Predators claim to behead US Marine
Al Qaeda terrorists claim to have beheaded Lebanese-born US Marine Cpl. Wassef Ali Hassoun.
The claim was made on a website in a statement attributed to the Ansar al-Sunna Army.
"We would like to inform you that the Marine of Lebanese descent has been killed, and you will soon see the movie with your own eyes," said the statement, signed in the name of the group's leader, Abu Abdullah al-Hassan bin Mahmoud.Hassoun was previously seen on a video released to Arabic television network Al Jazeera blindfolded, and kneeling in front of armed, masked captors. The kidnappers had threatened to decapitate Hassoun if the United States did not withdraw it's troops from Iraq.
US Intelligence sources are attempting to ascertain any truth to the claim.
Hopefully, the powers that be will take the chains off of the Marines. I know that they are chomping at the bit to go and wipe out every last one of these bastards.
