THE Iraqi branch of al-Qaeda has put on the internet a video showing the mutilated bodies of two US soldiers kidnapped in June and executed to "avenge" an Iraqi woman raped near Mahmudiyah south of Baghdad.
"Here is a film on the remains of the bodies of the two American soldiers kidnapped near Yussufiyah (south of Baghdad). We are showing it to avenge our sister who was raped by a soldier belonging to the same division as these two soldiers," said a preamble by the Mujahedeen Al-Shura Council, an al-Qaeda dominated alliance of armed Sunni groups in Iraq.
When guerillas learned of the rape, "they repressed their sighs to avoid news of the affair spreading but they swore to avenge their sister", the council said on its usual website.
"Praise God, they captured two soldiers from the same division as this vile crusader. Here are the remains ... to rejoice the hearts of the faithful," the statement said.
The nearly five-minute film shows the horribly mutilated bodies of the two soldiers, who had had their throats cut.

It causes physical pain in the review. It is difficult. That is why the Left will never review these pictures.
wtc: I am pinging you to this because it explains my viewpoint better (thanks angel).
I agree! I think AQ is leaning on this 'reason' because somewhere....somehow....they know they are all in deeper chit now since the soldiers have been killed. It is a convenient way to garner sympathy from the international community for their actions. Sounds pretty cowardly to me. To this end...since when did women become 'worth' killing others over to AQ or any other Muzzie?? Typical Modus Operandi for these lowlifes.....
Any excuse for a jihad......
Just heard the msm first strike on the radio. Fox news no less. What happened to Fox?
I won't go to the site. NSA has enough to do checking out each person who goes to that site.
Where is the ACLU, the UN, the Red Cross, Amnesty International, the New York Times?
Is this not an invasion of "Civil Liberties", what about "Due Process", could this be a "War Crime"?
/double sarcasm off
It's a FReeper's site.
It is lunacy. Remember the origin of the word... lunacy.
That's how the Islamic Nazis work.
Doesn't look too good for Mr. Green. Iraqis knew of the alleged rape/murder long before it was in the news here.
[But the average American seems to not understand just how evil the enemy is. THEY are the ones that need to see this.]
I understand how horrible this would be for the families of the two brave American soldiers. Still, I think this video should be played on every single television network, every half hour, until our poorly educated and irrational American populace wakes up to the true nature of our enemies.
Torturing, mutilating, beheading, castrating, and murdering non-koranimals is what our enemy does. Our enemies will exterminate us when they are capable. It is their religious duty, after all. It's what their pedophile prophet told his followers to do.
We have used too many carrots in Iraq and not enough sticks. It's time to start playing cowboys and ragheads, the way that game is meant to be played.
I understand that we also recovered DNA evidence and bloody fingerprints from the recovered remains...allowing us to test recent captures for complicity in these war crimes.
Payback will be a b!tc#. Location. DNA. Fingerprints.

I agree.
Exactly right. This needs to be said over and over.
I believe the soldiers were mortally wounded rather than "overpowered". One of the three who were left there was already dead.
"Iraqis knew of the alleged rape/murder long before it was in the news here"
I don't think so.
There have been various reports that the Mother did not complain about Americans for three months after the event, and in fact the villagers thought it was Iraqis that did this.
I believe the soldiers were mortally wounded rather than "overpowered". One of the three who were left there was already dead.
I believe that too or should I say I pray that it is true, but I wonder why they left the third soldier there......
I thought the way these muslime savages avenged a rape was to kill the victim.
It could be a simple reason such as not enough room in their getaway car - pressed for time. The one witness said the two were dragged to the car. No way were these men fully alive - perhaps dying as they were taken away. You just know there would have been film with ridiculous demands if they had been alive.
May God ease your mother's heart.
Did you read the affidavit? The rape murder occured around 3-12-06 was reported to the Coalition by Iraqis close to or on the same day. The coalition thought it was the work of anti Iraqi forces, there is nothing said about what the Iraqis thought - it is reasonable to belive they might have known otherwise especially since Green had apparently been watching that girl for a while. That's reasonable as that type of act is often not spur of the moment.
