I was about to watch it, but I can live without it, so I'll pass.

I can't watch it either.  It was hard enough last week reading about his widow giving birth to their child.

I won't watch it either. Perhaps we do owe only truth to the dead, but I'll respect the wishes of his wife. And I'll allow him the dignity of dying without me as an onlooker.

 

We all know what happened. We all know the people who did it are the worst kind of scum. It's contemptible to gawk at the vulgar details.

I think it's important to watch it, lest we ever forget what animals we're dealing with.

 

I want to take that footage and ram it down the throat of ever peacenik who feels that we've gone too far with our "War on Terrorism" (I'm looking at YOU, Berkeley).  Hell, we haven't gone far ENOUGH.

 

Wake me when the Middle East is a sea of radioactive glass.

That's a little unfair... Israel shouldn't have to pay for the impoliteness of her neighbors.

I saw it before coming here. I love how they made Pearl say how his situation is similar to the ones at Camp X-Ray.

The really fucked up thing is that he was already dead when they filmed the decapitation. They ran out of battery about halfway through, so they pretty much glued his head back in place, got a new battery, and went at it again. But, no, these people aren't terrorists and they aren't arabs. So no racial profiling needed! These people are the real victims, the guys holding the American citizen by the hair and cutting off his goddamned head. We should send some relief aid or something over there, so they can figure out a way to do this again. The real bad guys here are the Americans. Damn us! Damn us to hell for being everything they hate! Well, maybe if they could look up from their beating of women with sticks and stoning women to death for showing too much toe cleavage, they'd realize they're living in a fucking primative environment. Hammurabi's law says an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth...so we should hijack one of their airplanes and crash it into one of their skyscrapers. Oh..wait....they don't have the technology to build anything over three feet off the ground. It's like Jim Breur(Brewer?) said, it's like we're fighting the sand people from Star Wars. Fine, we can leave Israel out of this, but I'm not going to be happy until Afghanistan is a fucking parking lot, and George Dubbya sits atop a gas-guzzling suburban that's fully loaded with leather interior from the finest Afghan cattle, loud heavy metal, and Playboy bunnies running around naked while covered in green jello. Why green jello? Why the fuck not? It's the American dream, damnit.

And to think we didn't offer the Camp X-Ray detainees milk with their afternoon cookie snack. I'm glad pseudo-hippie organizations like Amnesty International (sp?) have their priorities in place when it comes to criticizing countries and their civil rights violations...

I was going to watch it, but quite frankly it's to disturbing to even think about it. Goddamned monsters.

Well, I just watched it, and boy was it gruesome.  Whoever did this is scum.  What is even worse, is that these barbarians  probably think that they are doing a great service for Islam and Allah.  Well I got news for you barbarians, I am pretty sure the Koran doesn't say anything about kidnapping a reporter and decapitating him. That is murder, plain and simple.  It is really sad that Dan Pearl's baby will grow up father less now because of you.

 

I agree with a lot of what justsoyouknow said.  I am basically thinking that this whole area in general, sans Isreal, has some really f'd up people.  It's like we are dealing with people still living in the Dark Ages.  Now Isreal isn't perfect, but at least they don't have barbarians commiting these heinous crimes. I hope that these barbarians whom are on trial are found guilty and then put to death.  

 

And yes, these people are Barbarians. They are ignorant and they are brutal.  They don't care about human life, and when they are put to death, they will burn in hell, if you believe in that sort of thing.

I want to see those sick motherfuckers be punished for their crimes.  What kind of people would sacrifice the life of an innocent man just to have simple demands met> Fuck them, they don't deserve anything good from the US, or anyone.

You're right.  They deserve an American jackboot firmly up their worthless, despicable asses, and I hope the reaming is captured on film just like the slaughter of Mr Pearl.

Ok...just out of morbid curiousity, I was going to watch it.  However, after reading some of your posts, I've decided not to.  I don't think I can deal with decapitation.  Just curious though...exactly what happens on the tape and how long is it?

 

The one thought that is really scaring me is that we don't know this man, Daniel Pearl, yet we can easily access footage of him being murdered.  Imagine how advance the Internet will be with his newborn child is old enough to know & understand what happened.  This kid will probably want to see this footage and be traumatized for the rest of his life.  

 

As a matter of fact, the only reason why I won't edit the original post to take that link out is because I believe in freedom of speech.  There's just something about it that tells me that showing the world a mans death like that is wrong.

That's precisely why I didn't edit it, Dames.  I won't visit the link myself since I simply don't care to watch someone beaten and killed.  I'm already furious enough about things from the Middle East, and I really don't need to drive my blood pressure up any more over this.  If someone wants to follow the link, that's up to them, but there's nothing wrong with making that information available.

Correct, my mistake. I just remembered the Muslim name and al-Qaeda affiliation when I thought about it. I'll take that part out.

Federal Building, OKC bombed by American of Irish heritage. what's your point? All Arab males aged 18-34 are evil? Look, I hate these terrorist bastids as much as any red blooded American, but to typify all Arab males aged 18-34 is silly. Silly I tell you.

message from the poster:

 

hey guys, i didnt mean to cause an uproar or be shocking.

I put it here for the decision of people to watch it to see what these people are doing. You can edit it or delete it or what have you because its your board. I wont get tangled up in a freedom of speech uproar.

No, that's not a point anyone is trying to make.  The point is, we have been attacked repeatedly in recent years with terrorist actions, and the perpetrators of those actions have always been Arab males of a certain age group.  The fact that we refuse to scrutinize such people more closely is stupid.  How many more 9/11's do we need to see?  I personally never want to see anything like that again, and if a reasonable security measure will help deter it, then I'm all for it.  

 

It's baffling that so many people are against it because they're afraid of "offending" someone. Grow the fuck up.  LIVES are at stake, and if people want to get offended over it, too damn bad.

I don't have the balls to watch it.  I just have no desire to.

 

And I think the fact that a lot of you also feel the same way is comforting...it gives me hope that maybe we can put the sensationalistic America is behind us.
