The AP fell for it, because they wanted too. AP is a bunch of "Chicken littles".

Watch how fast this erroneous report is corrected. Compare the velocity of correction with the (still uncorrected) report that Swift boat veteran Elliott has retraceted ANY part of his July 21 affidavit (he has not retracted any part of it, never did).

American fakes own decapitation in tape
BREAKING NEWS
The Associated Press
Updated: 8:16 a.m. ET Aug. 7, 2004SAN FRANCISCO - A video aired Saturday that purportedly showed an American being decapitated was a hoax. The man, reached by The Associated Press in San Francisco, said he videotaped the staged beheading at his friend’s house using fake blood.

On the tape, Benjamin Vanderford, 22, sat on a chair in a dark room, his hands behind his back, trembling and rocking back and forth. The tape showed a hand with a knife cutting at the motionless man’s neck, but did not show any militants.

Interesting phone #. SF is 415 area code. Probably lives with Mommy and Daddy in Walnut Creek (affluent east bay suburb).

After further review, that phone prefix initiates from Hayward, Ca. East Bay south of Oakland.

Locking up the endorsement from Al Qaeda will be a big boost for his campaign.
