Ahmed Obeid, a doctor who worked with U.S. aid worker Abdul-Rahman Kassig at a hospital in Tripoli, speaks during a news conference calling for his release in Tripoli, northern Lebanon November 8, 2014. Kassig, a 26-year-old humanitarian worker from Indiana whose first name was Peter before he converted to Islam while in captivity, was abducted on October 1, 2013.

Peter Kassig, whom ISIS claimed Sunday to have beheaded and who took the Muslim name Abdel Rahman after his conversion, was struggling to find meaning and purpose in life

Sometimes, your purpose in life is to serve as a warning to others.

[Balding_Eagle]

Some peoples purpose in life is to serve as an example to others on WHAT NOT TO DO.

perhaps he smoked too much hashish while over there...

“his love for the Syrian people and his desire to ease their suffering,”

So the parents were crazy liberals who actually thought that loving savages was a good idea. Sorry, loving savages gets them to hate you, because they are savages.

I blame the dude with the ginsu for his death... imagine that

[PeteePie]

Like a moth attracted to the flame, this poor guy fell for the religion of peace.

[Blood of Tyrants]

You cannot love a Muslim enough for him to stop hating you. Too many years of inbreeding and indoctrination.

So the parents were crazy liberals who actually thought that loving savages was a good idea.

They're probably still sitting around their living room bitching about how they aren't going to let "The Pope" or the Catholic Church tell them about what "morality" means.

I’d say he found his purpose...to bring even more notoriety to those animals.

[goldstategop]

People who are weak Christians or lack faith fall prey easily to the siren song of Islam.

And they also hate their own country. Is it any wonder Peter Kassig ended up getting his just desserts as a Muslim in an Islamic hellhole?

No sane person goes there.

His name was Peter in this photo

“He never thought that conflict was a solution.”

Did he cash his paychecks?

[Ted Grant]

I don’t agree, entirely. I think Islam speaks to the underdeveloped adolescent male mentality - bolstering a shallow masculinity as well as offering acceptance in an aggressive tribe. I totally can see how Islam appeals to a male.

I don’t see how Islam appeals much to females, except those that instinctively want to be dominated.

This is psycho-sexual stuff, folks.

“”We are heartbroken to learn that our son, Abdul-Rahman Peter Kassig, has lost his life....”

Eff him and cut his head off again!

Reminds me of Michael Rockefeller, collecting art...from the cannibals.

[dfwgator]

Michael asked them, “Hey, what’s for dinner?”, then they handed him a mirror.

LAY DOWN WITH DOGS AND YOU WILL GET FLEAS..EXCEPT THIS TIME YOU GET YOUR HEAD CHOPPED OFF..MAYBE THIS GUY WITH HIS DEATH CAN STOP OTHER IDIOTS FROM JOINING THE SAVAGES THAT ARE IGNORANT..

[T-Bone Texan]

Michael asked them, “Hey, what’s for dinner?”,...And why are you pouring this tasty marinade all over me, and why have you laid me upon a bed of lettuce, and what's with the apple you just stuck in my mouth?
