Last Call For Brutal Bait

Not content with drawing the US into a bloody war in Syria, ISIS has now beheaded a British aid worker, bringing vows of "justice" from PM David Cameron.

British aid worker David Haines has been executed by ISIS militants, according to a video posted Saturday to a website associated with the group, making him the third Western captive to be killed by the Islamist extremist group in recent weeks.

The ISIS video post showing Haines' beheading called his execution "a message to the allies of America."

It is produced very similarly to the videos that showed the executions of American journalists James Foley and Steven Sotloff, the last of which included Haines and the threat that he'd be killed next.

The new video pictures a masked ISIS militant placing his hand on another captive, whom he identified as Alan Henning, a British citizen.

In a tweet, British Prime Minister David Cameron called "the murder of David Haines" an "act of pure evil." 
Cameron added, "We will do everything in our power to hunt down these murderers and ensure they face justice, however long it takes."

I wonder now if Cameron will decide to join the US coalition.  Of course, that's the entire point.  The more, the merrier as far as ISIS is concerned.
