When the Jordanian government insisted on being provided with a piece of evidence that the pilot is still alive, they staged that fake execution, for PR purposes.

I don't find that theory very plausible, but I haven't watched the video, yet.
That's a garble of the original rumour. That is that they already burnt the pilot before starting to negotiate for a PoW release. Based on the official information, it's plausable, but since the unofficial information is what counts... It's hard to telll.

I'm not planning to see that video, but are there any time indicators in the video? Because if they talk in generic "this is what happens to those who oppose us" rather than a more specific mention of a failed PoW exchange, it's fairly plausable.
