BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Gunmen stormed the house of a Sunni cleric Thursday and cut his head off before setting him alight in an attack that bore the hallmark of insurgents, a police spokesman said.
In a separate attack Thursday, four men wearing women's clothes entered the house of a policeman in a village northwest of Baquba, the Diyala capital, and beheaded his wife when they failed to find the officer, an interior ministry source said.
Jabbar Saleh al-Jibouri was killed shortly before dawn at his house in a village near Muqdadiya town, 80 km (50 miles) northeast of the capital in Diyala province, Major Ghalib al-Jubouri, a police spokesman in Diyala, said.
The attack came a day before the start of the Islamic holiday of Eid.
"The gunmen entered the house, stabbed him, cut his head off and set him alight," Jubouri told Reuters.
---------- Jibouri, who was also a medic, used to treat members of the government-backed "Sahwa" militia.
Insurgents have frequently targeted the Sahwa, Sunni ex-militants who turned against al Qaeda. The U.S. military credits the Sahwa group with helping turn the tide of sectarian violence unleashed by the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq.

And if those media flotation devices fail, Obozo STILL has these idiots as back-up:
This is the same phenomenon that gave America Oprah Winfrey. But this is A LOT scarier. All it gave Oprah was tons of money and influence. Obamalamadingdong will have REAL POWER to damage the country in ways about which Winfrey could only dream!

Got to be a group of radical Methodists. The ROP adherents would NEVER do anything like that.

What did he do?
Burn a Koran or something?
If they cut off a Muzlum’s head for apparently no reason, then their threats about heads being cut off for burning Korans has no merit.
