Someone please send this to John McCain because maybe he’d like to pose with this mob of Syrian Rebels as he hands them weapons:

CBN NEWS – Israel —  Grizzly stories of murders, rapes, and beheadings by Islamists are increasingly appearing in the news. The latest: the brutal public murder of three Catholics in Syria, attended by a cheering crowd.

The execution of Father Francois Murad, a Syrian Catholic priest, and two others was posted by Live Leak, Catholic Online reported Sunday.

According to a report published by TheBlaze last week, Syrian rebels took Murad and two others from a monastery in the northern town of Gassanieh.

The priest was the first victim, Catholic Online reported, followed by the two others. Their executioner appears to use a kitchen knife after which their severed heads are placed on top of their bodies.

Dozens of observers capture the scene on smartphones as the mob chants Allahu Akbar (Allah is greater) “with jihadi rapture,” the report said. Some men are seen taking close-up photos of the bodies.

Catholic Online gives this warning:

This should make it clear to Christians around the world what jihadists are about. Make no mistake. Catholics and Christians around the globe are under dire threat, particularly from the spread of militant Islam. Until the threat is recognized and taken seriously, martyrdoms like this will continue.

We have a link to video provided via LiveLeak. We must warn you, the video is extremely graphic. We believe the first victim is Father Francois, and the second victim that is depicted is another person said to be a collaborator with the Assad regime.

The video CLEARLY depicts the beheadings of these victims. DO NOT follow the link unless you are over the age of 18, and are prepared to view content of this nature.

Catholic Online believes it is very important the world knows that Christians are being murdered for their faith, and that martyrdom isn’t an ancient phenomenon.
