Militants declaring loyalty to Islamic State in Libya single out Rome as a target
Islamist militants claiming loyalty to ISIS have released a video appearing to show the beheading of 21 Coptic Christians who were taken hostage in Libya several weeks ago.
The video shows men apparently being beheaded after being forced to kneel next to the Mediterranean Sea. A militant says they are sending a message from the south of Rome. At the end of the footage the same English-speaking fighter raises his knife to the water and says ISIS would conquer Rome.
This morning Egypt and the Libyan government said they had launched air strikes in retaliation against Islamic State targets.
Egypt said the strikes were intended to avenge the bloodshed and to seek retribution from the killers, adding: Let those far and near know that Egyptians have a shield that protects them. Most of the victims are believed to be Egyptian.
Bishop Angaelos, leader of the Coptic Orthodox church in Britain, said the massacre showed not only a disregard for life but a gross misunderstanding of its sanctity and equal value in every person.

Yeah, they probably will. No one cares any more.
They have the Kardashian freakshow to keep them occupied and coexist bumperstickers on their cars and cat pics on Instagram. No one has time to fight smelly people.
Peace, man.
The West is doomed.
It's been done in so many places, by so many people, across thousands of years.
We seem to think that we just "can't go there".
But I don't see why not. It works. Nuke Mecca and Medina. Kill about 100 million Muslims. Install new governments and social structures all across the Middle East. Erase islam from human society.
Go into with the idea that it is a 100 year commitment.
Go into it with the idea that the US will have a financial profit from the action for 100 years.
It's past time to do it.
Yep, eliminate two generations of Jihadis and peace will prevail for 100 yr or so.
Excellent Idea.
I dont think it would take very long at all to raise the necessary funds!!
the mohammedans are long term planners...form the beginning and as raggedy as their plans have been they are moving rught along towards their goal.
we as a Nation....we as Free Men and Women across the WORLD MUST acknowledge that fact...and Plan ACCORDINGLY
Seems Egypt has done more to protect/avenge Christians than Obama has.
So the answer to combat Muslims is to become Muslim? To think like Muslims?
No crying widows or we’ll be back in the same boat in 18 years.
The only rule in war is that there aren’t any rules in war.
The ragheads have been screwing with Christians since 633.
Western civilization has been DERELICT in it’s duty to wipe them out.
Moslems out of USA!
Moslems out of Europe!
But the idiot anti-Christ "Pope" will continue his "Muslim outreach."
Yes Sisi is no sissy.
You really think Francis I is going to start a war? Good luck with that one.
Ralph Peters on O’Reilly.
Remember the grief Ann Coulter took early on? She said shortly after 911 what we need to do to stop terrorism: “Invade their countries, kill their leaders, and convert any survivors to Christianity.” Perhaps hyperbole; perhaps not.

What's the difference?
“If they attack the Vatican, the next Crusade will start.”
No, it won’t. There are no Knights Templar waiting in the wings this time. The Church is just a veneer of its former self. Maybe the Hindus will gird up to fight the muzz, but our Christian “warriors” are few and far between, I’m sad to say. Christians of today have become as passive and suicidal as the Jews of Europe during the last century. It pains me to say that, but I’ve not seen much of anything to suggest otherwise.
“Yep, eliminate two generations of Jihadis and peace will prevail for 100 yr or so.”
Eliminate their brood mares and islam will disappear in three generations.
Thanks. Lt Col Peters tells it like it needs to be told about jihadis with zero political correctness.
Could be that was the reason he retired as a Lt Col, just like Lt Col West.
