I wish I hadn't. I've seen the others and found them disturbing. This one made me sick.
Sawing the head off an infidel, especially when it's done in the ritualistic manner the Koran describes, is one of the most holy rites of Islam. Watching it fills even moderate Muslims with great happiness. It's just not seen as a bad thing to do over there.
In Islam, they have little boys saw the heads off goats and sheep on their religious holidays. Why? To desensitize them to gore. Those killings are done in the same way as this, with the knife cutting across from front to back, and then the head being held up for everyone to view, and finally placed on the back. And everyone else stands around chanting "Allahu Akbar." It's *exactly* like the videos, except it's done with an animal. If a little boy can saw the head off a goat today, maybe he can do it to an infidel tomorrow...
The administration thinks these videos are brutal and scare people off the terrorist cause. Nothing could be further from the truth. Each video like this creates 10,000 new Jihadis. They see it as visual proof of a triumph of Allah over infidels.

Unfortunately, things in Iraq will get much worse before they get better.
We've really made a hash of things there. 🙁

It's much worse than the Nick Burg video but not as bad as Justin Timberlake's.
🙂
Seriously, don't do it. It's really bad.

Hydrogen is a helluva bomb.
I don't feel sorry at all about Abu Ghraib.
The Nepali execution video was even worse. They zoomed in on one guy's trachea as he gasping for his last breaths, with his head half detached. 🙁
You may wonder why the U.S. millitary does nothing to stop these executions. This is because there are huge parts of Iraq where the U.S. millitary is scared shiiteless of going into, after the Faluja incident last year in which a couple of boys were barbequed and put on display around town by the Iraqis. GWB doesn't want to risk any more bad press, so he lets the Iraqis have a free reign in various trouble spots, while occasionally bombing them in hopes that it keeps them in check.
