Abu Sayyaf had vowed to behead one of the four, abducted last fall from a marina at an island resort in the south of the country, if their ransom demand was not met by a Monday deadline.
“We have received information that a headless body was found at 8:30 p.m. of a Caucasian man in Jolo City, Jolo Island,” Dick Gordon, chairman of the Philippine Red Cross, said in an interview....
“A motorcycle driver threw a plastic bag in the road in front of where there were five children playing at 7:30 p.m.. But there was a brown-out (power failure). When the lights went back on it was seen that there was blood on the plastic bag and police were called.”
The Philippine military also confirmed to Reuters that a severed head had been found.

After armed gunmen seized the four hostages last fall on Samal Island, near the southern city of Davao, Philippine authorities believe they were transferred about 700 kilometres by sea to Abu Sayyaf’s stronghold on Basilan Island, also in the south of the country.
Abu Sayyaf — the group’s name is Arabic for Bearer of the Sword — is considered a terrorist organization by Canada, the U.S. and many other countries.
For years aligned with al-Qaida, the group — itself a collection of different factions — has more recently been kidnapping people for ransom in the name of the Islamic State....

muslims are the same the world over.
It doesn’t matter the environment or race or climate.
I guess Allah isn’t satisfied if you just cut off an innocent guy’s head. You have to go a step further, and throw the head among a bunch of playing children.
There is a downside but the exchange rate is very favorable.
Typical moozlums.
Typical moozlums.
General Pershing knew what to do with these guys.
At this point the only thing we can say with certainty is: “This has nothing to do with Islam.”
Religion of Pieces.
Rest in peace, John.... you didn’t deserve to die at the hands of these scumbags.
What will Trudeau do?
Send Abu Sayef a sternly worded letter along with some smoked meats?
Ah yes the group that McNicols and his buddy McCeigh were associated with
Lesson. Do not vacation where Muslims are over 2 per cent of the population.
Suprisingly enough, Little Justin had the cojones to call it an ‘act of cold-blooded murder’...
Of course, I fully expect him to back off once the howls of outrage start up from the various Muslim groups.
Is it my imagination or is it true that *anywhere* on earth where you find noteworthy numbers of moslems you find medieval savagery?
Did anybody ever get to the bottom of all that? One things was striking: who else got actually Death Penalty in record time like that? Amazing.
Jayna Davis did tremendous research it was ignored
He was a student of Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, the former President.
He's been negotiating with the Muslim rebels in the South, and has agreed to give them a "semi-autonomous" area, which is so obviously idiotic it barely needs refutation. His plan fell through after the Moro Liberation Front killed 44 Special Ops soldiers trying to capture or kill one of their leaders. (The got him, but paid a high price.) This made average Filipinos quite mad, and the Congress scrapped the bill without even a vote.
It's a small country aligned with the USA, they should kill every Muslim terrorist in the country, nd expel every Muslim citizen who complains about it, by boat directly to Indonesia or Malaysia.
The Muz already have their islands.
