The Blog of Death: a diary of mindless Islamic Supremacist violence

BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) -- The U.S. military recovered the booby-trapped bodies of two missing soldiers Tuesday, and Iraqi officials said the Americans were tortured and killed in a "barbaric" way. An insurgent group claimed the new leader of al-Qaida in Iraq executed the men personally.

MDA reported that a school bus carrying a group of 16-year old girls was making its way Monday afternoon to the Ofra settlement near Jerusalem when shots were fired at the bus from the direction of the neighboring Arab village of Kafr Sinjil.

We now know that it was not that swift for Bahjat. First she was stripped to the waist, a humiliation for any woman but particularly so for a pious Muslim who concealed her hair, arms and legs from men other than her father and brother.

…By the time filming begins, the condemned woman has been blindfolded with a white bandage.

It is stained with blood that trickles from a wound on the left side of her head. She is moaning, although whether from the pain of what has already been done to her or from the fear of what is about to be inflicted is unclear.

…A large man dressed in military fatigues, boots and cap approaches from behind and covers her mouth with his left hand. In his right hand, he clutches a large knife with a black handle and an 8in blade. He proceeds to cut her throat from the middle, slicing from side to side.

Her cries — “Ah, ah, ah” — can be heard above the “Allahu akbar” (God is greatest) intoned by the holder of the mobile phone.

Even then, there is no quick release for Bahjat. Her executioner suddenly stands up, his job only half done. A second man in a dark T-shirt and camouflage trousers places his right khaki boot on her abdomen and pushes down hard eight times, forcing a rush of blood from her wounds as she moves her head from right to left.

Only now does the executioner return to finish the task. He hacks off her head and drops it to the ground, then picks it up again and perches it on her bare chest so that it faces the film-maker in a grotesque parody of one of her pieces to camera.

…She had nine drill holes in her right arm and 10 in her left, he said. The drill had also been applied to her legs, her navel and her right eye. One can only hope that these mutilations were made after her death.

It is obvious that these two Islamofascists were quite brave while they were torturing a bound and half-naked woman but we suspect that they would squeal to high heaven at the mere sight of even one man with any kind of weapon in his hands. We hope the Iraqis catch up with these individuals so we can hear them squeal and beg for their lives when the ropes are put around their necks, as Iraq has already done with several terrorists. There is nothing wrong with these two individuals that a long drop and a sudden stop will not fix.

"A suicide car bomber killed dozens of people in an Iraqi town yesterday when he rammed his vehicle into American and Iraqi soldiers as they handed out toys and sweets to children outside a hospital. But instead of inflicting mass casualties among the soldiers, the bomber's victims were mostly children, medics and patients, killed when the brunt of the blast was taken by the hospital's emergency room, which was wrecked by the explosion."

"For Nadia Alami and Ashraf Muhammad Akhras it was a day they would never forget. They had just arrived at the Radisson for their wedding and their parents were welcoming the guests when one of the bombers struck, killing both their fathers and more than a dozen guests."

...the Jordanian-born al-Zarqawi made clear he was not about to stop the bloodshed, warning he will attack more tourist sites in Jordan and threatening to behead King Abdullah II. ...We will be able to reach your head and chop it off," al-Zarqawi said, referring to the king.

May 2004: the Murder of Nick Berg Whenever you hear Hitler in a Headscarf yelling "Allahu Akbar!" it is almost a sure thing that he is usually butchering a human being-- most probably a bound and helpless one as opposed to an armed combatant. In the latter case, he would be far more likely to be squealing in terror and running like a rabbit.

(Source) One of the worst incidents occurred on April 13, 1948. A convoy of 70 doctors and nurses making their way to Hadassah Hospital on Mount Scopus was ambushed by Arabs. This happened 200 yards of a British police station. After a seven-hour shoot-out, during which the British did nothing, all the doctors and nurses were killed. Afterwards, the Arabs mutilated their bodies.
