What could be the first public appearance of the new leader of al-Qaida in Iraq has been posted on the Internet, showing him executing a Turkish hostage.

Abu Ayyoub al-Masri succeeded Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, who was slain in a US airstrike June Seventh. The new leader is also known as Abu Hamza al-Muhajer.

The video shows three men in masks standing behind a blindfolded hostage. The militant in the middle, identified as al-Masri, reads a statement criticizing companies and people that cooperate with the US military. Then he shoots the hostage three times in the head.

Doesn't the Geneva Convention state that you are only allowed to shoot a hostage ONCE in the head ?

The way these guys shoot it probably took three shots.

They arent used to doing their own killing they like to put idiots up to blowing themselves up and taking others with them.

Calling these people human beings is an insult to the rest of us.

Good point. Maybe Al "No Controlling Legal Authority" Gore can explain it to us.

The true face of Islam is revealed in the murder of blind-folded hostages and the circulating of snuff films on the Internet. Islam is an evil and inhuman cult.

I'd like to ask John McCain, Lindsey Graham, John Warner and Olympia Snowe if they still want to extend to murderers the protections of the Geneva Convention.

But isn't that a violation of the Geneva Convention?

The masks are there to show their conviction for the cause. /s

Only Lindsay Graham is qualified to answer this question.

Should we kill Musharraf, Karzai, Malaki, Talibani (the Kurd) who praised President Bush in a non-covered speech at the UN)? All of our Iraqi allies who fight and die along side our military in Iraq?

This is a bizarro world now on FRee REpublic where it has become easy, fun and fashionable to beg for war with all who profess Islam and to put every one of them in the same basket.

al Masri is a murdering thug and some say he is even more evil than Zarqawi.

But if you just focus on the Islamic part, you would line up every Muslim in the world along side al Masri and blow them away by the millions and billions.

Beam me up. Where's the intelligent life here?

"Let me explain to you how this works.. You see, the corporations finance Team America. And then Team America goes out, and the corporations sit their in their corporation buildings and see.. they're all corporationy.. and they make money."

Cheers!
