Sky News published a photo Friday of Mohammed Emwazi, who officials say is the masked frontman for IS hostage beheading videos. The photo ( http://bit.ly/1G0K0V9 ), taken from University of Westminster student records, shows Emwazi wearing a hat with the Pirates’ distinctive “P” logo. The AP has been unable to verify the photo.
The Pirates said in a statement that it was sickening to everyone in the organization “to see this murderer wearing a Pirates cap in this old photo.” The team says the gold “P” stands for Pittsburgh and is worn by players, coaches and fans with pride.
Emwazi was born in Kuwait, raised and educated in Britain and is a computer science graduate.

Is this a portrait of a person described by pres Obama as having no education and from a deprived background,I don’t think so.
surprised he wasn’t wearing a Mets cap… Only the Mets invest in Madoff… The Mets can make any fan go nuts…
I’m not Jewish but this site is a real excellent example of how good people act. Islam is a cancer not a religion. May the Lord always bless Israel.
His cap tells it the way it is: He is a pirate!!
