Taliban release tape of Polish engineer’s death
Created: 08.02.2009 19:39
A video tape showing the last moments of the Polish captive in Pakistan, killed on Saturday by the Taliban, has been handed into the Reuters office in the north western town of Dera Ismail Khan.
The tape shows two men cutting off the head of Piotr Stanczak, a Polish engineer who was kidnapped by the Taliban last September in the Attock region, near the border with Afghanistan.
A statement by the Taliban in Pakistan on Saturday said that they would not be delivering the body of the engineer unless certain conditions were met, including the release of prisoners. But they would deliver the video of his death, said the spokesman known as ‘Mohamed”.
Stanczak becomes only the second foreign kidnap victim to be killed in Pakistan since American journalist Daniel Pearl was beheaded in 2002.

My big concern is not waterboarding ~ it’s Islamofascism, its acolytes and their running dog lackeys.

The Taliban won’t be happy until all light-skinned people are dead.
My prayers are with his family.

Such symbolism exhibited by these backward animals in the beheading of an engineer. The same engineer no doubt working to move that country, in some small way, into the 21st century.
These animal bastards don’t deserve to live among civil human beings.

Obama voters did this and they like that they did it. So did those on the right by providing social and familial support for Leftists.

“A statement by the Taliban in Pakistan on Saturday said that they would not be delivering the body of the engineer unless certain conditions were met, including the release of prisoners.” So why doesn't Pakistan behead the prisoners they wanted released and send a video of the executions to the Taliban. It would end all kidnappings of this sort in the future. I guess that makes too much sense.

I think zero really does believe he can win over our enemy by using his Hope and Change and ACORN crap that got him elected. I suppose the enemy won’t be as gullible as the Americans who voted for him.

Aa far as I’ve read - just before they killed him, they gave him back his own clothes, and he probably hoped they’d let him go.
As reported by some Pakistani journalist.

Before he was killed, Stanczak was seen on the tape appealing to the Polish government not to send troops to Afghanistan.
He also urged Poland to severe ties with Pakistan, which he said had made no effort to secure his release, said a Reuters reporter who saw the tape.
