Alan Henning 'killed by Islamic State' ISIS unhuman behavior

Alan Henning 'killed by Islamic State' ISIS unhuman people, i dont know who gonna make these idiots people understand that human made this religion, caste and difference God made all of us same we are all same Earthans, then why this killing what they gonna achieve from it, they are actually doing it for nothing. they just leading to human becoming evil. 

The Salford taxi driver was delivering aid to Syria in December when he was kidnapped and then held hostage by IS.

IS threatened to kill him in footage last month showing the death of Briton David Haines, and in this video they threaten US aid worker Peter Kassig.

David Cameron said Britain would do all it could "to hunt down these murderers and bring them to justice".

The prime minister said the killing of father-of-two Mr Henning, 47, showed "how barbaric and repulsive" IS was.

"My thoughts and prayers tonight are with Alan's wife Barbara, their children and all those who loved him," he said.

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

Mr Henning's wife Barbara had this week appealed for her husband's release, saying: "He is innocent."

Volunteer Mr Henning was on his fourth aid mission to Syria when he was captured within minutes of arriving in the country last December.

The prime minister will be briefed by intelligence and security chiefs on Saturday.

Downing Street said the "barbarity" of the act "underlines why it is right for Britain to join in the attacks against IS", according to BBC assistant political editor Norman Smith.

"It is also pointed out that ministers have known for some time the risk to Western hostages and cannot allow that to determine British foreign policy," our correspondent added.

Number Ten has declined to comment on the possible use of special forces in the fight against IS.

'Generous character'

IS has previously released videos showing the apparent beheading of two US journalists, James Foley and Steven Sotloff, and British aid worker Mr Haines.

The video released on Friday is yet to be verified, but it appears to show Mr Henning kneeling beside a militant, who is dressed in black, in a desert setting.

The footage ends with an IS fighter threatening a man they identify as Mr Kassig.

In a statement, Mr Kassig's family said he had converted to Islam and referred to him as Abdul Rahman Kassig.

The family asked people around the world to pray for his release and that of "all innocent people being held hostage in the Middle East and around the globe".

They also asked people to pray for Mr Henning's family, adding: "We have read about his work and his generous character with great respect and admiration."
