An Algerian jihadist group has released a video that appears to show the beheading of French tourist Herve Gourdel, who was seized on Sunday. Militant group Jund al-Khilafa had set a 24-hour deadline on Tuesday for France to halt air strikes in Iraq. Mr Gourdel, 55, was abducted in the north-east Kabylie region.
France joined the US last week in launching air strikes on Islamic State militants in Iraq.

Not surprised really...
They said they would...
France's response may as well have been to hand them the blade when they said that they wouldn't stop...
Another man who's blood is on his governments hands as well as terrorists!
RIP!
Whatever. they would kill him anyways.
They are the ones that practice racism against ALL that are not a member of the brainwashed lunatics

It would seem these videos of pointless murders are going to become more frequent as a propaganda tool for jihadist groups.
My sympathies go out to the family and friends of Herve Gourdel.
