For the past 2 days. it was disturbing to see stat referrers at BLOGGED, searching for “beheading video” ( It was from a very old post of some other beheading video done in the Philippines) My curiosity got the best of me and waded through a few of the links. Well people have the choice to click a link or not . I’m such chicken wuss to view such gory video footages.
A written description would probably be better than the video.
from Northeast Intelligence Network
excerpts:
The video showed five men wearing headscarves and black ski masks, standing over a bound man in an orange jumpsuit — similar to a prisoner’s uniform — who identified himself as Nick Berg, a U.S. contractor whose body was found on a highway overpass in Baghdad on Saturday. …..
and here
It opens with Berg sitting on a plastic chair, reciting his own name and the names of his parents and family members. The scene changes and he’s tied up on the floor in front of five masked mujahideen, as one reads a long droning Arabic statement from a piece of paper. The audio is a few seconds ahead of the video; suddenly you hear a chorus of screams and shouts that don’t match the video. Then, as the yelling and keening intensifies, the one who read the statement puts away the paper, pulls a long knife out of his shirt, leaps onto Nick Berg and begins sawing his head off. Another one jumps on Nick’s back and pins his arms as he dies. The others caper and dance, calling out “Allahu Akhbar!”
The screaming and gagging is nightmarish. And it’s not quick.
The video ends with one of these creatures holding up Berg’s head while the camera pans in for closeups of the head and body. And the lake of blood.
I’m definitely not going to view the video as I still want to keep my sanity (or whatever is left of it) intact.
