An appointed by Quilliam forensic digital analyst came in addition to the conclusion that the way in which the was neck removed to clean seems “to a simple beheading to be,” said Winter.
Kassig not oppose execution
Experts suspect for some time that the former elite soldier Kassig was beheaded in the same way as other IS-hostages. In contrast to previous videos of executions, was in his case that is not shown on the murder. This suggests that fought Kassig and the jihadists recordings did not show that a struggling prisoner would be bad propaganda.
