Kenji Goto had gone to Syria to try to save the other Japanese hostage Haruda Yukawa.
But how is Japan going to hold them responsible without helping to destroy them militarily? If you do not, this will simply continue.

Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said Sunday he is “infuriated” by the purported beheading of journalist Kenji Goto by the Islamic State group and vowed to hold the terror group responsible.
“I feel indignation over this immoral and heinous act of terrorism,” Abe told reporters after convening an emergency Cabinet meeting.
“When I think of the grief of his family, I am left speechless,” he said. “We are filled with deep regret.”
Japan ordered heightened security precautions Sunday and said it would persist with its non-military support for fighting terrorism.
