"...the couple raised their 13-year-old daughter to believe that everybody in the world is good..."Her first question to me is, `Why would anybody hurt my daddy?'..."

Honey, you remember when I told you that "everybody in the world is good?"
Well, I was lying.

From looking at the video, it appears that the guy they beheaded was not Hensley but was Armstrong.

Each beheading seems to become more gruesome.

This poor man was awake and conscious until the end :(

DON'T WATCH THIS VIDEO!

It's 10 times worse than the Berg video and I came close to vomiting watching this. HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE stuff.

There was about 7 minutes of the usual speech reading crap while he was tied up in an orange jumpsuit visibly shaking and rocking back and forth.

This will give you nightmares.

I agree with Finnman69.

This is one of the worst yet.

Patty Hensley told ABC that the couple raised their 13-year-old daughter to believe that everybody in the world is good

How can anybody be so clueless?

Patty Hensley told ABC that the couple raised their 13-year-old daughter to believe that everybody in the world is good.

At 13, the daughter be taught the truth, but that's my opinion.

Al-Zarqawi "has beheaded the first American. The group will next behead the others," the statement said.

Should have cleaned out Fallujah when the Marines were there and had the terrorists confined to one area of the city. Instead, damn PC got the troops to pull back. Damn PC kept al-Sadr alive and a thorn.

Family friends were seen coming and going from John Hensley's house, as news spread that a Web site posting had claimed one of the American hostages in Iraq was beheaded Monday.

Oh my! Marietta is right around the corner from me!

Words cannot express the sorrow I feel for the family of the man who was murdered. I pray for strength and comfort for them in this horrible time. And as inadequate as words are to express my sorrow they also fail to express the hate I have for those who would kill innocents in the name of their god. Part of me takes great comfort in my belief that they will stand before the throne of the true God someday and be forced to give an accounting for their lives, but another part would even now pray for their souls and their salvation. As the great old Southern Gospel song says, "This world is not my home, I'm just a passing through." The God I serve tells me to do good to those who would harm me and to pray for my enemies. I'm not at that point in my walk with God yet, and frankly not too sure I will ever be at that point. All I can say is thank God for knowing that I am only human and providing me with a means to get right with Him! God bless this family!

These beheadings are outfreakingrageous. After the first one I thought, "we'll really kick some ass now." But now I've lost count of these things though I am no less incredulous, no less outraged everytime these f*cking animals pull this.

I admit I'm out of the mass media loop. Is there any outrage? Is anyone, anywhere in a bully pulpit saying enough is e-f*cking-nough? Because, "the families of the victims are in our thoughts and prayers" just isn't going to muster the testosterone necessary to put the enemy under our feet.

I'm in shock over this. My stomach is doing backflips. If I hear John Kerry try to drag this into a political speech I'm going to go ballistic...

Have not been able to bring myself to watch any of the beheading videos. Too afraid I'll never sleep again.
