A short video released by ISIS on Friday shows the apparent beheading of British aid worker Alan Henning. In the same video, the terror group threatened the life of an American aid worker.
A taxi driver from near Manchester, England, Alan Henning was part of a team of volunteers that traveled to Syria in December to deliver food and water to people affected by the Middle Eastern country's devastating civil war. He was abducted the day after Christmas by masked gunmen, according to other people in the aid convoy.
The pattern is essentially identical to previous incidents. There were threats that this might happen and Henning's family released pleas to the terrorist to spare his life. The pleas appear to have once again fallen on deaf ears, and the victim was paraded before the camera to read a statement threatening the west for their opposition to ISIS.
"I am Alan Henning. Because of our Parliament's decision to attack the Islamic State [ISIS], I, as a member of the British public, will now pay the price for that decision," Henning says in the video, before his apparent executioner speaks.
"The blood of [fellow slain captive] David Haines was on your hands, [British Prime Minister David] Cameron," the black clad militant says. "Alan Henning will also be slaughtered but his blood is on the hands of the British Parliament."
At the end of the video another captive – American aid worker, Peter Kassig – is also shown, indicating that he will be the next to go.
