Useful reminder of what we are up against. The left should be forced to read this.

Regards, Ivan

>>It was now that Quattrocchi made repeated pleas to have the blindfold lifted. “You who speak Italian, please grant me a last wish,” he shouted to Abu Yussuf. “Remove my blindfold and let me die the Italian way.” <<

A brave man. A good man.

I respect him deeply for his honor and courage.

“We turned him over as I filmed and removed the blindfold to film where the bullet had gone in and where it came out at the back of his head.”

Thank God it was only a blindfold and not panties.

The left has probably read it already, but their hatred for Bush has blinded their common sense, and patriotism.

It was in a telephone call before dawn that I was summoned by Abu Yussuf. I knew little about him except that he was in a cell that had kidnapped Quattrocchi and three other Italian hostages in April.

How did this reporter know the names of members of a terror cell.

I'm speechless.

Abu Yussuf conveyed this request to his comrades but it was denied. Moments later one of three fighters standing by the grave cried “Allahu akbar” (God is great) and killed Quattrocchi with a single bullet while Abu Yussuf recorded the spectacle with a video camera.

Some God they worship.

Why didn't the reporter tell the US forces he was meeting with this pig, and turn him in???

Abu Yussuf said the captors had been paid $4m (£2.2m) to let them live. Gino Strada, an Italian surgeon involved in attempts to broker their release, said he had been told by “sources in Iraq” that $9m (£4.9m) had changed hands.

This isn't going to be very helpful if our allies are going to enrich the enemy like this.

You KNOW the answer to that, because they aren't on our side.
Simple as that.

We can call them all the names in the book, but we must not underestimate them. They may be worthless in a conventional war, but they have perfected terrorism and using the press and their useful idiot supporters in the west.

Defeating these people will require nerves of steel and resolve.

He should be prosecuted by the Italian govt. as an accesory to murder.

You are correct in your title: MUST READ.

These IslamoFascistJihadists must ALL BE KILLED, along with their offspring.

I think the WOT will eventually lead to that, so why waste any more time fiddling around with this Politically Correct strategy?

It is time for the IslamoFascistJihadists to feel the wrath of American Military Power. I say start with Fallujah and slaughter everyone that even looks remotely connected to them. There should be at least 15,000 IslamoFascistJihadists dead bodies stinking up that town. The stench of death should permeate the air there for years.

As George Wallace said so well a generation ago, "I'm tired of all this PUSSYFOOTIN' around!".

Very chilling reading, but I thank you for posting it. Slowly but surely as these tactics are uncovered we will find ways to counter them. Personally, I would just bomb the whole city, good ones and bad ones, and know that if they eventually got the message that I had saved a lot of American lives. They've made it pretty clear they consider it us or them, and they've openly declared war on us to make sure we get the point. I would give them back their cursed country, then use whatever troops it takes to put up cordon around it that NO ONE could get through without our permission. I would cut off their airline service and their communications via satellite to the rest of the world and they could just spend what's left of their worthless lives fighting with each other over the dwindling supplies. I am a firm believer in 'live and let live' but when it comes down to me or them I am going to do everything in my power to make certain it's them. And it if turns out to be me, a lot of them are going to go with me. We'll all stand before the judgment throne and we'll see who gets virgins and who is sent to everlasting torment in the fires of hell. I am completely and totally fed up with the whole idea of their religion of peace. Everyone of them is the worst kind of coward. The militants because they never take on anyone who stands a chance of beating them and the non-militants because they don't have the courage to stand up to the others.
