If they release the video . . . I don't think people appreciate the power and potential for danger these guys are wielding with their video taped atrocities. Also read today that some vendors are selling DVDs of the atrocities in Arab countries.

U.S. needs to adopt some policy - Sell Snuff, Get Snuffed - to deal harshly with this stuff. It's incredibly dangerous. It's basically like a form of porn to these deviant cultures.

I really don't understand why Bush isn't getting medieval on these savages. We need to provide a ruthless, merciless opposition to the Iranian groups and Baathists and what not until the Iraqi civilian government gets on its feet.

This stuff with the videos is going to get very bad before it's over. Very out of control.

yes.... declare that anyone caught with a snuff film will be face a month working in a pig farm.

"I really don't understand why Bush isn't getting medieval on these savages."

Right now, Bush has all he can handle with the savages in his own country. The last thing he can do at this moment if he wants to stay in office, (and I think we all know how crucial that is) is to rattle his sabres. If he wins with a sizeable margin, it will give him the mandate he needs to do what needs to be done.

You're exactly right and this issue is never talked about here in the way you described. Here's how I see it...

If you're trying to recruit Islamist fighters you want sociopaths. You want people without conscience who are willing to kill for the fun of it under the guise of serving Allah. Though these videos are abhorrent to normal people they are aphrodisiacs for psychotics. In their own twisted way they've developed the ultimate form of target marketing for their cause.

In light of this I like the "sell snuff get snuff idea." Those doing it, regardless of motive, are part of their recruiting team.
