Thanks for the sarcasm. But I am not expecting people to cry out in horror, etc. etc.

But I'm also not expecting people to refuse to believe in the guilt of declared enemies of the west* who have committed numerous attacks and atrocities before over a period of years when they take credit for and boast of their latest atrocity. Which latest atrocity is exactly like a similar atrocity committed earlier by the same group (a videotaped beheading immediately after the victim has identified himself on tape).

*not just America BTW - recall the UN bombing in Baghdad for example, or the numerous bombings in a number of countries.

Murder is a terrible thing. Especially the violent death of a young person. One should not have to go around posting "Oh how terrible.. I wasn't complaining about indifference to the atrocity. I was complaining about people immediately inventing rationalizations to avoid holding responsible the people who committed the atrocity.
