Islamic State Must Be Destroyed, Says Cameron After Latest Beheading
[IsraelTimes] The Islamic State...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... snuffies who have beheaded another Western hostage are deaf to reason and must be destroyed, British Prime Minister  David Cameron... has stated that he is certainly a big Thatcher fan, but I don't know whether that makes me a Thatcherite,which means he's not. Since he is not deeply ideologicalhe lacks core principles and is easily led. He has been described as certainly not a Pitt, Elder or Younger,but he does wear a nice suit so maybe he's Beau Brummel ... said Saturday as Moslems worldwide were urged to pray for the victim on one of Islam's holiest days. Cameron, speaking after a security briefing at his rural retreat Chequers, said Friday's slaying of 47-year-old English aid worker Alan Henning demonstrated that Islamic State gunnies were committed to inflicting horror for horror's sake. Asked whether he believed Islamic State fighters would kill more hostages, Cameron said they would have to be hunted down to be stopped. He declined to say whether Britannia would extend its involvement in U.S.-led "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," Cameron said. "This is going to be our struggle now. … We must do everything we can to defeat this organization." Moslem leaders across Britannia urged worshippers worldwide to pray for Henning and peace in the Middle East as they gathered at mosques to celebrate Eid al-Adha, Islam's annual "festival of sacrifice." "Millions should be praying today for Alan Henning, a good and honorable man," said Moslem peace activist Shaukat Warraich, speaking outside a mosque in the central English city of Birmingham. Egypt's Foreign Ministry denounced what it called a "barbaric and savage act that fully contradicts Islamic religion tenets and the simplest human and ethical rules." Britannia's former army chief of staff, Gen. Richard Dannatt, called for British air power to be deployed in Syria as well as Iraq, but not for Western ground forces. "This is a fight for the soul of Islam. This is their fight," Dannatt said, pointing to Jordan and Turkey as countries which need "to get stuck into this fight." Farooq Siddique, former leader of a British government initiative to combat extremism, said Western involvement plays into the Lion of Islams' hands. "Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... has 700 jets. They are using only 10 of them. Why do they need the West to go and help them?" Siddique said. Posted by: trailing wife 2014-10-05 |
