There is a lot of people born in England in muslim families. They were between modern civilized life and strong islam rules and founded them lost and in middle of nowhere. Because of islam rules they were easy to be taken for ISIS because they actually hate everything surrounding them in Europe. So they came in perverted islam society and demonstrate their hate on non muslim victims

Hostages killed by Isis were not British spies, say UK agencies

Britain’s intelligence agencies have made a preliminary assessment that the Islamic State made false claims that the five hostages murdered in a new propaganda video had acted as UK spies.

The prime minister, David Cameron, who confirmed that he has viewed part of the footage, said that the video was “desperate stuff” from an organisation that is losing territory under pressure from allied airstrikes.

Britain’s three intelligence agencies – MI5, MI6 and GCHQ – have been analysing the video since its release over the weekend and have concluded that none of the hostages were working for Britain.

The agencies cannot definitively rule out that they may have been working for other allied countries. Their strong assumption, however, is that the hostages were working for Syrian resistance opposed to Isis in their territory. A vital part of the resistance’s work is the dissemination of video to highlight the horrifying impact of life under Isis.

Downing Street declined to comment on intelligence matters. But the prime minister’s spokeswoman cast doubt on claims in the video that the apparent victims were UK spies. “This does appear to be a propaganda tool and not all of Isil’s propaganda in the past has been true,” the spokeswoman said.

Cameron said the video showed that Isis is now on the back foot. “I watched a part of [the video] yesterday and I think it is absolutely desperate tactics from an organisation that is clearly now on the back foot,” he told LBC radio.

These people are just dogs, in fact lower than animals. I don't recognise them as human as they've chosen to opt out. They certainly do not have any human rights, they should be declared beyond the law and then may be killed with impunity.

 An English-speaking child, and a British-sounding militant who brings to mind ISIS' previous propagandist, 'Jihadi John,' appear in the latest, chilling propaganda video from ISIS.

In the video, which has not yet been independently verified, the child says that the group will kill "kuffar' -- nonbelievers -- "over there," referring to the West, while the adult threatens and insults British Prime Minister David Cameron.

The speaker's accent and dress bring to mind the previous -- masked -- face of the terror group, Mohammed Emwazi, otherwise known as "Jihadi John." Emwazi was understood to have been killed in Raqqa late last year in an airstrike which specifically targeted the Briton. His absence lends credence to Western intelligence agencies' belief that he is indeed dead.

Five men appear at the beginning of the video, confessing to spying on behalf of the British. Much of the video is taken up with the five speaking, looking directly into the camera. Most of the men say they are from Raqqa, the de facto capital of ISIS' territory in Iraq and Syria. The video was purportedly shot there.

A spokesperson for the British Foreign Office says that it is "aware" of the video and is examining its content.
