Their goal: To establish a Caliphate that includes East Africa, the Middle East and Central Asia.
That’s hysterical. and they call us Imperialist and Expansionary! Just let those social freaks try to put me in a bhurka, I’ll chien tiu ti them right in the cookies!
:mad:
The news outlets haven’t been explicit on what the State Department saw in the video to make them determine Pearl was dead. But it had to have been a cut throat or a hole in the head or something like that, I would think.

His throat was cut.
Fox news just said “stabbed to death a minute ago.”
Why does the phrase “live by the sword, DIE, motherfu(ker DIE, by the sword” come to my mind?
I need a beer. Anybody in Austin want lunch and a beer?

CNN said that on the video he was talking and then his throat was cut. Regardless, there is no negotiating with these people. Kill 'em all and let God sort them out. I wish I could join you for a beer up there but I already missed two days of work this week.
It’s time to take those guys out…mafia style…we can’t get to them…get to their families…I’m sorry…this is no time for morals…explain it to them in a language they understand…violence.
Yeah, modified LA style. Introduce them to the Camel-by!!
Couldn’t resist that one.
Yep, now Fox is saying his throat was cut.
Maybe they don’t see a difference, maybe he was stabbed and his throat was cut.
Must wait…to be…deployed…
Still needin that beer.

ROFLMAO @ “Camel-by”.
That’s a classic!
I heard on the news that his head where literally chopped off…
But whatever they did, the result is his death. very sad.
I guess that should clear up any debate about us not treating prisoners humanely.
“I AM A JEW”.
I hope he said it proudly and with defiance in his voice.
He must have been onto something for them to send this kind of message. I’d put this down as a miscalculation by the badguys. Did they think they were going to scare off other journalists? And now the FBI is back to investigating them here in the US.
I would imagine they knew who they were dealing with. Watched a national geographic special on Daniel. He caught a lot of footage of the soviets misbehaving in afghanistan before other journalists were making it out there, and had a big helping hand in bringing attention to the fact that the soviets weren’t in complete control, and thus vulnerable.
Could be the enemy was familiar enough with what kind of work he does, and knew he’d do his best to expose their weaknesses.
I only wish that his wife and unborn child can cope with the grief.
Intelligence and law enforcement officials who have viewed the tape said it showed Mr. Pearl, full face and in conversation until the hands of unknown assailants intruded into the picture to pull his head back by the hair and to slit his throat. Later in the tape, Mr. Pearl’s dismembered head was shown, said the officials, who spoke on condition that their nationalities not be specified.
That is taken from a story in the NY Times.
Savage basstards, they accomplish nothing except strengthen the resolve of those that may of been on the fence, not to mention their only allies…the press.

Rogue sez
Rogue-
Your list is considerably skewed. Pakistan’s Interservice Intelligence has been the real government withing the Pakistan army. They are the folks who lit the fire under the Taliban and
other terrorist groups in South Asia. Under US pressure Musharraf
shows a different face for his personal survival. Omar Sheikh , the guy now held for Pearl’s murder is responsible also for the attack on India’s parliament, the front of the USIS in Calcutta and his “Colleagues” have been involved in numerous terrorist acts in india. The American Taliban Lind now on trial has infiltrated into India as well in his Taliban days.Bin Laden’s terror list prominently included India-the same for the terrorists in pakistan.
Cant be selective about the terrorists- with Pakistani support they have roamed in many places in the region.
Dont be fooled by the Pakistani dictatorship-the fox is in the chicken coop.
TW-Cina is about to build a big naval port in West Pakistan-
really not in the US interest. Think of the big picture.

The latest Reports on Reuters and AP
say that he was dead already when the Tape was shot.
It was not immediately apparent, due to the way that the tape was cut and edited.
P.S.: No proof, that they are evenlinked to Al Quaeda.
As expected chop one head of the Terrorist Hydra and it will sprout another 3 new ones.Definately a fight that the US cannot win, unless the eradicate every single Human on Earth.
Of course you’re correct yuanfen, the ISI has been a supporter, supplier and trainer for what we’re now calling al Qeda. I still don’t know how the dynamic between England & the US, India and Pakistan will work out. That’s one reason I put Pakistan in as a wildcard. I don’t trust Musharraf, but I also don’t know how much of an Islamic zealot or how pragmatic he is either. Iraq is there because Sadaam could careless about Islam and has visions of a Pan Arabian Iraqi state in mind anyway.
“Americans can’t walk around free as long as our government’s policies continue,” he said. “America will bear the consequences of our government’s unconditional support for Israel.”
‘SOURCES FAMILIAR WITH THE contents of the vicious home movie, obtained by the FBI on Friday, say Pearl’s throat is then suddenly slit with a knife. A hand is shown holding his severed head. The tape cuts to his captors repeatedly stabbing his lifeless body. Pearl’s head is then shown lying on a pile of newspapers as a message scrolls in the foreground: “If our demands aren’t met, there will be more scenes like this.”’
Hmmm, wonder why Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh felt safe enough to surrender to the Pakistani police.
Let’s free the Gitmo bunch, give them plenty of food and water for the trip, point them toward home and let them start swimming.
