Archive: Peter Kassig explains why he wanted to help Syrians in audio ...



"We are heartbroken to learn that our son, Abdul-Rahman Peter Kassig, has lost his life as a result of his love for the Syrian people and his desire to ease their suffering," Ed and Paula Kassig said in a statement posted on Twitter.

"You know we would have a chance here to make up for a lot wrong that we did in this part of the world if we stepped in, in the right way," he can be heard saying.

"How much did I impact the political situation inside Syria? None. How much did I impact the political situation back home? None.

"But what I did do is that over a period of time in that hospital I was able to share a little bit of hope and comfort with some people.

"They were able to teach me something about themselves that I wouldn't have known otherwise and we each were able to look at the conflict in a different way."
