Alan Hemming

[KateLMead]

As I suspected he would be, Alan Hemming has been slaughtered. Where will it all end? Just looking at the state "of the world " the brutality engrossing it makes me shudder.
What can one say? You tried to give help Alan, and you have paid for it with your life as have others.

Dreadful news to wake up to this morning. My thoughts are with his poor family.

Where is that Peace Envoy ?take a guess. !! He is still Making millions from his waffle and supposed charities. Another big Victorian residence to add to his multi million portfolio .amazing to think he could not like Mandy afford his mortgage when in power .
I have always said he would sup with the devil for cash. £50,000 spent on his wife's birthday. wouldn't it have been wonderful if he had donated just a quarter of his ill gotten gains to the starving, dispossessed in the countries where he is supposed to be the Peace Envoy. I said the man would de stabilise the Middle East following his lies and destruction of Iraq.
There is certainly no way he would ever risk "His Life to help others", my deepest sympathy goes to Alan's family. And my contempt goes to The B'liars

We have been prepared for this so it is not a shock. RIP Alan and condolences to his family and friends.

It is a terrible thing. I know this may be harsh, but Alan Henning was warned not to cross over the border into Syria but did so regardless. He put himself in the way of danger, even though he was only trying to help. There is much I would like to say on the subject of those who beheaded him but it's probably best that I don't.

My heart goes out to his family. However, were it my father, I would have seen him as dead the second he was taken. It is, in the end, the only way to deal with this. Once you have accepted that, there is no hope to be crushed, only surprise and joy if he were to return.

We can't win this kind of war. Because we are too noble to win this war. The only way to win this kind of war is to do as Ghengis did. Make the price so high that the people themselves would rather tear down and beat to death the murderers before they could bring down the wrath of Yassa on them. We are simply incapable of doing that. So we are hostage to their brutality.

There are two points I take away from this.

One is that the Moslem leaders of Britain have forever tainted themselves, in my view, over this one. So he was a good man because he was working with a Moslem aid charity was he? What about all the other "good men" they kept their lips tightly sealed as they were murdered.

The second is that this murder will steady the hands on the pilots controls and will force engagement if there is even the slightest chance of success, whereas, otherwise, their hands might have been stayed by doubt about the loss of non-combatants. Piling more tragedy on top of the existing and driving more radicals to the fold.

He should never have gone over the border. He was seen as a "resource" in their war of terror. Funnily enough we have hundreds if not thousands of those resources in the UK today. My civilian mind runs screaming from the prospect. So we're going to lose, in the end, unless we kill thousands of Iraqi and Syrian civilians to get at hundreds of them. Because they will not hesitate to murder any number of our loved one's to get what they want.

What a waste of a human life and lives...What a waste of those lives that have been taken and lost attempting to escape the horrors surrounding them. The little children's faces tear my heart out. The numbers who have gone out and joined ISA from UK are phenominal, one and the same who unbelievably will walk back into Britain when and as they like, placing the public in danger. Security? None existent. And as has been Stated immigration and customs are disgracefully lax.."not fit for purpose"

A terrible barbaric act on a non-combatant hostage particularly such a noble man doing his utmost at great risk to help. It is however only to be expected that they will take revenge against any westerner they can get hold of and I wonder if O`Barmy and our nutter really believe that by bombing them and killing lots of their people they are going to get the message to mend their evil ways and set up nice democracies like the paradises in the West.

I doubt it very much pederito
