Video on Islamic militant Web site appears to show beheading of American

[Howlin]

Absolutely!!!!

[finnman69]

Jesus, I wish I did not watch that.

[MamaLucci]

Shep Smith just explained step by step what exactly took place on the beheading video.....it was in stark contrast to the reading of the "abuses" of the Iraqi prisoners read this morning by Senator Mark Dayton(D-AlQaeda). CBS and the rest of the democrat party have at least some of young Mr. Berg's blood on their hands.

Prayers for the soldier Maupin...No news.

[Mo1]

Don't be blaming CBS so fast. The real man we need to thank is another Vietnam Hero....

Hack shares the responsibility .. But CBS COULD have done the right thing and not aired them

There is a special place in hell for these people

[eyespysomething]

I can't look. I watched the Daniel Pearl video, and that was enough beheading for this mom.

[Mr.Atos]

As I said before... Rule 3-0-3!

2-2-3 would apply as well.

Whatever it takes.

[libbylu]

my thanks to them too, and my sorrow for his family. I am furious.

[prairiebreeze]

Fox News has announced they have decided to NOT show the pictures or video of Bergs execution.

"Did you know that 2000 years ago, a Roman Citizen could walk across the face of the known world free of the fear of molestation. He could walk across the earth unharmed, cloaked only in the protection of the words 'civus romanus': I am a Roman citizen. So great was the retribution of Rome universally understood as certain, should any harm befall even one of its citizens ... Let the word ring forth from this time and this place. You kill an American, any American, we don’t come back with a proportional response, we come back with total disaster!”
- President Jed Bartlett, THE WEST WING

Sounds like a good policy to me.

[Bommer]

Neither did CBS!

[Howlin]

I'm right with you. I had to go lie down for a few minutes.

But I tell you this: the FIRST person who blames this on the United States military or tries to link this to this to Bush's policy -- well, his opponent will be getting BIG BUCKS from me.

[StillProud2BeFree]

Zarqawi isn't a physician; you're thinking about Osama Bin Laden's second in command, Dr. Ayman al Zawahiri.

It wasn't done surgically. It wasn't guillotine like.

[Frank_Discussion]

Sons more often than not don't always agree with their fathers.

[kcat]

I know, I know. I'm telling myself let's just wait and see what happens this time. This time I'll probably be dissapointed too.

[highlandbreeze]

I'm with you, I can't get the Daniel Pearl video out of my head. Regret I ever looked.

[Bommer]

Hack doesn't share it, he's 100% responsible for it. no pictures, no story! This was reported back in March. It was no story. With pictures it suddenly became a story.

[pushforbush]

I can't watch it either.

Can someone post a capture of one frame of the video before the beheading occurs, just so we can see poor Mr. Berg. While I agree that the video should not be shown on television, seeing a still photograph of the scene should help Americans understand the reality of what has happened.

[who knows what evil?]

Although FOX News Channel won't show this video; Shepard Smith just gave a 'blow-by-blow' description of what occurs on this video. Berg was NOT cleanly beheaded...Smith states that the savage weilding the knife had to saw back and forth five times before the head came loose. Just Smith's description of this execution has me heading for the barf bucket. Worse than Danny Pearl...much worse...

I wonder if Shep will have the cajones to repeat his description of this gruesome wideo during the 'dinner edition' of the news this evening at 7 EST?
