Video Of Ansar Al Sunnah Army Executes 11 Iraqi Troops (Legion Security Force Guardsmen) Download Video Here The Ansar al-Sunnah Army said it had beheaded one and shot the 10 others. The group had announced on Tuesday that it captured the 11 Iraqi National Guardsmen on the highway between Baghdad and Hillah. "After investigating with them and (hearing) their confessions, it turned out this group was responsible for guarding the Crusader American troops in Radwaniya area and what's around it in southern Baghdad," a statement posted on the web site said. The claim's authenticity could not be independently confirmed. Insurgents have regularly targeted Iraqi security forces, blaming them for working with Americans. The video came five days after insurgents ambushed and killed 50 unarmed Iraqi soldiers as they headed home from a U.S. training camp northeast of Baghdad. The Web site on Thursday had a video link showing the 11 National Guardsmen reading out their names and the name of their unit. It then showed the graphic execution of the men — some of whom were squatting, their hands tied behind their backs, before they were shot or beheaded. A voiceover — identified by a subtitle as that of the head of the group or "Emir al-Jamaa" — addressed all Iraqi security forces. "A call to the army and police: Repent to God ... abandon your weapons and go home and beware of supporting the apostate Crusaders or their followers, the Iraqi government, or else you will only find death." A written statement warned that "we will not forget about the blood of our elderly, women and children that are shed daily in Fallujah, Samarra, Ramadi and elsewhere on your hands and the hands of those you work with." "We have repeatedly warned you and you refused but to support the Crusaders. Your weakness and love for the dollar drove you to this fate, which is incomparable to the torture God has for you," the statement added. The movement has claimed responsibility for a number of attacks and hostage takings, including the kidnap and murder of 12 Nepalese who were seized in August. Insurgents have repeatedly targeted Iraqi security forces in an effort to destabilize the country and hamper reconstruction efforts. Hundreds of Iraqi police, soldiers and National Guard have been killed since the ouster of Saddam Hussein in 2003.
