"What was his crime? That he fought against the Christians," the speaker says.

VERY interesting.

It wouldn't surprise me to find out that these Islamic terrorists had set up to film from several angles that day ...

Root up these vicious freaks. And salt the ground in whatever ountry they squatted. We are merciful, and we have suffered long. Time to get serious. Diligentia, Viz, Celeritas.

It seems to have gone under the radar, because the title just mentioned an AQ tape, yawn...

Then you see what's on part of the tape!

A potentially related article (if these have gotten into the hands of terrorists):

Radioactive, "dirty bomb" missiles have vanished in Moldova.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1035470/posts

"Military records show that at least 38 Alazan warheads were modified to carry radioactive material, effectively creating the world's first surface-to-surface dirty bomb. "

I notice one of the online korans has replaced "jidad" with "battle" in 47:4 ... here's another little "gem" from it ... but it's a "religion of peace" ...

[61.4] Surely Allah loves those who fight in His way in ranks as if they were a firm and compact wall.

Killing Christians - the Islamist's peaceful pastime.

OK. I get it now. We are supposed to be (oh so) tolerant of them, while they plan how they are going to kill us. Makes sense.

We've been discussing this for a day or two already somewhere on FR - I think on the giant never-ending 2000+ post terror threat thread . . .

So there were other AQ here, taping the attack.

Forensic examiners should be able to determine fairly accurately, if not precisely, the vantage point from which this video was shot.

Even if it was shot from the street, surveillance cameras, tourist footage, etc., might have captured something. Better possibilities for investigation if it was shot from an apartment building, business or hotel room--someplace where they keep records of tenants, visitors, guests.

That this is just surfacing now suggests that the film was stashed by the cameraman, who was unable to retrieve it--imprisoned, dead, or deported. Other AQ just now recovered it or, maybe the cameraman himself was recently released?

Maybe CIA should "lose" some training videos on interrogation techniques, using lard for shaving "gel" and straight razors. A nick here, one over there...... ooops, sorry about the ear!

Hmm, but we've been told over and over by the press that the Anthrax attacks couldn't have been perpetrated by AQ, because all the AQ agents in American died on 9/11. How could the press be proven wrong, yet again? [/sarcasm]

Yet another bit of evidence the press will ignore.

NO NO NO!!! They couldn't have, as 9/11 was perpetrated by Jews, the CIA, the Illuminati, George Bush and Halliburton!

[/sarcasm] (<--- as if I needed to make it clear!)

Hey, I thought this wasn't a religious war. Didn't they get the message?

The al Qaeda creeps made threats for early November as well. And now they make them for December.

Doesn't matter. The reply remains the same.

I think it was in the same memo that said Islam was a "religion of peace"...
