Thanks. I've now seen the story posted from Reuters.

Something this distressing needed a link confirming it.

Is that George Bush's fault too? I'm sure Chris Matthews and company think so.

Will NBC show this video ? Bets, anyone ?
Nah- unless the video can be used to trash the US military, it won't see the light of day.
NBC won't even describe the barbarity of the enemy- too graphic.
But, when it comes to some of their programming during the family hours-nothing can be too graphic for NBC.
NBC will allow balls and nuts to be used to describe testicles on Will and Grace, but, won't say that this woman had her limbs torn off, one by one, probably while she was still alive.
That would be too graphic.

This does not make much sense. She was not being held by Zarqawi's bunch directly, and there is no body yet.

They did threaten to turn her over to them however.

I remain hopeful that she is still alive until a body shows up or a better source of info comes to light.

Read this, from OBL's "spiritual mentor" (source below):

As a cultural struggle, the world-wide Jihad is waged on three fronts. The most immediate front is within Muslim countries, where the goals is to reinstate the rule of Shari’a law.

The second front is in countries with Muslim minorities, situated on “fault lines” with other cultures, such as the Balkans, the Caucasus, Kashmir, etc.

And the last front is the international cultural struggle, in which Islam takes on Western— particularly American—civilization, perceived by the fundamentalists as the source of all evil, and the primary threat to Islam.

Did the terrorists obey the Geneva Convention?

I doubt you even know what a communist is, you cold, foolish man. A good woman just got slaughtered like an animal and you make it sound like it was her fault.

No, I think he was just saying that the Islamists don't differentiate between those hostile to their cause and those sympathetic. They just kill anyone if they think it will demoralize their enemy, like a parent who'll hurt their own child to get at their ex-spouse. Sociopaths.

They're holding it back so they can decide what anti-Bush/anti-military spin they'll put on it.

The first reply to the Hassan story on DU was "More blood on Bush's hands..."

The Islamists murder female aid workers and the MSM wants to pick on a battle weary wounded Marine for killing a terrorist.

Sickening.

I got it right away. I think emotions are just running high so people aren't reading as carefully as they would normally. :-)

And a damn lot of good that did her, eh? Rather a far cry from "I will show you how an Italian dies!"

Imo, that's unfair. I don't think she realized that she was dead, no matter how hard she tried to cooperate with that scum. The Italian man, otoh, knew he was dead.

Being 100 percent Irish, I know about wishing things away, and praying for intervention from God.

I didn't get that at all from what he wrote.
