The video bore the title "Abu Musab al-Zarqawi shown slaughtering an American." It was unclear whether al-Zarqawi a lieutenant of Usama bin Laden was shown in the video, or was claiming responsibility for ordering the execution.
The Web site on which the video was posted is known as a clearing house for Al Qaeda and Islamic extremist groups' statements and tapes. An audiotape purportedly from bin Laden which the CIA said was probably authentic appeared on the same Web site last week.
Western officials say al-Zarqawi, whose real name is Ahmad Fadhil al-Khalayleh, is a lieutenant of bin Laden. The United States has offered $10 million for information leading to the capture or killing of al-Zarqawi, saying he is trying to build a network of foreign militants in Iraq to work for Al Qaeda.
In the video, the speaker threatened both President Bush and Pakistani President Gen. Pervez Musharraf (search).
"As for you Bush ... expect severe days. You and your soldiers will regret the day you stepped into the land of Iraq," he said. He described Musharraf as "a traitor agent."

This poor man. As horrifying as this video is, if this doesn't wake up our stupid media and the rats, nothing will.
Islamonazis want to do this to all of us, our children, our friends, all of us.
I'll be checking to see if the rest of the media, besides Fox, talk about this or show any scenes of it.
