President Obama on Wednesday pledged that the U.S. would "degrade and destroy" the Islamist terrorist group responsible for the beheading of two American journalists, saying the U.S. was "repulsed" by the slayings.

"We will not be intimidated," Obama said during a joint press conference in Estonia. "Their horrific acts only unite us as a country and stiffen our resolve to take the fight against these terrorists. And those who make the mistake of harming Americans will learn that we will not forget, and that our reach is long and that justice will be served."
