"A video posted Tuesday on an Islamic militant Web site showed the beheading of an American civilian in Iraq, and said the execution was carried out by an al-Qaida affiliated group to avenge the abuse of Iraqi prisoners by American soldiers"

This belongs in the current affairs forum...
Not meaning to be insensitive but I am not at all surprised over this. |

Doh! I forgot about the current affairs forum. Sorry. No, unfortunately it doesn't surprise4 me either, but it doesn't lessen the blow, knowing that something like this was going to happen.
Z, feel free to move this thread...

Two comments.
One, any of you who think Al-Qaeda wouldn't have done this if the poor widdle Iraqi prisoners hadn't been 'humiliatd', I have some Florida swampland I'd like to sell you.  The Dems are upset about W referring to 9/11 in his ads, but their media sycophants show the beheading. Clearly a double standard. [img]graemlins/rant.gif[/img]

Interesting really, Does the militants really think that by beheading the poor guy's head that everything will change according to what they want? I think not.
Overhere the TV only show the guy saying his name etc and then it was censored when one of the militant take off his knife. |
