CIA Agent supposedly beheaded on web video by AQ
A web site used by Al Qaeda-affiliated groups is now promoting a video of the decapitation of someone they claim is a CIA agent.
No orange jumpsuit, no advance demand of "get out or he dies" or anything else like that.
The four-minute long footage showed a Western-looking man sitting on a chair surrounded by armed masked men. One of the men struck the captive's neck repeatedly with a sword, severing his head amid shouts of "Allahu Akbar" (God is greatest).After last week's duping of the western media by San Francisco moonbat Ben Vanderford most news sources appear to be gun shy.A militant later held up the severed head for the camera.
An Arabic sign placed around the man's neck identified him as a "CIA agent." The video, which could not be immediately authenticated, showed what seemed to be the captive's picture identification card with the caption "visitor."
The Web site did not say which group issued the video, nor did the masked men identify themselves or make any political statements as previous kidnappers in Iraq had.
The men could be heard speaking in the background but the audio quality was too poor to understand.
The tired-looking captive was wearing a plain shirt and trousers.
In any event, the gruesome beheading murder of the as yet unidentified man is available on the web, with still photos at My Pet Jawa and the video available from Northeast Intelligence Network (WMP), and Slant Point. (warning, both links are extremely graphic)
I hope these monsters die horribly.
Amen.

Posted by: Rusty Shackleford at August 13, 2004 01:21 PMI think this person (supposedly CIA agent) was still alive.
I think they saw that he was an American CIA agent (from ID papers) and beat him up really badly. Must have had a severe beating.
These people are not Iraqis. They are foreign islamic Al Qaeda groups (mostly recruited from Saudi ARabia, Egypt, Jordan, Libya, Persian Gulf countries etc) flocking to Iraq to cause trouble.
They even shoot Iraqis (their own kind ie. muslims/arabs) that work for the US army like Iraqi women who do the laundry for US military and Iraqi translaters.
Iraqis would never bomb their own with car bombings. It never happened when Saddam Hussein was in power.
Car bombings & beheadings are an Al Qaeda hallmark.
I mean look at that American contractor (Mr Hamil) that was kidnapped in Iraq by Iraqi militants. They treated him humanely and well for a month before he escaped. If the Zarqawi group had captured him I think he would have been beheaded.
I noticed almost all of these beheadings are done by the Jordanian Al Qaeda linked Zarqawi group. Because if you look at their flag in the background it's a black flag with yellow sun in the middle. This is their group.
I mean look at Jessica Lynch, she was injured combatant, the Iraqis took her to a hospital and even put her in an Iraqi ambulance and drove her to an American checkpoint to return her but they were fired upon by trigger happy US soldiers.
I think the CIA agent was so demoralized and was already prepared for death that he didn't want to put up any physical resistance. He knew it was hopeless and they were going to kill him anyway.
He's obviously alive because one of the terrorists told him to open his eyes and he did so weakly and also he lifted his hands up and down a few times.
I don't think he was dead when they beheaded him. I think he gave up all hope and said let them get it over with.
His jaw looks broken and his eyes is all bruised. He must have gotten a severe beating.
Remember there are many different groups operating in Iraq.
There are even news reports of some Iraqi groups that have threatened to kill Zarqawi and his terrorist group because they claim Zarqawi has killed scores of innocent Iraqis and have beheaded foreingers. They don't all work hand in hand.
