An analysis of veins corroborates a confession by a senior al Qaeda leader that he personally beheaded Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl, according to a new report released Thursday.
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed is suspected of planning the September 11, 2001, terror attacks on the United States.
Mohammed has not denied his role in the killing of Pearl, who was abducted in January 2002.

wouldn’t be wasted on some minion.
Yeah, I know this beheading stuff is bad...BUT did you realize we put panties on a guy’s head at Abu Ghraib?!? Now THAT is a war crime—something the NY Times and the Drive By Media would NOT shut up about for months and months.

I didn’t see the video, so I’m confused. In 2002 we heard that the terrorists cut Daniel Pearl’s throat; now we’re hearing they cut his head off. Which is right?
