But I had to know what the killer intensity of our enemies looks like because I think it is likely we will meet them here some day and I did not want to underestimate our opponents.

That is the only reason I can think of to watch the video.

I watch these pukes at Occupy Wall Street and their hollow threats. I say bring it on. They have the bluster, but we have the firepower. The Muslim threat is more serious but further out, IMO.

Gaddafi's death: Libya's new rulers 'stained' by manner of his death, says Philip Hammond

Britain denounced the apparent execution of Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi by rebel fighters yesterday as a "stain" on the reputation of the country's new rulers.

New footage emerged on the internet of fighters holding a silver revolver at the former Libyan leader's temple in a chaotic lynching as he was surrounded by members of the rebel militia.

Philip Hammond, the Defence Secretary, reflected widespread international concerns, including among nations backing the rebel National Transitional Council (NTC) that Col Gaddafi was subjected to summary justice.

"It's certainly not the way we do things, it's not the way we would have liked it to have happened," he said. "The fledgling Libyan government will understand that its reputation in the international community is a little bit stained by what happened."

I watched the Berg video. I felt that I had an obligation to. It was horrifying and I had replaying the images in my head. But it cemented my views about the threat from the muslim extremists. As painful as it was to watch the video, I believe it gives me a clarity and understanding that I would never have without viewing it.
