Completely innocent.
My heart breaks.
Prayers for his soul and for his little son, Jack.
“Completely innocent” is a concept that is not even on the scope for the Islamic jihadists that carried out this brutal act in full daylight.
You are a Westerner, you wear the uniform of a Western military organization, you are the enemy, and you are to be executed. Period. End of discussion.
Jihadists carry their own justification with them at all times. If the foot soldiers waver even a bit, the imams in the mosques remind the backsliders of their DUTY, every day.
Remember, mosques are the armories, training academies, and barracks for the forward deployment of the invasion force in England and every other country in which Muslims are in the minority. Those Muslims who do not actively carry out acts of brutal “reprisal” attacts against the hated Western civilization, are human shields for those who do participate.
In the end, there are no “innocent” Muslims, now that the rules of engagement have been established. Just as the Islamists do not consider that any Westerner is innocent.
