WHO is responsible for the horrific beheading of the US journalist James Foley in Syria?

1) Is it Britain and the US, who have killed countless thousands of Muslims in their twelve year war in Afghanistan, where the Taliban are again firmly in control?

2) Or is it Tony Blair, for embarking on the war against Iraq based on a pack of lies and killing yet more innocent Muslims?

3) Perhaps it is because we illegally went to war in Libya to unseat the enemy of Islamic fundamentalism, the dictator Gaddafi?

4) Or is due to our efforts in Syria to unseat secular president Assad by funding and arming the jihadists?

5) Or perhaps it is Mr Cameron, who while he called the murder of US journalist Foley “barbaric”, gave the gentlest of rebukes to Israeli PM Netanyahu over the current slaughter of 2,000 innocent civilians in Gaza, a total that includes 400 children and continues to rise.

6) And while Netanyahu, who has killed or arrested many Palestinian MPs and politicians, refuses point blank to go back to the negotiating table, we continue to supply the tanks, guns and equipment to continue the slaughter in Gaza.

Will the impending war in Iraq, and the flood of arms to Kurds, recruit another thousand or more homegrown jihadists? and again, inadvertently provide another supply of arms to Isis?

If you stop the war now, Mr Cameron, you will take a small step to peace and, just perhaps, save many more like James Foley.
