"They think the reaction to this may bring out violent tendencies in americans and our military. I hope they are right."

I hope they've misunderestimated.

No time to read this thread, so I'm sure I'm repeating what has been said. I'll do it anyway. Call the alpahbet soup Networks, Biden, Kennedy, Kerry all of the ba$tards There is blood on there hands for the hyperbole

What ever we did in that prison can NEVER compare to this. At least we never beheaded one of them.......

If the following you mentioned ever thought that this would never happen to our people over there, they have another thought coming. Those idiots needed an excuse! And since CNN put the prison on air, that's all the excuse they needed. God help us all!

After reading a statement, the men were seen pulling the man to his side and putting a large knife to his neck. A scream sounded as the men cut his head off, shouting “Allahu Akbar!” — “God is great.”

Hmmmm ... I see no difference between Muslims and Aztecs now.

You're right. How do I contact the administrators to ask them to remove my post no. 81?

Damn straight.

Bad move on part of terrorists. They had Americans depressed and on the defensive, Media, Democrats and Europeans feeling superior and emboldened.

I am feeling true anger and rage right now. I am a Catholic mother of two who would like nothing better right now than to nuke the entire middle east. If I am feeling this way others must too.

I didn't think this depression about the abuse would go away so fast but, I am now more resolved to clean up that part of the world. I don't want that kind of future waiting for my kids.

Mine didn't bounce, so let's hope that means that they're getting a deluge of email over this.

Michael S. Berg, Teacher, Prometheus Methods Tower Service, Inc., West Chester, PA

Someone by his name, in his business, from his home town, is listed as a signatory to a CANSWER anti-war petition. Hmmm. Very interesting.

The soldier who reported the abuse through his chain of command was absolutely right to do so. The traitors who gave classified evidence to the media to attack America are to blame.

So true! Have they said who gave this evidence to the press?

indeed this guy probably did have his neck sawed off, a favorite techinque of jihadis worldwide... have you ever seen the video of the Russian soldier whose head was cut off by Chechen fighters? They used what must have been the dullest knife in existance, it took a full minute to cut him from ear to ear and the gurgling noises were pretty gross.

"What will it take? Does anyone care to speculate?"

Mass graves like Saddam had. If they're shown if they commit an act that their deed will result in ALL their family to be exterminated, they actually try thinking first...

I say that ANY politician that has gone overboard on the NAKED prisoners story and doesn't CONDEMN this should have their HEAD BLOTTED OUT or they should be filmed only from the NECK down whenever they speak on TV.

This will cut out their FACE time since they are so hypocritical, starting with Kennedy.

Kennedy is all wet, has long ago driven off the bridge between honor and dishonor and fataly drowned any credibility he had.

More and more each day he shows how much America owes a real hero, Mary Jo Kopeckny, for keeping Ted out of the WH. She unwilling and unwittingly gave her life for this country but is a hero nontheless.

[quote]I just heard a report on FOX NEWS and one word used for the description of the video that he witnessed was 'degrading', I had to turn FOX NEWS off........first they use the word TORTURE to describe the degradation in the prison, now they use the word degradation to describe a BEHEADING. We have got to start taking the WOT seriously, VERY seriously and stop castigating ourselves.[/quote]

Agreed, when do we move more troops back into Afghanistan and finish what we started?

That's the name of his father. He is Nick. (This was pointed out to me by someone else a few posts above, after I made the same mistake).

A few??? More than a few here equate some frat house pranks on Iraqi terrorists with stringing Americans from bridges and be-heading them. Disgraceful.

I agree. It's amazing how many on Free Republic have their "panties" in a wad over these relatively silly and insignificant prison incidents.

I for one and losing confidence on our ability to fight this war, if we are all becoming so separated from rational thought and reality. Posting again because of server error.....

".....remove....."

Nah...........I wouldn't worry about it. Either they'll scroll the Thread and notice the correction, or you can address it directly with them if they query you.

The victim, Nick Berg, was a Bush supporter.

Shepherd Smith just described the beheading and yes, a poster was correct that his head was sawed off.
I'm sick.
