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.

As if it's not bad enough as it is, here's another thread with some evidence that the film has been edited, that the murder of this man actually took a whole minute and a half longer than is thought now.

When the first pictures of prison abuses were published, Americans from all walks of life stood up in unison and swore (assume falsetto voice) "We're not like that. They (the soldiers) are at fault."

Unfortunately, they are right - we're not like that. But our enemy is and we'd better damned well get that way soon or we're going to lose this friggin' war! We cannot continue to fight with one hand tied behind our backs and expect to win!

The people of the middle east have never had a true representative government. Instead, they've had a long line of kings, sheiks, dictators and administrators, none of whom have had the best interests of the people in mind. If the king and the people all lived well that was well and good, but it was strictly coincidental, not a requirement. Because of this 3000 year-old tradition, the people have no concept of freedom as we know it and will never be able to hold onto it if we give it to them now.

As a natural by-product of that same 3000 years, they do understand power. They understood Saddam and his brutality, just as they now understand Al Queda. If we fail to forcefully punish those who have perpetrated this outrage, along with those who remain silent regarding the whereabouts of the "things," we will be seen as weak and dishonorable. Certainly, there will be colatteral casualties, perhaps a lot of them, but better they be Iraqi casualties than Americans.

On 9/11 I watched the towers fall, then drove my daughter to school to ask that she be excused for that day. I found the teachers all clustered around a tv, watching the carnage in New York. I remember telling the Kindergarten teacher that it was going to get much worse before it got better. She didn't believe me then. I wonder if she does now. I wonder if she would believe that it must get still worse. It will.

Outrage at this is understandable but it will have no effect on these monsters whatsoever. Let me repeat what I have said on other threads:

They are the ones who have set the stage. When someone has the unwavering intention to fight you to the death you cannot change their mind and you cannot negotiate the rules of engagement with them. There are only two possible outcomes. The choice is ours, they have made theirs.

We can submit or we can fight. That is the only choice the leave us with.

i'm new at this, so please bear with me...i just heard on the local news that the brother of nick berg, after hearing the briefing this morning from baghdad, with comments about his brother not being in U S custody, stormed out of his home screaming for a cnn or new york times reporter...he would talk to no one else...his sister practically dragged him back into the house...

I never would of thought the 21st century would be at war with 7th century savages.

They want us to believe the "things" worship the same God we do. There god may be great, but ours is greater and they will be punished just like they have been throughout history.

Don't watch the video out of respect for Berg and his family!

That's ridiculous. Whether we watch it or not (and I have), it will have zero impact on Berg's family as they are immersed in their own personal pain.

Americans need to see this - I'm sick to death of the sanitized "news" foisted on us by all the networks, including Fox. These subhumans need to be seen for what they are.

Time for some reposting. I had written on another thread in response to AuntB's post of: It's time to cut to the chase here and fight this thing like a war. It's time for a Harry Truman moment. Screw the attorneys, politicians, peacenicks, Geneva Convention and the rest. Give the collateral damage 24 hours notice to enter camps. Then go in to the cities, bomb, shoot, run over any thing else that moves. Then give them their God forsaken piece of sand back and LEAVE.

I'm totally with you, right up until you say we should then leave. The following is an option we must now consider:

If we are going to do it this way, we ought to make the determination to make this a COLONY of the US. If we are going to do this, we ought to plant one of the MOST FORMIDIBLE MILITARY BASEs there that has ever been constructed in history, replete with all the most advanced weaponry. We take advantage of all that sand and virtually uninhabitable terrain to conduct very visible weapons testing. We use this as a base of operations to conduct all our future purgings of Islamofacist behavior. If we need more room, we take that, too. Any Islamic country who objects, we take them and their resources, too - we'll need them. If we are going to do this, we MAKE it FOR THE OIL and other resources, and take full advantage of that oil - every last drop of it. God knows we are more adept at utilizing the resources of this planet in a more productive manner than anyone else is - especially the Islamofacists - so we would be honoring the planet by doing so. Those in countries we occupy will get rich, too. There are a whole slew of African and Pacific rim countries that are crying for development of resources.

It is also time to do as stboz says: "Folks, it's time to start showing up outside mosques in this country. No violence....but, put them on the spot. Either you are with us or you are with the terrorists." "Moderate Islam" better show up and learn to get with us - for real - and pronto.

It is time to start letting the world know there are other methods of utilizing massive force than the way the US has been inclined to over the past century. CUT AND RUN IS NOT THE BEST WAY TO DO THIS.

"Awesome writing!!! Head covered cowards!! I will say no more. I am very angry."

Good! We need anger, an anger that steels itself into a very deliberate resolve. I pray we get there, because that is exactly what we need.

The poisonous weed called Islam must be ripped from American soil by the roots - all practitioners of that murderous cult should be expelled by any means.

No intent to offend! Gambling is one of the good guys and I'm glad the story was getting out. It is gruesome and horrific, but it's the truth and we need to face it. But you are right, it shouldn't have been there as it was easy to misconstrue. My sincere apologies. Again, there was no disrespect intended. Thanks for calling me on it.
