US Secretary of State John Kerry makes a statement on the execution of American journalist Steven Sotloff during a ceremony at the State Department in Washington, DC, September 3, 2014. Secretary of State Kerry on Wednesday denounced the beheading of journalist Steven Sotloff as an act of "medieval savagery" and said the jihadists who killed him were not the true face of Islam. "The real face of Islam is not what we saw yesterday, when the world bore witness again to the unfathomable brutality of ISIL terrorist murders," Kerry said at a ceremony to honor the new special US envoy to Muslim communities.
