Islamic State Beheads 11 Christians Day After Christmas: “Message To Christians All Over The World”
‘I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieved, so strike [them] upon the necks.'(Quran 8:12)
The Islamic State is inspired by Islamic texts and teachings just as Hamas, Al Qaeda, al Shabaab, Boko Haram et al and all Islamic groups.
ISLAMIC STATE FILMS GRUESOME BEHEADINGS IN “MESSAGE TO CHRISTIANS ALL OVER THE WORLD”
By Tyler Durden, Business Insider, December 27, 2019:
The Islamic State has released a video which purportedly shows the brutal execution of 11 blindfolded Christians in Nigeria, the day after Christmas, in revenge for the killing of ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi and IS spokesman Abdul-Hasan al-Muhajir, according to Ahmad Salkida – a journalist who was first sent the video.
“This is a message to Christians all over the world,” says a masked man from the Islamic State West African Province (ISWAP), in the 56-second clip released the Amaq news agency, a platform for Islamic State propaganda.
“We killed them as revenge for the killing of our leaders, including Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi and [IS spokesman] Abul-Hasan al-Muhajir.”
The footage, filmed in an unidentified outdoor area, shows one captive who is shot dead while the other 10 are pushed to the ground and beheaded, according to the BBC.
Here is a clip of the video which cuts off before the reported executions.

On Sunday, the jihadists killed six people and abducted five others including two aid workers when they intercepted vehicles on a highway on the outskirts of Maiduguri, the Borno state capital. In a similar attack on December 5, ISWAP fighters disguised as Nigerian soldiers stopped and searched vehicles at a checkpoint near Maiduguri.
The group claimed in a statement that six soldiers and eight civilians, including two Red Cross workers, were among those abducted in that attack. Last week the group released a video showing 11 alleged hostages. –MSN
One of the hostages in the video who identified himself as a school teacher said that he and the other hostages appealed to the Nigerian government and the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) to help secure their release, according to the report.
