The video footage of Eugene Armstrong is, obviously, quite horrific. What's also alarming about the video is that it appears that Armstrong is either a)heavily drugged and moving constantly before the bastards saw his head off or b)is praying profusely, knowing he is about to die.
It takes over 5 minutes before they kill him, so watch it and tell me what you think. I exited the video as the knife was being pulled out. I didn't need to see something like that again.
I would imagine that he'd already prayed, as did tons of people for him, that he would be at peace/spared, so I'm hoping he was heavily drugged at the time of his beheading.
Oh, wait, nevermind...tell me about how great John Kerry was in Vietnam again.
And when you're done, we can talk about Bush's National Guard record. Because those things are so important.
You've gotta love those peaceful religions.
And non-biased news networks.
Oh, the rapturous delight that is modernity!
Religion isn't the problem -- it's people's interpretations of their religion.
