rintense,
Didn't they show the Pearl murder on television? I worked hard trying to not see it, but it was reported here on Free Republic that they showed the decapitated head.

I am an animal lover (have two smooth fox terriers), but because of a promise I made in church this morning not to cuss any more, I will refrain from saying else.

This is going to stir up more (that smelly stuff) than nearly anything that's happened yet.

Why show the video?

Because:

"The official said the video of the chemical tests on the dogs suggest a very strong desire to acquire the capability to use such weapons against humans. Until now, he said, he had seen nothing that indicated bin Laden or al Qaeda had the capability. "

"This tape is unquestionable documentation that he has some capability," he said. The tape, he said, shows "some level of sophistication, and indicates they were trying to get results."

It will be interesting to see just how upset people will get over this. Far worse is done to dogs and other animals every day by our drug companies and chemical researchers.

Yeah, I think the Pearl video was on the net. I chose not to watch it as well. FOX reported on these new videos this monring and did NOT show the footage of the puppies. They mentioned it, but did not show it. I can only suspect that CNN showed it for ratings.

I understand that we now have the liberal press in possession of materials that (gasp) verifies what the President has said all along.

They could just tell me though. It would not be necessary to show a dog struggling for life to make the point. I think they are showing the video for ratoings not substance.

you won't here anything from the PETA fascists 'coz protesting this type of animal abuse doesn't advance their anti-capitalist cause.

You're exactly right. Nor will you see any of the other major networks pick this up and run with it. It simply gives cause to Bush's plans - and heaven forbid they'd get on that bandwagon. For now, they're flying high with the likes of Admiral Scowcroft and Richard Lugar. Life can't get any better than that.

You can become a subscriber to the Al Quaeda Video Library. You will receive a new tape each month. Keep only those tapes you like and return the others without obligation. The ad says to send $19.95 (plus $6.00 S&H) to some address in Langley, Virginia.

Pretty soon some soldiers dressed in Iraqi uniforms will be shot attempting to invade Jordan.

What's the big surprise?

"Bin Laden's Afghan Germ Warfare Plants Bombed"

NewsMax.com

Thursday, Oct. 11, 2001

Osama bin Laden's secret laboratories in Afghanistan that were turning out deadly chemical and biological warfare agents have been heavily bombed in recent days, according to Ze'ev Schiff, defense commentator for Israel's Ha'aretz newspaper.

Despite Washington's reluctance to identify some of the targets of its daily bombing runs over Afghanistan - such information has even been withheld from members of the anti-terrorist coalition - the well-informed defense expert revealed that U.S. intelligence has "detailed information on the location of bin Laden's Al Qaida organization camps." Schiff also reported that U.S. and British air strikes hit instructional and training bases near the cities of Jalalabad and Khut, located close to the Afghanistan-Pakistan border.One of the bases reportedly attacked was a "small and secret" germ warfare plant that manufactured various poisons, including biological warfare agents. Another base attacked, Schiff reported, was a major manufacturer of explosive materials.

Wrote Schiff, "According to this information it seems that the American and other intelligence services knew about Al Qaida's involvement in the chemical and biological warfare realm prior to the strikes."

When Johnny Jihad was captured and interrogated, he already said that the "PHASE III" of the plan against the infidels (America) by the al-Qaeda would be the delivery of WMD chems and/or bios on soft targets within the United States. Some commentators at the time dismissed the rat boy, saying he could not have been that close to the inner sanctum or had knowledge of these productions and strategms. Hmmmmm.....

Sickening... they're almost as bad as the March of Dimes!

Just kidding.

However Rush just brought this up last hour, and just him reading the headlines, before he ever commented, I thought 'we couldn't get people upset enough and convinced enough of their evilness by the fact that they advocate suicide bombings and that they killed 3000 people at the WTC,... so we have to bring the people video of them gassing some dogs to get the point across?"

Of course, that was the very next thing Rush said after I yelled it at the radio.
