Washington Post: Islamic State video shows beheading of Russian intelligence agent

MOSCOW — The Islamic State released a video showing the beheading of a Russian intelligence officer it accused of spying on the group in Syria.

The video, which was released on media accounts associated with the Islamic State on Monday, showed the gruesome murder of Capt. Yevgeny Petrenko, 36, whom the Islamic State said had infiltrated Islamist groups in Kazakhstan and the North Caucasus region of Russia before he was caught last year by the Islamic State in Syria.

The video was accessed through a copy provided on the site of the SITE Intelligence Group, which monitors extremist publications and media. It confirmed the video on Tuesday.

In an interview apparently given under duress, Petrenko, an agent for the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB), said he had been abandoned by the Russian government and called on it to end its military campaign in Syria.

If ISIS wanted more attention from the Russian military, this is good way to go about it.

The U.S. and Europe should send all ISIS terrorists caught in the U.S. or Europe to Russia.

I mean what will stupid ass liberals in Sweden do with ISIS terrorists? Give them a stipend.

I think ISIS terrorists need to be impaled. With a good impaling a person can take 3 days to go. You do that and ISIS will give up, fight civilized or become civilized.
