CNN should show all of these videos. Maybe then the hand-wringers will realize the kind of people we are up against.

Robertson said he doubts CNN will show what appears to be a promotional video out of Bosnia showing a severed human head rolling through grass.

I have mixed feelings about this. Anything that convinces people of the inhuman brutality of terrorists is a good thing. On the other hand, respect for the innate dignity of human beings, including the man whose head this was, argues against it.

It's like Holocaust photos. I can't stomach looking at them. I feel that in some ways they exploit the victims, and I don't feel the need to see them. I saw some of them once, many years ago as a child, and that was enough. But if they have converted some people from knee-jerk anti-semitism, maybe it's justified.

You have to wonder about CNN's motives in not showing this particular picture. Concern for human dignity? Concern not to damage the reputation of their Arab friends? Who knows?

These tapes should be used as evidence against the traitors from Buffalo.

Thinks CNN is wrong.They should not only show the head rolling across the grass.They should show the video of the jumpers at the WTC so we never forget the horror they inflicted upon us.I cannot fathom how you decide to jump over a 1,000 feet to your death to avoid being burned alive.That horror needs to remain fresh so that we remember what we are fighting for.

Well, no of course not.

We might upset the kiddies.

And Americans should be kept in the dark about the true nature of the threat to us and the rest of the world.

Otherwise, we might get upset and skip Christmas shopping.

Each and every American man, woman, and child should see this video to get the full idea of what evil we are up against. Sleeper cells are alive and well in the USA. The danger is not across the ocean.

Robertson said the most personally "shocking" of the 64 tapes he brought out of Afghanistan was a segment CNN began airing Monday of what appears to be a test of a chemical agent. It showed a cloudy liquid seeping across a floor toward a dog that whimpers, struggles and collapses.

To put this into perspective, Robertson was more shocked by the dog dying than by a person's decapitated head rolling on the ground.

Dogs are more important to Robertson than people, I suppose.

"I've never seen a dog die before," Robertson noted. "When you see an animal suffer, you can't help but be affected."

And the pacifists can't seem to imagine why we all want to go to war. I'm not willing to sit back and wait for this picture to be changed into a bunch of "Americans" dieing before us. All the peace-loving hippies should be forced to move to Canada or Cuba...take their socialist pick.
