Abdul-Rahman Kassig: US hostage 'killed by IS'
bbc. ^ | 16 November 2014

A video posted online claims to show that Islamic State militants have killed the captured US aid worker Abdul-Rahman Kassig.

The video shows a masked man standing over a severed head which he says is that of Mr Kassig.

The US says it is working to determine the authenticity of the video, which also shows a mass beheading of 18 Syrian troops.

Mr Kassig, also known as Peter, was captured last year.

His family, who live in the US state of Indiana, said they were awaiting confirmation of the reports about their "treasured son".

"We prefer our son is written about and remembered for his important work and the love he shared with friends and family, not in the manner the hostage takers would use to manipulate Americans and further their cause," the family said in a statement.

My advice to stupid Western “idealists” is to steer clear of Muslim nations. Ply your trade elsewhere.

This is Islam.

Stupid Westerners still pretend its the Religion Of Peace.

No amount of brutality by Islamic terrorists will shake their faith in the goodness of Islam.

Peter Kassing converted to Islam but it apparently made no impression on his captors.

Even becoming a good Muslim is not enough to save one’s worthless, infidel, dhimmi, stinkin’ carcass.

On the plus side, one less idiot to go around apologizing for the religion of head-choppers.

Call it Kassig’s Darwin Candidate Award.

They are using the wrong translation!

It is the Religion of Cut Them to Pieces

This is so sad.

The trouble with idealists is that they are completely ignorant concerning human nature. No, man is not noble. Some are but most are not.

It reminds me of the guy who got eaten by a bear.

What on earth are they thinking - that people for whom murder is sanctified by their faith are going to be merciful to their enemies?

Islam is a brutal death cult. Once in, one’s life’s expectancy is about as good as an inner city gang member’s.

You never leave. Islam makes sure you leave on its terms.

Turning it into a mosque and head-chopping are not too far off in the future.

Any one who travels to a Muslim country is asking to be shish-kabobed.

Its amazing how some people are commonly bereft of common sense.

Amongst the boiler-suited captives murdered in cold blood is a man IS says is the former US soldier Peter Kassig, who converted to Islam and changed his name to Abdul-Rahman.

I say we let all the libtards who want to leave the US to go fight for ISIS get on a plane and go. We don't have laws against stupidity in the US, but the koranimals seem to have a cure for it once they arrive over there.

Like Dennis Prager’s, “I love people but humanity stinks.”

How’d that conversion to Islam work out? All you did was deny Jesus at a very inopportune time. I’m sorry.

will this decapitated Islamic American get his 72 virgins in Paradise? I bet he has a better chance than the fools who killed him. By killing a fellow muslim they have spit upon the teachings of Mohammed. This proved they are nothing but anti-western racists and that’s not in the koran.
