It almost appears that way, doesn't it? They released the american journalist the other day...the one with the arabic spelled name, the one thanking al'sadr for his release.

G-D Bless Mr. Baldoni.

He wasn't executed, that is done by governments following the rule of law. He was murdered!

You're right, he was MURDERED. It was a slip of the tongue, I guess because that's what is reported in the media ALL THE TIME. Sorry. :(
