A message posted moments ago on the Ansar message board announced the murder of American hostage Jack Hensley. The posting was made by the same individual who posted yesterday's announcement of Armstrong's murder, and who has a history of posting announcements from Zarqawi's Tawhid wa Jihad group.
The announcement indicated that photos and a video would be forthcoming shortly.
I understand the frustration that comes from watching most of this from a far.
With that said, your comment is completely false! - We are not pussy-footing around in the least! -
Our shooters are conducting raids and killing terrorists daily and nightly - 7 days a week. In both Iraq and Afghanistan (and probably a few other unmentionable places) -
Our soldiers are bringing freedom and the value of self-worth to a region that has been denied both for far to long.
We are systematically, deliberately and unconventionally destroying Al Qeade and the terrorists within Iraq -
Pussy-footing around.....I think not....and neither do our brave soldiers who are putting their butts on the line every minute of every day.
My husband saw the Armstrong beheading yesterday. He thinks it should be broadcast on national news. He's sick of apologists.

I agree. Give them what they want! And a whole lot more...let's start giving gifts that will keep on giving to these Death Cultists. Watching the vids (I've seen enough now after Pearl, Johnson and now Armstrong) seals resolve and awakens the lethargic. Sickness in its purest form must be met in kind...and we must see it to understand it. I get it.
"Falluja delenda est."
How you doing Savage. LOL
It's time to kick a$$ and take names later. These satanic bastards are ripe for us to kill. We can no longer be nice guys and try to "get along." Wether this costs President Bush the election or not, we need to get these guys, string them up for the world to see and let these terrorists know that we will not tolerate this crap any longer.
Even though some people claim to watch them to become better informed, it worries me that the "daily beheading video" is becoming a form of entertainment for sickos.
I haven't seen any of them.
>>>
That explains your posting then...suck it up and see your enemy and his deep demoniac chants while your neighbor's head is being sawn off.
Or don't, life's full of choices. No one has to 'click' through.
If you think it's entertainment, watch one and come to me then.
I assure you I don't sit down to watch one without guarding my spirit, preparing myself and understanding that I will be sickened.
And it steels my personal resolve that should I ever have to defend myself, my family or my country, here or anywhere against these demoniacs, it won't take a split second to do what needs to be done.
I do agree that some people are not capable of watching, but that's not my call. I'm tired of this Holy War against my people being sanitized.
This is a war for our very survival, greatest of all in it's assymetrical fashion. We can't afford to be weak if we intend to be vigilant and prepared.
Evidently, they live in the upscale of Bahgdad. There are guards on the duty 24/7 to "protect" those who are from abroad helping to make it a better country.
They sold out, there were now guards around and they were taken. Me thinks they were paid off to look the other way.
It is difficult to know who to trust. The Iraqi's need to start stepping up and saying this was the behavior while
Saddam ruled and we will not tolerate this, I will not hold my breath for that day to come.
Prayers to the families and all those who defend our country selflessly.
Not quite; they've still got the Brit to kill.
There are two things that determine every decision we make -
The need to gain pleasure - and the need to avoid pain.
I'm afraid you're right that some may gain pleasure from viewing these videos (as sick as that may be) - however, on the other hand - we don't change or cause change unless and until the pain becomes too great.
The videos cause extreme pain and anguish, and will eventually inspire enough people to rid the pain through more drastic action.
Well stated - see my post 91.
DING! DING! DING! DING! DING! DING! DING!
I agree with the posters who say at a minimum these folks need to be armed. Why the heck are civilan contractors walking around in Iraq unarmed and apparently unprotected? If the military and police can't protect these folks, at least give them chance at protecting themselves. No way in heck I would accept a job over there and be told by our government I must go unarmed.
My personal rule #1.
NEVER depend on others for your security.
Someone should come up with a "pepper gas" belt. Maybe 4 cannisters of pepper gas, evenly distributed around your waist. Put the thing on in the AM. If 4-5 islamokazis dog-pile on you, pull a pin and everybody goes down puking. Granted, the intended victim gets dosed, but maybe while they're all laying on the ground writhing, some good guys can come to the rescue.
Beats the damned alternative...
BTTT
Damn them.
