ISIS bans beheading videos - because they're bad for murderous terror group image
ISIS chief Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has sent a letter to all his media offices saying they were no longer allowed to release graphic footage
He has sent a letter to all his media offices saying they were no longer allowed to release graphic footage.
He is said to have claimed the decision was based on not offending other Muslims, who might think the videos will frighten their children.
But Syrian politician and lawyer Ferid Hisso warned it was likely there will be no let up in the cruel and inhuman acts in ISIS-controlled territory.
He said: “Instead of banning the release of such videos, Baghdadi should have banned the crimes behind the scenes.”
Meanwhile, David Cameron pledged to help America "destroy" ISIS extremists in Syria as he gave his clearest signal yet that UK forces could be asked to join air strikes.

The Prime Minister said he wanted Britain to "step up and do more" if he could secure the approval of Parliament as he prepared to issue a stark warning to home-grown would-be jihadists that IS wanted them as "cannon fodder".
He will use a speech tomorrow to set out what aides said would be "significant" elements of the Government's strategy to combat the threat from fundamentalist terrorism for the next five years.
The decision to invite Labour's interim leader Harriet Harman to a National Security Council briefing on the threat last week was seen as a further step to prepare the ground for a possible parliamentary vote to extend air strikes in the autumn.
