It is not clear from the video if the soldiers were alive or already dead before the decapitations.


AL Qaeda releases video of the two kidnapped and slaughtered US soldiers:

An al Qaeda faction has released a video showing the murder of two soldiers captured June 19. SITE reports:

The two victims, Kristian Menchaca and Thomas Tucker, were members of the 101st Airborne division abducted by al Qaeda in Iraq. A third soldier died in the attack.

Their bodies were later recovered not far from where they had been kidnapped. The US military now says that their corpses were found tied together with a bomb between them. Three roadside bombs were planted around the bodies. The bodies had been decapitated.

The video bears the logo of al Qaeda in Iraq. Contrary to reports by al Qaeda, the video appears to show that the two soldiers were already dead before at least one of them was beheaded.

After a brief introdcuction with an image and the voice of Osama bin Laden, the video shows the two dead soldiers lying on a bridge.  (photos) http://mypetjawa.mu.nu/archives/183865.php  Both are already dead. One of the men has already been beheaded, the other man is dead. An al Qaeda member holds the severed head of one of the dead soldiers. One of the two soldiers appear to have been shot, the other has multiply wounds but appears to have also been hit by an explosive. The video also blurs out one of the dead men’s genitels, apparently al Qaeda believes showing that would be over-the-top. Later, an image of the now dead leader of al Qaeda in Iraq, Abu Musab al Zarqawi, is superimposed over the film. Zarqawi had personally murdered several people by beheading and then released those films on the internet.

The entire video has a voice over of what sounds like Abu Musab al Zaraqawi–but it could be the new al Qaeda leader in Iraq calling Muslims to jihad. A nasheed, or Islamic jihad song, can also be heard in the background.

American Beheaded on Web Video

By Sewell Chan and Ariana Eunjung Cha. Washington Post Foreign Service. Wednesday, May 12, 2004.

BAGHDAD, May 11 -- A 26-year-old Pennsylvania businessman missing in Iraq since early April was shown being decapitated by five masked Islamic militants in a fuzzy video posted on the Internet on Tuesday. The militants claimed in the video that the grisly killing was in revenge for the abuses
 suffered by Iraqis at the U.S.-run Abu Ghraib prison near Baghdad
.

This is an image made from a video posted Tuesday May 11, 2004 on an Islamic Web site affiliated with al-Qaida showing a group of five men wearing headscarves and black ski masks standing over a bound man in an orange jumpsuit, who identified himself as Nick Berg,a U.S contractor whose body was found on a highway overpass in Baghdad on Saturday. (AP Photo via APTN) From: http://www.yahoo.com/

 

In the video, Nicholas Berg, of West Chester, Pa., outside Philadelphia, was shown sitting on the floor in an orange jumpsuit, with his black-clad captors standing behind him. After reading a statement saying they sought to avenge the suffering of Iraqi prisoners at the hands of U.S. soldiers, the men decapitated him.

The grisly slaying, reminiscent of the killing of American journalist Daniel Pearl in Pakistan in early 2002, is likely to send new waves of fear among the thousands of foreign contractors and entrepreneurs who have been lured to Iraq by the promise of financial opportunity and a chance to rebuild its war-ravaged infrastructure. Dozens of foreigners have been kidnapped over the past month, but nearly all were released.

SUNNI EXTREMIST GROUPS IN THE UNITED STATES

Sunni extremist organizations that have expressed an interest in attacking the United States have maintained a presence here for years. These groups use America's openness to establish roots in our communities and focus on training, recruiting and fundraising, rather then carrying out terrorist attacks. For these groups, the value of fundraising and recruiting far outweighs the benefit of an attack.

Since September 11, 2001, Federal authorities have raided and shut down at least twenty-five charities contributing to terrorist activities, including some that served as front companies for al-Qaeda.⁷² For example, on October 13, 2004, the U.S. Treasury Department designated the Islamic African Relief Agency (IARA), also known as the Islamic American Relief Agency, as a supporter of terrorism. The designation froze all accounts, funds and assets of IARA, a charity that belongs to a larger network with headquarters in the Sudan. According to the Treasury Department, the charity funneled hundreds of thousands of dollars to Usama bin Laden and al-Qaeda. In addition, in 2002 U.S. authorities raided the offices of the Benevolence International Foundation (BIF). The Government charged various people tied to the organization with trying to obtain chemical and nuclear weapons on behalf of al-Qaeda.

Since the 1980s, terrorist organizations have developed a sophisticated and diverse financial infrastructure within the United States. It is widely known that almost every terrorist organization from Hamas to al-Qaeda has accessed America's financial resources and institutions to their benefit. They have leveraged magazines, mosques and charities as front organizations to support terrorist activities overseas. Although these groups do not share all the same objectives, they have shown the willingness to work together in the United States to raise money for terrorist activities (See Figure 5).⁷³

Terrorists also exploit various venues to raise funds and spread their violent message to a wider audience, most unwitting of the source. For example, at the 1996 annual convention of the Islamic Association for Palestine (IAP) in Chicago, Abdurahman Alamoudi told the audience, "once we are here, our mission in this country is to change it. There is no way for Muslims to be violent in America, no way. We have other means to do it."⁷⁴

Alamoudi, who has been a guest at the White House on several occasions under the Clinton and Bush Administration's, pleaded guilty to smuggling money into the country, as well as to participating in a plot to kill the then-crown prince of Saudi Arabia. Not all people who speak at these conventions are radical or favor violence against the United States. In fact, extremists account for only a very small percentage of the people who attend these functions, but the events also attract the worst of terrorists. In the past, these Muslim conferences have even hosted the likes of Ayman Zawahiri, who is believed to have attended a fundraising conference in Santa Clara, California for the Egyptian Islamic Jihad sometime after the first World Trade Center attack.⁷⁵ This would have been al-Zawahiri's second visit to the United States since 1989.

The Many Faces of an Islamist Extremist Threat

"The call to wage war against America was made because America has spearheaded the crusade against the Islamic nation, sending tens of thousands of its troops to the land of the two Holy Mosques over and above its meddling in its affairs and its politics, and its support of the oppressive, corrupt and tyrannical regime that is in control. These are the reasons for singling America out as a target (August 23, 1996)."¹

"It is a duty for the Umma [nation] with all its categories, men, women and youths, to give away themselves, their money, experiences and all types of material support.... Jihad today is an imperative for every Muslim. The Umma will commit sin if it did not provide adequate material support for jihad (April 24, 2006)."²

"The battles that are going on in the far-flung regions of the Islamic world, such as Chechnya, Afghanistan, Kashmir, and Bosnia, they are just the groundwork for the major battles which have begun in the heart of the Islamic world ... . If our intended goal in this age is the establishment of a Caliphate in the manner of the Prophet and we expect to establish its state predominantly according to how it appears to us in the heart of the Islamic world, then your efforts and sacrifices, God permitting, are a large step towards that goal (July 9, 2005)."³

"As for similar operations taking place in America, it is only a matter of time. They [the terrorists] are in the final stages, and you will see them in the heart of your land as soon as the planning is complete (January 20, 2006)."⁴
