Beat, cut, and shot in the head VERSUS naked on a leash.

Only one of the above sounds like real torture to me.

[JennysCool]

These are the folks who hate the President for the war on terror.

I would like to think they have learned a lesson, but I'm certain by now there's no teaching them.

[Radix]

"Apparently tortured!

I'm sorry that this fellow went and got himself murdered, but I'm glad that those of his ilk are not in the position to make real decisions.

They'd get us all murdered with their mindlessness and refusal to recognize and deal with the obvious.

Islam is a religion of peace, frequent Bush quote

[SIDENET]

An American aid worker taken hostage with three other peace activists was apparently tortured before he was shot in the head and chest

Unfortunately, the price of stupidity can be very high.

[sergeantdave]

It's my understanding from reading other reports that this fellow was a 20 year Marine.

I mean...what the hell. If you got 20 years in the Corps and decide to be a peacenik, I'd at least stuff a .45 in my sock just in case.

I just don't get this guy. He's dead now and probably left family and friends who depended on him. What about these people you left behind, leaving them drifting without you...

Holy moly, man. Use your brain. As a Marine, lock and load should've been tatooed on your brain. Geez!

I hate it when the people who working to establish peace...the soldiers & law enforcement...have to clean up the messes left by 'peace activists.' So far as I'm concerned, Tom Fox & co. are just more 'insurgents'.

[AmericanMade1776]

All of Tom Fox's Quaker friends..prayed for Tom and those who killed him. I prayed too...and I prayed that those who killed Tom Fox meet their maker in hell soon.

[Mike Darancette]

An American aid worker taken hostage with three other peace activists was apparently tortured before he was shot in the head and chest and his body dumped near a railroad line in Baghdad, Iraqi police said Saturday.

What type of people spout what type of religion would commit such a useless wanton act?

These are rabid pigs unfit to named among men.

[NonValueAdded]

And after all the water he and his friends carried for his ultimate torturers and murderers ... ain't that a shot in the head!

[PzLdr]

Going by just the headline, I thought they made him listen to Cindy Sheehan speeches. But then, if they had, he'd have shot himself.

American Apparently Tortured Before Death

---

Just some more proof of that "religion of peace" right Mr. President?

[DejaJude]

"We mourn the loss of Tom Fox, who combined a lightness of spirit, a firm opposition to all oppression, and the recognition of God in everyone," Doug Pritchard and Carol Rose, co-directors of Chicago-based Christian Peacemaker Teams, said in a statement.

Tom Fox reminds me of the guy that cared about grizzlys so much that he was making a documentary about them. The bears killed and ate him.

[Dallas59]

Confessing to loving everything, playing flutes, banging drums at sunrise, sniffing flowers, feeling sorry for "people" who aren't as full of love as you, hating Jews, painting colorful pictures of joy, writing poems of paradise under the UN and wanting to bring liberal enlightenment to Muslims, apparently didn't convince the oppressed Iraqi "freedom fighters" that killed Mr. Fox that he was on their side.

[blam]

Why torture? Do they maim little puppies too just for fun?
Why did they torture him?

[thoughtomator]

Looks like he got the peace he was looking for.

[MilspecRob]

[Washi]

Let's hope he didn't have to endure the dreaded "panties on the head" treatment.

[JimRed]

In the West Bank, many Palestinians expressed sorrow over the killing of Fox, who had traveled there to protest for their cause before he was taken hostage in Iraq.

Any regret I might have felt for his demise was removed by that fact.

[garylmoore]

These people are doomed to hell and there is no saving them. Their hearts are hard.
