New ISIS video shows beheading of American hostage Peter Kassig… Just when is it that the U.S. is going to set out to kill Obama’s Islamic Bastards already?! The White House said Sunday that a review of an Islamic State video confirms that American hostage Peter Kassig, an aid worker and former Army Ranger, has been beheaded by the terror group. In the nearly 16-minute video uploaded to social networks, a black-clad militant with his face concealed stands before a severed head that he says is that of the U.S. aid worker. Obama confirmed the videos authenticity on Sunday, saying in a statement the act was pure evil. The video was posted shortly after Obama departed for Washington from the G-20 summit in Australia. White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said Obama was briefed by National Security Adviser Susan Rice while in flight. Ed and Paula Kassig, Peters parents, released a statement early Sunday saying they were aware of the reports of their sons death. They also asked that media outlets not post any images or video distributed by Islamic State, better known as ISIS or ISIL. We prefer our son is written about and remembered for his important work and the love he shared with friends and family, the statement read, not in the manner the hostage takers would use to manipulate Americans and further their cause. The video also showed what appeared to be the mass beheading of more than a dozen captured Syrian soldiers, but did not show the beheading of Kassig, 26. Showing the execution of the soldiers is a departure from previous videos, which did not depict the act of beheading. The soldiers executioners are not wearing masks in the video and warn they will carry out similar actions outside the region.
