Pearl, a reporter for the Wall Street Journal, was abducted and beheaded in Karachi. A video of Pearl’s decapitation was delivered to the US consulate there.

Sheikh was sentenced to death in 2002.

A report released by the Pearl Project at Georgetown University has claimed that the wrong men were convicted for Pearl’s murder.

Instead, the investigation says Pearl was murdered by Khalid Sheikh Mohammad, the alleged mastermind of the 9/11 attacks.

IOW, the judges needed a pretext to set aside the convictions to save their own skins. Thanks BenLurkin.

KSM is not the “ allleged mastermind” of 911
He is the admitted mastermind of 911

We should not be giving a darn PENNY to these muzzie murderers who harbor the minions of Satan in their midst and give them succor. Rather they should be reduced to glass.

Did you highlight the area under my last post?

Our nuclear missiles were removed in 1963, as part of the deal to get the Soviet Union to remove theirs from Cuber.

As to the ones more or less currently stationed there? I don’t know if they are still there.

For some reason they don’t tell me anything about current nuclear weapons locations...

the investigation says Pearl was murdered by Khalid Sheikh Mohammad

Did he single-handedly kidnap and kill Pearl, without any aid or assistance? If not then all involved are still guilty.
