Could be mythology is what is needed to explain Islamic thinking.

Almost had it. I'll try to get Drudge up on my computer. I want to see what this is all about.

The murderer mirrors the statue's pose holding up the severed head. Maybe Drudge's point is that we are dealing with very a primitive 'culture.'

hope so, that makes sense. at first it seemed like a sick joke, he often has flashback links. thought it was just a play on it.

Or he doesn't want to show the graphic pictures.

But Medusa was the villian and Perseus the hero, the analogy is wrong.

But he does show the pictures.

The last pic, with the head held up maybe reminded him of the sculpture.

I'm glad Drudge has photo stills of the beheading posted on his website.
