LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - The ISIS fighters were photographed hugging the two blindfolded men, supposedly "forgiving" them for their sins, according to the Daily Mail.
Seconds later, the couple was pummeled to death with hundreds of large rocks.
Surrounded by "bloodthirsty crowds" the new photos were taken in the ISIS-held territory in the province of Homs and shared over social media.
ISIS sympathizers immediately took the images as "proof" the ISIS terrorists have a real compassionate side.

According to the Daily Mail, the photos and the act all appear to be genuine and "there is nothing to suggest the victims mistakenly thought they had been pardoned."
Their calm demeanor is attributed to the likelihood of being drugged with a cocktail of medication to reduce anxiety before their deadly fate.
News of this strange and shocking murder comes as armed forces against ISIS are announced to finally receive the first batch of F-16 fighter jets in Iraq. After a four year long wait, the jets will arrive July 12 with U.S.-trained Iraqi pilots and spare parts, according to Lt. Gen. Anwar Hama Amin. The jets are expected to immediately carry out operations, according to the Defense Military's web site.
