Parents break silence on son being held by IS
 
 Paula and Ed Kassig said they have been doing all they can to free Abdul-Rahman Kassig, 26, since he was captured in Syria more than a year ago. That includes appealing directly to his captors via YouTube and Twitter messages.
A militant threatened Kassig’s beheading in an October 3 video, in retaliation for US bombing attacks. The couple told CBS This Morning that the militants haveissued demands that are beyond their power to meet.
