I put up a link to the Berg video from LGF. You can't get through. Here's why.

Searching for Snuff - LGF

I’ve never seen anything like the storm of search requests for the video of poor Nicholas Berg being slaughtered by Islamic holy warriors.

If LGF seems slow today, this is why.

We’ve already had over 50,000 unique visitors, and a little less than half of them are from Google, Yahoo, or another search engine. Check the LGF Search Requests page to see the amazing panoply of search terms people are using to find this ugly video.

There was such a deluge that I got curious and started tracking the IP addresses; at least half of them are from Persian Gulf countries.

I still haven't actually seen the moment. But the very thought, after seeing the still shots, had the very same reaction with me as it did you.

I can not imagine what sort of demented souls would believe that God, whatever His/Her name, would condone this.
