idea of signing up lately, but not now

It's not easy to avoid the pictures, that's true. I think the majority on Twitter are agreed that viewing any video link is a no-no. Fortunately there are lots of photos coming through of David with his family.

How though Col? I hate the thought of 'War' but if this is the only way to stop these swines, then so be it

They're at least 90 mins behind with their 'news'

That said....Twitter and Social Networks like them should be on this like a ton of bricks and get this crap off their pages!

Good intel and very good aim from the air. Not just once or twice, but sustained for a week. That should cut their numbers.

Good point I guess
My heart goes out to the family of David Haines.
I have no words

I'm sorry to say Sprout but it's not always
It knocks me sick to the stomach when I hear of this, it's not the quick guillotine but hacked with some sword/knife.
I remember years ago and Ken Bigley and some sick individual watched it in the office I worked, I walked past and glanced, but I will never forget the split second of what I saw. Truly horrible.
Sprout, I agree, it's the family knowing after what the person went through, because after so many cuts the person would thankfully go in to shock.
From reports David Haines was a lovely caring guy, out there to give help.
Just awful. God Bless him xx

It's just awful, I despair thinking of the people who are capable of carrying it out.

They're psychopaths.
I found this.
I think the overriding feelings are of disgust and anger, but what adds to it is the fact the man was trying to do good and help people in need.
Makes me sick to the core.
Time to up the ante.
Way past time

these cowards can't get to their supposed enemy of Islam so they choose an easy target, grandstanding on the world stage enjoying the revulsion it's causing
I read somewhere and I can't for the life of me say where it was but a lot of these Western 'jihadis' are fed up with the life over there - they thought they were going to be fighting Assad, but have ended up fighting other Islamic factions so they're pulling the 'I don't want to kill other Muslims' so much so the more extreme within IS are holding them captive and could possibly behead them for not carrying out their pledge to uphold IS beliefs.
Sooner or later it will all implode but how many more poor souls will die until that happens
