Khalid Sheik Mohammed killed U.S. journalist Daniel Pearl, report finds
Washington Post ^ | January 20, 2011

A recently completed investigation of the killing of Daniel Pearl in Pakistan nine years ago makes public new evidence that a senior al-Qaeda operative executed the Wall Street Journal reporter.

Khalid Sheik Mohammed - the self-described mastermind of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, who is being held at the U.S. detention center at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba - said at a military hearing in 2007 that he killed Pearl. But there have been lingering doubts about his involvement, and the United States has not charged him with the crime.

According to the new report, which was prepared by faculty members and students at Georgetown University, U.S. officials have concluded that vascular technology, or vein matching, shows that the hand of the unseen man who killed Pearl on video is that of Mohammed. The report also says Mohammed told the FBI that a senior al-Qaeda operative advised him to take control of Pearl from his original kidnappers.

If you use Hemp rope, the hanging will be Environmentally Responsible as well and you will end up with Soylent Jihadi.

NO!!!! Muslims welcome a quick departure from this world. They need to be shown how slowly and painfully they will die when we capture them. Suicide is their cowardly way OUT! KSM should be trotted out twice a year to show he’s alive AND suffering the humiliations of captivity. As should ALL of the captured. THEN maybe those considering a terrorist attack will see the futility in their effort.

Do you really believe this? I seriously doubt that other Muslim cowards are contemplating the evils of their ways because KSM is in captivity. If you really want to see an end to their cowardly Islamo-facism, then, IMHO we need to completely destroy their seats of power, and go on destroying their cities until they sue for mercy.

I was kind of thinking an old piece of sun weathered nylon rope, it'll cut/burn your hands really bad and leave little shards of nylon embedded if you're not wearing leather gloves........just saying.

In that case, let’s use the Hitler method, Piano Wire.

Better yet, use Recycled Piano Wire, Greenpeace approved.

Piano wire might be too quick. This should be drawn out for awhile. Burning at the stake comes to mind.

Seats of power? They can barely recruit/trick morons into blowing themselves up! If they had “seats of power” they’d be a lot easier to defeat.

Don’t kid yourself - the foot soldiers are not the one’s in charge. Those who send out marching orders are all nice and warm in their cozy little havens around the world.

In the Novel Shogun, one of the Samurais betrays his master.

They buried him up to his neck, with a serrated bamboo saw attached to his neck. The Village Women would come by and pull the saw one direction and then the other in a slow and deliberate way. Eventually, the man died, but it took a very long time.

I think it was the definition of the term, “death by a thousand cuts”. Of course, the part of the Novel where they boiled the English Sailor alive wasn't too pretty.
