My Rage Over the Nick Berg Killing
Chron Watch ^ | 12 May 2004 | Barbara Stock

Posted on 05/12/2004 7:48:42 AM PDT by Lando Lincoln

An apology to the pigs of the world.

Last week I was outraged at the behavior of a handful of reservists and disgusted by the pictures that have been plastered all over every media source around the world. I am no longer outraged. Arrest those guilty, give them a fair trial, and put those found guilty in jail--end of story. No more apologies; no more hearings; no more embarrassment over what happened.

The hideous butcher of an American citizen by faceless terrorists and the video put out by creatures I used to refer to as ''animals'' has changed all that. As they held up this young man's severed head for the camera, I decided I will no longer call these sub-animals anything but ''things.'' Calling them animals and putting them in the same class with pigs, is an insult to pigs so I hereby issue a formal apology to all the pigs of the world. The swine of the world are far more ''human'' than these ''things'' that can cut an innocent man’s head off in a most gruesome fashion. They can’t even kill a helpless man--with his hands tied behind his back--with four ''things'' holding him down--in an efficient manner.

No, they hacked at his throat as he screamed in agony for 30 seconds before his misery was finally ended. What brave ''things'' these butchers are to kidnap a man who was there helping to rebuild Iraq. He was not a soldier. Nick Berg didn’t shoot anyone. He didn’t humiliate anyone and take pictures of the event. No, he just went there to work. As they ended this young man’s life, they were shouting, ''God is great!'' May Allah design a special place in hell for these ''things.''

These ''things'' are afraid of real soldiers. They can only butcher men with their hands bound. They can only blow up children and execute babies and pregnant women. They are cowards.

''Things'' hide in holy places and defile them with their evil. A ''thing'' bravely covers his head so no one can see his evil face as he murders. This ''thing'' doesn’t want anyone to know how much he enjoys what he is doing. That’s why he does it. He likes doing it. He doesn’t care about the Iraqi people--he never has and he never will. He just enjoys killing. He is a soulless creature who exists on a different plane from humans. If there are such things as demons, these ''things'' are they.

The ''things'' say it is punishment for what happened in the Abu Ghraib prison to Iraqi prisoners. What is the excuse for the butcher of Danny Pearle? What was his crime? For what was he punished? There were no humiliating pictures being flashed around the world when Danny had his throat slit by some Islamic guardian of the gates of hell.

The American outrage over the treatment of the Iraqi prisoners was immediate and loud. Where is the Muslim outrage as these ''things'' butcher in the name of their God? Where is the anger over the image that has become the face of Islam? Islam has become a faith of death, hate, and murder in the eyes of the civilized world.

When the war on terror began on September 11, 2001, I didn’t blame Muslims for the carnage. Last week I didn’t blame Muslims as a whole for the butchery seen now around the world. My opinion is changing, however.

Three thousand people were murdered on 9/11. Several hundred were murdered in Spain. Last week a woman who was eight months pregnant and her children--including a two year old--were gunned down in Israel. Two ''things'' dressed as women tried to wreak havoc at a memorial for this woman just a few days ago. Israeli soldiers sent them to their fate. Their fate is to stand before Allah and try to explain the killing of babies in his name.

Islam has brought death and destruction to every continent on the face of this planet. Where does it end? When does it become so much mindless killing that Islam will rise up and destroy the evil within? A terrorist is a terrorist whether in Iraq, here in America, Spain, or Israel. All are killing in the name of your God--killing in the name of Allah--but when will Muslims become outraged? Will Muslims ever become outraged? Does Islam quietly rejoice at the actions of the ''things''? Muslim silence is speaking volumes. Either Islam approves of the killing or it is afraid of the ''things'' that have stolen the Islamic faith and refuses to stand up to them. If Muslims do not reclaim their religion, it will be forever lost, strangled to death by the blood of innocent people.

If the Muslims of the world do not step forward and demand that the killing ends, the bloodbath will go on and on. As Muslims allow their sons and daughters to be indoctrinated into a climate of hate, where the throat-slitting of innocents and the killing of babies is cheered as a great victory for Allah, the hate will grow, but not as Muslims expect. The hate will come from our side.

Americans will no longer care if we blow up a mosque. If the ''things'' are hiding there, blow it up. If terrorists hide in Islam’s holy shrines, they are no longer holy but black holes that lead straight to hell. Any Muslim that houses them as guests becomes the enemy and will die as a terrorist and Allah will judge silent Muslims as harshly he judges the terrorists. If mainstream Islam does not speak out against terrorist acts and take steps to condemn such acts and stop the killing, the blood of thousands will be on their hands as much as it is on the terrorists’ hands. The dead are crying out for justice. The only justice for these ''things'' is death. I doubt that Allah will have any mercy on their souls.

As to Americans, we have been reminded of what the enemy really is--a ''thing.'' Terrorists are faceless, soulless creatures that must be exterminated from the face of earth. ''Things'' and all who harbor them must cease to exist. If terrorism is not stopped, it will corrupt all and evil will win. Satan is joyous this day--his minions have made him very proud.

I saw it too.

His eyes couldn't have been bigger as his mouth flopped open detatched from his body. He had NO clue on what was going to happen.

As per example to my post above; already a day after and CBS wastes no time blaming Nick Bergs murder on the US. Blame the killers? Oh of course not.

A U.S. spokesman says contrary to what Nick Berg's family has claimed, Iraqi police — not coalition forces detained the young man. He was later released, captured and killed on video by militants.

I think it is time to get rid of the word “terrorist.”

When that word began to be used, it had meaning and shock value. Now it has neither.

The beheading of Nick Berg have shown just how barbaric some of these people are; hence, they should be called what they are: barbarians.

This should help freedom-loving people everywhere; for, as any student of history knows, barbarians must be dealt in the severest of ways or they will win.

I believe President Bush was right to take the war to them. He had a clear choice: to fight this war on the streets of our cities or take it to them. I believe he made the right choice, but that does not mean that the outcome is certain.

I don’t advocate turning Iraq into a parking lot with nuclear weapons, but unless we wipe out the barbarians who mean to topple us, they will succeed.

If I had to choose between a civilized nation and a band of barbarians, I’d bet on the barbarians every time. As the Romans learned, barbarians can topple the most advanced civilization.

It is time we got over the horror of the beheading and got good and mad. We need to start right here at home and recognize who is waging the battle from within...the DNC, and the Hate America First crowd. They really don't understand that President Bush took the battle to the middle east because he didn't want it on the streets of New York and L.A. If the DNC wins, it is all over for America because Kerry will run not walk to the U.N. This organization is mired in scandle, and what is going on with the so called hearings is taking the scandle and who had their hands in the till, right off the front pages. Think folks.....think!!

These "things" will not stand before "allah". They will stand before God Almighty. Believing in their "allah" does not make it exist. There is not a God Condo in the sky housing all the different gods people choose to worship.

Islam is devil worship. That's all there is to it.

And on the subject...to all the liberals that are saying this act was retaliation and that we should have expected this: Is that an admission that the muslim world occupants are sub-human animals? It seems so, since we should have known beforehand.

CNN's morning news at 7:30 PDT spoke of the so-called prisoner abuse in Iraq but made no mention of Nick Berg-his horrific murder is now apparently 'old news'. Expect a general media 'blackout' on this story in the next day or two.

I have not seen the video and don't plan to. I heard the audio this morning on Glenn Beck. It was horrific.

Funny, the media only mentioned he screamed as in it was a very short scream-like it was nothing. The guy screamed for the entire 30 seconds.

I think all the media outlets should play the audio over and over again. But they won't.

What has changed? The Berg atrocity is nothing new. What outrages me is the inability of many to recollect what we're dealing with and put things in their proper proportion. Never forget 9/11!

If that video outrages you, consider your rage when the liberal slime elitist media all but ignores it in a day or two, if they haven`t already, and continues to harp on about Abu Ghraib.

That is the VERY REASON the beheading of Mr. Berg should be shown everytime someone shows the photos of the "ATROCITIES" (yes they have been often described that way) at Abu Gharib. People NEED to know, to see, to experience true and utter EVIL rather than it being described using the same words that were used to describe the prison abuse.

Our society FORGETS much too quickly, MOVE ON is a catch phrase, OLD NEWS is a catch phrase, inspired by and used by the leftists that HATE this country. They know our attention span is very short and they capitalize on that fault daily.

"Even in light of the recent Army scandal at Abu Ghraib, the difference between cultures is plainly visible for all to see."

This is not plainly seen by liberals, McLame and the 'efin press at all. Without a doubt there are far too many enemies among us to win this war easily. The lines are being drawn that clearly indicate right versus wrong. In my sphere of family and friends there will be no doubt where I stand.

I saw the video and still pictures yesterday and had a very tough time sleeping last night.

All I kept thinking about was did his parents and siblings see this? Would they watch it or how can they avoid it? It will be out there for eternity and that fact coupled with what happened to this kid kept me tossing all night.

This is going to backfire in the faces of the Islamic-scum; even the e-mail's to CNN from "hardened democrats" are saying we should ruthlessly kill all these bastards in Iraq now.

I support our President but I really hope he hears and feels America's rage today!

The beheading story is already barely appearing in the European press that I have scanned, but the "horrific US military prison abuses" story is front and center.

That's obviously how it's going to be handled. Just let it go away; after all, we've forgotten 9/11, Daniel Pearl, the 4 contractors in Fallujah, etc. easily enough, so there's no reason we shouldn't forget this one, too.

I just found out my father had worker with him--he took a safety construction course with Mr. Berg--my mom has a few letters mentioning him at a certification thing for construction.

I still want to know--and of CORSE NOT putting aside what the soldiers may have or not done--

but--the terrorist don't NEED an excuse to kill any "Un-Believer there" anyhow right--

but they blame this is for the abuses from the pictures.

weren't those photos STOLEN??

and , wasn't CBS and the press TOLD ( what I am sure they KNEW) about the CONSEQUENCES of showing these photos in the first place,?

At my High School-- everyone said that showing the pictures was like showing a photo of Kobe Brian hitting a wall or something on a bad day--it was just a thing that happened once--and releasing it could only do bad.

I believe in free press--but, since the story was never covered right in the first place--I kind of doubt the agenda that it is "news" behind it.

"Things" does not begin to describe those who need to be sought out exterminated. I believe a proper term would be "MUTANTS", because they are terminally flawed beings in the form of mankind.

The media blackout will not matter. This seed has been planted.

All the Media's Horsemen and all the Media's Men could not, did not and shall not drag the court of public opinion to the point of "outrage" over the prison story. The public has shrugged, chuckled privately, and whispered an "atta'boy" over the "abuse" of murderous prisoners in Iraq.

The gross act of beheading an innocent American will remain in the minds of the public. It won't go away just because of a lack of media attention.

Like I said to a friend about the prison story last week, the terrorist have something for the liberals to exploit, and they will, but just wait a few days and the Islam Idiots will screw it up for themselves and the liberals holding their hands. And sure'nuff!

We have a different war at home also. If we do not defeat these self serving liberals at home we are bound to fail.
