The two are brutally executed beheaded with a small combat knife. Echoing previous beheading recorded by insurgents, the head is held up to the cheers of onlookers and then placed on the body.
This month has seen an escalation in sectarian atrocities committed by insurgents, who have been publicly armed and supported by America, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Turkey and other actors. Indeed, the atrocities are coinciding with further arms transfers with new advanced weaponry witnessed in the hands of militants in the past number of weeks.
The most recent beheading recorded on video and uploaded to the internet, reportedly took place in Idlib countryside.
Recently, a Catholic priest was executed by foreign militants. The monastery in which he resided was burnt and looted, echoing the events of a massacre in Homs last month which resulted in the entire population of a Christian village being wiped out and their houses and possessions burnt. Two Christian bishops who were kidnapped by Chechen gunmen in Aleppo earlier this year, are still missing.
As well as Christians, Shia villages are receiving the brunt of a boldly-confident insurgency. This newly-found confidence has resulted in having just recently received confirmation of Americas intent to supply them with more weapons. Last week, militants massacred dozens of villagers in the provinces town of Hatla. Since then, summary executions and sectarian house-to-house raids have taken place.
The reported beheading of the two Christians comes about the same time America has started sending arms to rebel fighters, the Wall Street Journal revealed this week. The Journal reported the Central Intelligence Agency just began transporting weapons to Jordan for eventual transfer to Syrian fighters.
The weapons transfer is aimed at helping Free Syrian forces oust Mr. Assad. Its scheduled to coincide with arms shipments from other European and Arab allies for a planned and coordinated rebel attack set for August, the Journal reported.
Hmmm. They need to granted amnesty immediately. To behead the Christians that Americans just are too lazy to behead themselves.
Our Muslim president doing what he told us he would do.
When things get ugly he will side with the Muslims.
he and Pelosi both claim to be Christians. She kills babies, he kills Christians.
Neither of these two lying sack of dog crap know what truth Justice and the American way means. Both are trying to destroy all America stands for.
nice one God, where are You
trying and succeeding.
The Russians ain’t gonna like this.
Clearly, Hussein Obama has us fighting on the wrong side.
We don’t need to be involved in this at all.
Obama, you bastard! They did this with blades sharpened with our tax dollars!
You probably would not understand His answer, considering the pointed finger of accusation.
Somebody out there knows how to make money off destabilization.
Libya. That went so well.
Egypt. That went so well.
Syria. That’s gonna go well.
It must have gone well for someone or we wouldn’t keep doing it. I hate conspiracy theory with a passion; I devoutly believe in Hanlon’s Law (never attribute to malice that which is explainable by stupidity). All the talk about Iraq and Blackwater seemed folly when GWB was talking freedom. But someone, some group is pulling strings, because you cannot explain our Mideast policy by stupidity. Even my dumb dog learned you can’t eat a hornet.
Just what Obama would love to do to Tea Party members...
Well, at least his allies can get away with it.
O heavenly King, O Comforter, the Spirit of Truth
who are in all places and fillest all things:
Treasury of good things and Giver of life:
Come and dwell in us and cleanse us from every stain,
and save our souls, O good One.
May their Memory be Eternal!
Same place as where He was when His only-Begotten Son was hanging on a cross.
Thank you God for Putin. He’s the only one who can stop this madness.
We have switched sides in the “war on terror”.
Our government is arming people who are massacring Christians.
God help them, and God forgive us.
According to John McCain, we can’t waterboard Islamist terrorists to gain information, but it is OK to support the so-called rebels with American weapons as they behead people. Are we supplying the “combat knives” being used to lop off heads?
God was with the dying men, and will be sitting in judgment on the killers.
I also believe that God is calling us to help our fellow Christians, but we are led by a fellow who is not really into that.
I recall David asking God where He was many times. I think most of us do at times.
Were these the two men who were kidnapped?
Obama’s chosen rebels..and his silence on the matter is his tacit approval of these tactics.
