Things need to be put into perspective, and most of the media doesn't seem to try to do that. This report and the recent attack on a British soldier give the impression that only people with Muslim sounding names or of Islamic faith cut off peoples' heads. This is not true. Chances are, if you looked at all the murders in the UK over the past few years, you would find several, at least, where the body was cut up and the head removed. There was a story over the past year wherein a former East Enders star (EE is a popular soap show on British TV) was killed by her brother and he dismembered her body, including removing the head. That is just one instance of such a murder which got a lot of media attention because of the victim's fame as a TV star.
In the US, as well, many murders include dismembering the body and removing the head. If you go back and read crime stories, I'm sure you will find many such instances.
About a year ago, there was a Spanish man in Tenerife who beheaded a British tourist.
In Canada a year or two ago, a deranged man on a Greyhound bus beheaded a fellow passenger.
This is not a trend of Muslims beheading non-Muslims. This is a trend of the media focusing on only Muslims doing this kind of thing because it sells. The fact is that removing the head of a murder victim happens far more often in our countries by non-Muslim people than by Muslim people.
Put things into real life perspective instead of allowing the media to manipulate you.
Who's to say that all your example's weren't Muslim also? I'd guess that Muslims are much more likely to murder in the name of religion and more likely to take their victim's head than persons of any other (or no)religeon. After all, who's more likely to act like a barbarian than a barbarian?
You can choose to be ignorant if you want to. If you read and learn the facts, however, you will find that most of the people who have dismembered and beheaded their victims in Western countries were not Muslims.
Many serial killers in the US have beheaded their victims. Most, if not all, serial killers in the US have been white males. Scott Peterson dismembered his wife, including removing her head. The man who beheaded someone on a Greyhound bus was not Muslim, neither was the Spanish man in Tenerife. Neither was the brother who killed and dismembered his TV star sister in the UK.
This guy in India is Hindu: Serial killer Chandrakant Jha was on Tuesday sentenced to death for the second case of identical crime by a Delhi Court which said his offence falls under the "rarest of rare case" as the brutality committed by him shows he "cannot be reformed".
Jha's modus operandi was to behead and chop the body parts of the victims leading to their death. He then dumped the headless bodies outside Tihar Jail."
It doesn't take much Googling to find all kinds of cases around the world of killers, including husbands, beheading their victims. It is not a Muslim 'thing': it is a killer thing. It is something sick people do, sick people of all cultures, sexes, and backgrounds.
Jeffry Dahmer beheaded his victims too.
You can face the real facts, or you can choose to be ignorant because it fits in with your biases. Up to you.
