ISIS threatened to behead Japanese journalist Kenji Goto this week.
They offered a Thursday deadline.
On Tuesday ISIS released a tape with Kenji Goto where he said, “I have less than 24 hours to live.”
Today ISIS beheaded Kenji Goto…
From the video:
To the Japanese government, you, like the foolish satanic coalition have yet to understand that we, by Allah’s grace, are Islamic caliphate with authority and power, an entire army thirsty for your blood.”
ISIS posted video online
WARNING GRAPHIC PHOTOS….
Original photos here.
This is the same Islamist Twitter account that carried the countdown earlier this week.
