'Religious' Islamists Once Again Violate their Own Scriptures

Our enemies follow up the murder of Nick Berg with this demonstration of their cold-blooded brutality and another beheading:

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia - An al-Qaida group said Friday it killed American hostage Paul M. Johnson Jr, posting three photos on the Internet showing his body and severed head.

The message, in the name of Al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula, appeared as a 72-hour deadline set by the group ended.

Saudi security officials later said Johnson's body was found in al-Munisiyah district just outside the capital.

Secretary of State Colin Powell (news - web sites) said U.S. officials were awaiting confirmation of Johnson's death from Saudi officials. But he condemned the reported killing as "an action of barbarism ... that shows, once again, what the world is dealing with."

"If anything, it will cause us — I'm quite confident it will cause our Saudi colleagues — to redouble our efforts to go after terrorists wherever they are, wherever they try to hide," Powell said.

"The inhumanity of the crime exceeds all boundaries of civilized people," U.S. Ambassador to Saudi Arabia James Oberwetter said in a statement. "There is a tremendous sadness on the part of the family, the U.S. Embassy, and the American community at Paul's death."

The Saudi ambassador to Britain called the slaying "an evil act by evil people."

"We will continue to use every effort to fight this murderous cult in Saudi Arabia," Prince Turki al-Faisal said in London.

Let's also not forget poor Mr. Berg:



While these images may be seen as disrespectful of the dead that is not the intention.
If Americans and the world fail to see and completely understand the nature of the enemy we all face there will be many more deaths such as this. Naturally, the enemy intends to shock us with these barbaric acts. In order to ensure that their goal is not reached we should instead vow to defeat the animals who do these vile things. Otherwise, they will hold us all hostage one day.
