Islamist Web Site Reports Beheading of Second American
Published: September 22, 2004
BAGHDAD, Iraq, Wednesday, Sept. 22 - A militant group posted an Internet message on Tuesday night saying it had beheaded the second American hostage in two days.
The group, One God and Jihad, led by the Jordanian militant Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, said in the message that it would release a video of the second killing soon. The group still had not posted the video on the Internet by early Wednesday.
The message did not give a name for the victim, but it would presumably be Jack Hensley, 48, an engineer who was kidnapped last Thursday along with Eugene Armstrong, a fellow American, and Kenneth Bigley, a Briton, from their home in an affluent neighborhood of Baghdad. All three men were colleagues working on construction projects in Iraq for a company based in the United Arab Emirates.
In Baghdad, the United States military confirmed that the Iraqi police had found the body of Mr. Armstrong, whose beheading was shown in a video posted by the group on the Internet on Monday. Maj. Philip J. Smith, a spokesman for the First Cavalry Division, said the police had found the body near Mr. Armstrong's home at 7:20 Monday night.
The discovery raised the possibility that the hostages were being held and killed somewhere in the capital rather than 35 miles west, in the insurgent controlled city of Falluja, which military intelligence officials say Mr. Zarqawi has used as a base.
A MILITANT?

The idiots at NYT do "get it". The only hope for their candidate is to separate Iraq from the war on terrorism. So thusly, anything happening in Iraq is from "Militants", not terrorists, as they cannot afford to have the two issues combined into one "terrorist" issue. The whores at the "Grey Whore" understand what they are doing.
So an American is beheaded, and you are indignant that a terrorist is called a "militant"? Are you serious? Or are you trying to spoof the Left and its obsession with politically correct language?
The war in Iraq isn't 'their' war. They didn't use militants when describing the world trade center. They are are doing a good job dividing the country.
No, I believe he is CITING AN EXAMPLE of leftist PC crap. Calling terrorists "militants" is a prime example of the political correctness you accuse this poster of.
Islamic POS. Wish I could strangle each one with my bare hands for their crimes against humanity.
Abu Musab al-Zarqawi is a TERRORIST and is not a MILITANT.
Are you suggesting that Bin Laden is a MILITANT?

You think about it!
I tell you right now, that if I am ever taken by these guys, I am going to ruin their video! I will not sit quietly there, bound while the cowards read their unholy propaganda and tribute to their demonic god before they sacrifice the Christian to the blood thirsty demon.
I would sing, "On Christ the solid rock I stand"..."Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus"..."Old rugged cross" ....while I got up and slammed my body into them the best I could! They would have to shoot me...and ruin their video tribute to their demonic pagan god, who seems to demand the live beheading of his foes.
My family has agreed to NEVER plead for my life. As my life is not in the hands of cowardly, ignorant, uncivilized, demon worshiping, terrorist swine; my life is in the hand of the Living God!
I tell you what, if I didn't believe in Jesus before, I would now, as the words of the Bible can be read in the newspapers!
"....Then I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their witness to Jesus and for the word of God who had not worshiped the beast...." Rev.20:4
Foxnews is calling a Terrorist "spiritual" leader who died today "part of a a militant group" Should he be called a terrorist? Yup. Sad to say, it just ain't the NY Times that is making this mistake.
Despite its liberal inclinations, NY Times remains one of our country's great newspapers. Sorry to run contrary to the party line here, but the Times is one of the remarkable achievements of Judaism in America. With the Jews having been in NYC for 350 years this October, it is worth noting their positive influences.
I wouldn't use it for toilet paper. I might use it for a paint drop if someone gave it to me, other then that I don't know what good its for?
Well, it has good sports, science, book reviews, occasionally a good op-ed piece. And it was just amazing in the two months after 9/11,
My dad refuses to read it, because of its liberal bias and pro-Israel bias. I understand where he is coming from, but I still think it is worthwhile.
The sooner old media dies the better.
How is it that these guys are getting away with bragging about this crap on the internet?
Trace the murderers IP - torture him till he says who told him, kill him, go to next - rinse and repeat.
