Video Purports to Show Crewman’s Killing.
The video begins with an unseen cameraman breathing heavily and running with the camera toward burning wreckage. Two bodies are visible, one of them severely charred, nearly all its clothes burned away.
“Look at that filth,” someone says in Arabic at the sight of the body. There are brief glimpses of a man carrying an assault rifle along with the cameraman.
The scene moves to tall grass, where a man with thinning, gray hair and wearing a blue flight suit is lying on his back, the right side of his head bloody.
“Stand up! Stand up!” the cameraman shouts to him in English.
“I can’t, it’s broken. Give me a hand,” the survivor says in accented English, raising his hands for help. “Give me your hand,” he repeats.
It appears the militants help pull him to his feet. “Weapons?” the gunmen shout at him in Arabic.
The cameraman tells the crewman, whose face is visible, to step back.“Go! Go!” he shouts.
The survivor then tries to walk, limping with his back to the insurgents, who then say something to him that makes him turn around. He raises his hands to somebody off camera as if gesturing to them to stop what they are about to do.
The militants open fire, continuing to shoot him after he fell to the ground as someone shouts “Allahu Akbar.”

One of the worst things about this story: mainstream media’s reflexive excuses for these foul murderers. Look at the highlighted words above, and consider the subject matter. This is why LGF has a recurring topic titled The Media Are The Enemy.
