(NYDN) An innocent British aid worker was beheaded by Islamic State terrorists in a video released Friday — the fourth savage execution of a Western hostage since August.
The horrific 71-second clip of Alan Henning’s gruesome death in the desert came just days after his wife begged ISIS for his release.
“I am Alan Henning,” the doomed man declares as a black-clad terrorist stands to his side, a knife in his left hand.
“Because of our Parliament’s decision to attack the Islamic State, I as a member of the British public will now pay the price for that decision.”
Henning, wearing a red T-shirt with his hands cuffed behind his back, is shown for a brief second as the terrorist killer brings the blade to his throat.
The 47-year-old former taxi driver was kidnapped last December while working in an aid convoy crossing into Syria from Turkey.
The video ended ominously with an ISIS terrorist threatening another man identified as an American citizen Peter Kassig.
