The disputed fate of the 21 Coptic Christians abducted in Sirte, Libya is now clear and visible for all to see on video: while holding them down, Islamic State members shove their fingers in the Christians’ eyes, crane their heads back, and slice away at their throats with knives—all in the name of Allah and Islam, all as the slaughtered call out on the “Lord Jesus Christ.”
Earlier, the BBC had falsely reported that 13 of these now slaughtered Copts were “released.” (Such downplaying of Muslim persecution of Christians is, of course, standard for the BBC.)
In the video, the lead executioner waves his dagger at the camera while boasting of the Islamic State’s savagery: “Oh people, recently you have seen us on the hills of as-Sham and Dabiq’s plain [Syrian regions], chopping off the heads that have been carrying the cross for a long time. And today, we are on the south of Rome, on the land of Islam, Libya, sending another message.”
He adds: “We will fight you until Christ descends, breaks the cross and kills the pig” (all eschatological actions ascribed to the Muslim “Christ,” Isa).
As opposed to the Obama administration’s reactions to Islamic State beheadings of Americans and others—namely, strong assertions that such actions are not Islamic—Egyptian President Sisi responded to the slaughter of Egyptian citizens by immediately sending fighter jets to bomb Islamic State targets in Libya.
What did these Coptic Christians—or, as the Islamic State refers to them, “The Humiliated Followers of the Coptic Church”—do to deserve such treatment? According to Catholic Pope Francis, “They were killed simply for the fact that they were Christians. It makes no difference whether they be Catholics, Orthodox, Copts or Protestants. They are Christians!”
Far from being satisfied with the slaughter of these 21 Christians, the Islamic State is calling on Muslims to find and slaughter more Coptic Christians. (Copts make for the majority of Christians in Libya, having migrated there from neighboring Egypt to find work during the Gaddafi years; most of them are desperate to return but need aid from the Egyptian government to cross the Libyan desert.)
In its online English magazine Dabiq, after justifying the slaughter of the 21, the Islamic State concludes by asserting that “it is important for Muslims everywhere to know that there is no doubt in the great reward to be found on Judgment Day for those who spill the blood of these Coptic crusaders wherever they may be found.”…

**WARNING** VERY GRAPHIC VIDEO:
“A MESSAGE SIGNED WITH BLOOD TO THE NATION OF THE CROSS”
http://sendvid.com/17rm25rj
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is the video showing the 21 brave Christian men being beheaded by the cowards with knives and their faces covered …
And I must warn you, this video is extremely graphic beginning @3:26. I had to look away while they were being beheaded.
R.I.P Dear, Brave, Brother’s in Christ.

Question: “What should we learn from Christian martyrs?”
Answer: http://www.gotquestions.org/Christian-martyrs.html
Descendantofacrusader says
I am simply overwhelmed by the sickening slaughter of so many innocent Christian lives by satanic men committing unspeakable atrocities in the name of Satan himself – Allah. Even the Nazi’s of 70 years ago, using their mechanized death factories to annihilate the Jewish population, were at least secretive their barbarity, where as these blood, soaked, ISIS demons are absolutely brazen in their wanton evil. They will surely all pay on judgement day, but are we to do until then? Pray
Loretta Pienaar says
Yes, Stephanie, where is Obama?? Not where he should be as an elected president of a CHRISTIAN (and believers in the One God: Jews) country. All who commit these utterly barbaric, EVIL deeds are AGENTS OF SATAN!! AND AGENTS OF SATAN HAS NO PLACE IN THE WESTERN CIVILISATION!!!!
M S case says
Oh they will pay on judgment day all right but they will pay before judgment day you can be assured of that Be patient world Their time is short. God will take vengeance long before judgment day but he will do it in his own way and his own time……..and I sure would hate to go through what will befall them. Fire will overwhelm then long before hell.
Undaunted says
Those who have to turn away from the “graphic” images here or elsewhere need to man up. If you can’t look at your enemy and face what he does to others, how is it that you propose to fight when the time comes, when it’s your turn?
DeusLoVult says
Agreed. You cannot defeat your enemy if you refuse to see the atrocities they commit. Censorship has, in part, made the West woefully unprepared to face savages such as these.
Undaunted says
Exactly. Thank you.
AJ Liberphile says
I’ve seen enough of these videos to know what we’re up against, including Liveleaks ritual human slaughterhouse and the head football.
For my own mental health, I simply read summaries like these now. It may well be that we have to face these koranimals personally in the future (and suffer PTSD nightmares therafter), but I don’t need their barbarity any further into my consciousness than it already is right now.
Jay Boo says
Muslims want to be shown RESPECT
But like Muhammad they attempt to steal what the fail to earn.
Descendantofacrusader says
Tough guy “manning up”, as you put it, can lead us to an unhealthy acceptance of evil and we thereby become no better than the ISIS beasts committing the horrendous inhuman acts in the first place. I am repulsed by a voyeuristic, acceptance of “graphic” evil not out of fear, but out of humanity.
Undaunted says
Wow. I’m underwhelmed. There is nothing “voyeuristic” or “unhealthy” about looking your enemy in the face, becoming fully familiar with his or her savagery so you can get an understanding of what you will be dealing with yourself when it’s your turn to fight. Oh, unless you’ve decided not to fight, which evidently is your plan. Too, you need to see the look in the eyes of the victims so a righteous rage is ignited inside you. Your handle suggests that some of your kin once upon a time went toe-to-toe with some Muslims and evidently survived to produce you. It’s a shame to them that you turned out to be such a pussy.
Descendantofacrusader says
“Undaunted” and your moniker is similarly suggestive of a hard-headed, tough-guy, wannabe, persona. It’s also quite obvious to me from your over reliance on profanity, that you are covering up for a lack of cognitive articulation. “Pussy” – “dip-shit” – that’s tacky, my friend, and juvenile to boot and maybe even beneath the dignity of Jihad Watch itself! Or maybe you are simply a common troll. At any rate: yes indeed I am descended from a 12th century, English crusader who fought at the siege of Acre in 1191! And you, my friend?…..maybe a Neanderthal…..judging from your belligerent attitude? I am indeed proud of my ancestor who fought against the muslin scourge of Saladin 800 years ago in quite the same manner that I myself am today against that same evil that also threatens Western Civilization at it’s very foundation. Even so: I am non-the-less morally outraged at the spectacular, Islamic inspired, violence taking place in my lifetime. You, on the other hand, appear to be intellectually and emotionally anesthetized to that same violence, and for this, I’m sincerely sorry for you, my friend. What sort of mental desensitization do you think it required for the Nazi SS to make lampshades out of human skin or soap from corpses? I certainly do not shy away from ghastly atrocities as you appear so bent upon “de-pussifying” in order to maintain your tough-guy persona. Thank you, but unlike your seeming voyeuristic fascination with gore, I will retain my humanity in the process of our epic struggle with the graphic evil of groups like ISIS. Conversely and at the same time, I would not hesitate to put a bullet between eyes of one these blood-thirsty monsters. You obviously do not understand the distinction. There is a proud, 800 yr. old, military tradition that stretches backward through my family’s heritage – can you say the same? And finally: I wish you a good day and much better luck the next time you attempt to take on something much bigger than yourself, my friend.

This one’s for you, sweetie-pie…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yes–I chose not to view the beheadings not out of fear, but out of s feeling of humanity–just like you stated. And I’ve seen The Passion of the Christ a few times, and I’ve never look away or covered my eyes during those graphic scenes of Jesus being beaten and then crucified; out of reverence for our LORD and the price He paid for my (our) sins; and I’ve heard it said that the actual beatings and crucifixion of Jesus were much more graphic and bloody than what was presented in that particular film. Instead I watch The Passion with total love and reverence for our Savior, and with tears continuously streaming down my face.
Undaunted says
That’s a movie, dip-shit. Amazing. Hey, even I cried when I watched The Passion. In fact. I’ve cried each time I’ve seen it. So what? You want to know what reality makes me cry? When fully grown “men” show themselves to be unwilling and therefore incapable of protecting those they say they love, mistaking fear and cowardice for wisdom and compassion… and then preaching to others it.
Champ says
Undaunted, I wasn’t criticizing you, at all, in my response to Descendantofacrusader, so I see no reason why you’ve resorted to nasty name-calling directed at me. I see viewing the beheading video–or not viewing it–as a personal choice, and I happen to agree with what Descendantofacrusader stated. Not all of of us see it the same way. I respect your point of view, but why can’t you respect mine?
Champ says
Undaunted, you’re right, The Passion is a movie; unlike this video that shows real murders in real time. I guess I was trying to compare an event–that happened about two thousand years ago–with something current; insofar that Jesus really was bloodied and crucified, just as these 21 men were beheaded and their blood was spilled. Both events were/are gruesome.
Undaunted says
Oops, Champ is a lady. And a nice one at that, I’ve come to know. So, sorry for the “dipshit” but I’m sticking to my guns… we need to look death in the face.
Champ says
Thank you, Undaunted. I was typing my response while you left this message, so no worries.
Undaunted says
Champ; I beg your pardon. Sincerely. I’m busy writing over at my blog and got turned around on who was saying what in this thread. I respect your point of view though I can not agree with it. My mistake. You have my apology as you are a gentle lady worthy of respect.
Champ says
Thank you, Undaunted. All’s forgiven. Take care, my friend.

“As opposed to the Obama administration’s reactions…Egyptian President Sisi responded to the slaughter of Egyptian citizens by immediately sending fighter jets to bomb Islamic State targets in Libya.”
As an Egyptian Christian myself, I’m proud of my people both Christians and Muslims.
First, they brought the Muslim Brotherhood thugs to their knees by removing Morsi from power and bringing the whole gang of thugs to justice.
Second, they FORCED el-Sisi to run for President; they knew he was the right man for the job.
Third, they backed their President in every decision he made, they did it out of almost blind trust.
Mark my words…again:
The fall of the Muslim Brotherhood has started in Egypt – The fall of Islam will start there too.
It is already happening…

We don’t have to worry, the Pope said a mass for the dead – that should frighten the terrorists.
AtomicB says
The Pope does not have an army, he echos the message of the patriarchs and the Coptic Pope in calling for prayer and courage in hope. The courage of these martyrs is a powerful message that makes the aggressors look weak and their grasping for temporal power in the end, hopeless. The courage of these martyrs is part of the antidote to Islam. It shows the world that Christianity is a fighting religion, based in Love and hope not some pale death cult.
In addition to my knowledge, the Pope has made positive statements regarding the possibility of armed conflict, but against the use of a bombing campaign which by the way I also agree with that assessment.
Steven says
Our laws stop us from taking an eye for an eye as in the bible. They are laughing & spitting at our faces! Imagine being one of these Christians what would you be wanting from the world to do with these insane barbarics that dominate by 50% of the total earths population today?
Think of lies ahead for our kids?
