Canadian Tourist John Ridsdel BEHEADED in Philippines by ISIS-Tied Muslim Group

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau called the beheading "an act of cold-blooded murder." Yes, and the sky is blue. But what is he going to do about it? Nothing. ISIS and this Islamic group, Abu Sayyaf, which pledged its allegiance to ISIS, have nothing to fear from this dandy. He has said repeatedly that Canada was not at war with ISIS. Well, ISIS is at war with you, damn fool.

Obama's lapdog, PM Trudeau, would not comment on the fate of the other hostages -- fellow Canadian Robert Hall, Hall's Filipino girlfriend, Marites Flor, and a Norwegian, Kjartan Sekkingstad. Of course he wouldn't. John Ridsdel, Canadian Hostage Held by Abu Sayyaf, Found Beheaded in Philippines

by Corky Siemaszko, NBC News, April 25, 2016:

Islamic militants in the Philippines on Monday carried out a threat to behead a Canadian tourist they had been holding for months.

The execution of 68-year-old John Ridsdel was confirmed by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who called it "an act of cold-blooded murder."

"I am outraged by the news that a Canadian citizen, John Ridsdel, held hostage in the Philippines since September 21, 2015, has been killed at the hands of his captors," Trudeau said. "Canada condemns without reservation the brutality of the hostage takers."

Ridsdel's body was found in Jolo CIty -- 900 miles north of Samal Island, where he and three others had been kidnapped by Abu Sayyaf militants last year, Canadian media reported.

His head was found 425 miles west of SamaI Island near Zamboanga City, according to the published reports.

Are the Philippines so ignorant they let the islamo filth run rampant on their turf? That’s some major league stupid right there.

"...condemns without reservation ..."

Was there a possibility of condemnation WITH reservation?

Just another politician who Shakespeare pegged perfectly....

....a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

As long as politicians express outrage but don’t dare call it what it and have no intention of doing anything about it, they are just that.....idiots full of sound and fury signifying nothing.

Like his mentor, he’ll probably send a strongly worded letter, written IN CAPITALS, to ‘Abu Sayyaf’, asking them to ‘pretty please’ stop killing people. Perhaps he’ll even start a Twitter campaign (#evryboddyluveveryboddyevrywhere) if he is REALLY, REALLY ‘without reservation’! The new ‘Captain Canada’!

</sarc>

Calgary hit the trifecta, with Turd-owe as PM, Nut-lee as AB Premier, and ‘light in his loafers’ Nenshi as Mayor. The chastisement of Canada (and especially Calgary), for our sins!

Too bad there isn’t a military commander in the mold of “Black Jack” Pershing that can be sent over to address the situation.

Well Justin, you could bulldoze all the mosques in Canada.

And arrest all the Muslims as being part of a murderous terror cult.

Being Prime Minister and all.

Or not - after all, its not like they’re going to start beheading Canadians in Canada...

Right?

Lots of jungle and islands down there. Hard to put down an insurgency in such conditions.

They probably jyst don’t have the money to patrol all 1,000 islands to root them out. The Sauds probably gives this group more money than the Philipines can pay soldiers.

Islamic scum have such a hold on the southern part of the island of Mindanao that it’s basically been consigned to them for some years now.

The sickos like to parade around with the heads .
If you spend sometime watching the videos they make it is not uncommon to see them carrying them around.

Islam is going to be a huge problem for the Philippines over then next 25 years.

They’d better root them out if they care about their country.

"But what is he going to do about it? Nothing."

Nothing except import them into Canada, but who cares, he's handsome! Just like the dingbats here who voted for the worst President in US history, B. Hussein Soetoro "oh he's handsome" or the rapist from Arkansas "Oh he's handsome!"!

It’s going to be a worldwide problem soon enough.

Duterte, who is now leading by a wide margin, has a reputation for cracking down.
