Video Seems to Show Beheading of American

24 minutes ago Add Top Stories - AP to My Yahoo!


CAIRO, Egypt - A video posted Tuesday on an Islamic militant Web site appeared to show a group affiliated with al-Qaida beheading an American in Iraq (news - web sites), saying the death was revenge for the prisoner-abuse scandal.

The video showed five men wearing headscarves and black ski masks, standing over a bound man in an orange jumpsuit who identified himself as an American from Philadelphia.

After reading a statement, the men were seen pulling the man to his side and cutting off his head with a large knife. They then held the head out before the camera.

"there is little that is analogous between what AQ is doing and what Hamas is doing. OBL and AQ are religious fundamentalists"

I beg to differ. Here's a quote from Hamas's late leader. "Make no mistake, there will be no peace as long as there is a Zionist-Jewish state. Our holy goal is to liberate all of Palestine, and if the Jews do not go, they will die. All of Palestine is Islamic land -- every inch."

tejek says, "Hamas are freedom fighters..........they are Islamic but that's not their primary motivation."

Yassin said, "We are not fighting so that you will offer us something. We are fighting to eliminate you."

You say there is little analogous between AQ and Hamas, hmmmm I find that curious. Both enjoy mass murder, hmmm neither is interested in any sort of negotiations. Both enjoy very much to kill Jews... Of course, AQ had leg up with killing Americans, but who knows, there are jews in America and Hamas has hinted at chasing them down here.
