Just saw this on AOL.. Also My local news station is also saying head od Alquada in Saudi arrested.


al Qaida have posted pictures of Paul Johnson's body on the Internet


The al Qaida group which kidnapped American Paul M Johnson Jr said in an online statement that it had killed the hostage - and posted three still photographs of his beheaded body.

"In answer to what we promised ... to kill the hostage Paul Marshall after the period is over ... the infidel got his fair treatment. ... Let him taste something from what Muslims tasted who were long reached by Apache helicopter fire and missiles," the Internet statement said.

Johnson, 49, worked on targeting and night vision systems for Apache helicopters.

"We, God willing, will continue our road to fight the enemies of God," the statement said.

A Saudi senior security official, reached by The Associated Press, said: "We have so far nothing on this."

In Washington, a CIA spokesperson said the agency was not able to immediately confirm the report of Johnson's beheading.

Johnson was kidnapped last weekend by militants who threatened to kill him by Friday if the kingdom did not release its al Qaida prisoners.

Earlier, the Arab satellite network Al-Arabiya reported that Johnson had been beheaded. The United States Embassy in Riyadh said it was "working on verification" of the claim.


One of the three photographs posted on the Internet site showed a man's head, face towards the camera, being held by a hand. The other two showed a beheaded body lying prone on a bed, with the severed head placed in the small of his back.

The face looked like Johnson's. Saudi security officials said later that the body of Mr Johnson had been found just outside Riyadh. The officials said police had cordoned off the area, blocking all roads leading to the al-Munisiyah district, 25 miles northeast of the capital.

The lesson of Nazi Germany was not that Germans were bad, but that people can be led to insanity. These people are insane. Worse- they will attract young people and ruin generations- if they do not slowly destroy the world.

I'm not noble...identify the SOBs and I will demonstrate multitasking. Judge, Jury and Executioner.
 
I offer my condolences to his friends and family.
May God give them peace.
He died helping to rid the world of evil.
 
Beheading is simply a shock tactic used to intimidate. Dead is dead however you get dead.

The terrorist thugs don't realize how lucky they are that I'm not President. I would welcome impeachment right after I torch the entire middle east.
 
:grumpy: And this after just watching the movie "Out of the Ashes". (Based on a true story of a jewish Dr. in Auschwitz.) I think it's time we stop playing Mr. Diplomat and starting with getting our people out of there, bomb the trash out of the A$$..... from one end of the country to the other. It's time we stop letting our boys die in this totally out of control, no rules war that is a loser if we don't play hard ball. We need to play by their rules.....I think this was for the political forum....sorry...sort of...
 
My immediate gut reaction is to go after the perpetrators families -- kill mother, father, sisters, brothers, wife, children, nieces, nephews publicly and sew them all in hoghides and bury them. This along with a promise of repeat performances for every Westerner, not just American, murdered by their organization.

This is not the Buddhist way but it is my first anger driven course of action.
 
Another sad day for mankind. We all pray to see permanent peace in our lifetime.
 
Lately I have been wondering, from a Buddhist perspective, what is a man supposed to do when an enemy has sworn to kill him? :confused:

Is that what you believe the war in Iraq is about - "ridding the world of evil"?
Do you believe that "ridding the world of evil" is an achievable objective?
 
It's going to get a lot worse.

You have a government which cannot even stem an invasion by millions across it's own southern border, yet people expect them to stamp out grass roots, fundamentalist Muslim guerrillas on the other side of the world.
 
I heard on the news that the Saudi's are claiming to have shot dead the ringleader and a few other gunmen this morning.

mexican lettuce pickers are not exactly "red dawn"
lets not get dramatic.

Maybe you've been in Japan too long my friend. I live in Arizona and I can tell you, it's an invasion.

There was over 12,000 illegals a month coming over just at Douglas, Arizona, and that was before Bush suggested amnesty and the figures across the entire border doubled.

There is in excess of 10 million illegals here now. Ranches along the border are getting trashed and destroyed. Officials in the Mexican government openly talk about how they are 'colonizing' the US and how they will 'Latinize' this country. Mexican troops have fired at Border Patrol units and they regularly help drug smugglers.

The US government does nothing, except of course, to arrest US citizens that try to do a citizen's arrest of any of the illegals.

It's a culture war without too many bullets, at least for now, and the US will lose the Southwest unless something is done to stem the tide. Don't be too surprised if it flares up into a real shooting war sometime in the future.
 
Sensationalism. You've been reading those fascist Latin american websites, eh? I saw one from south america a while back. About as silly as white fascists.

My friends in Panama and Brasil are not planning invasion plans, I assure you, and neither are their neighbors.

Curent estimates state that populations of Spanish speaking folk are on the rise all over, so what? If I wasn't born white, would I care? Wait, I was born white, and I don't care.

People are people. the US is a good country to live in, comparitively. It is a good sign when people flee TO your country, not FROM it.

Last time I checked, we stole this land from Mexica tribes and Native American tribes. Any 'stemming of the tide' shoulda been done by them, by burning the Ships of Colombus, Cortez, and others on the beaches.

..at this point, the fascists usually call me a 'race traitor' or the like.;)

Ben Around,

I dont know if my verbatim goal is achievable, but the spirit of the words is certainly possible.
We did put hitler in the ground.
We put soviet communism in the ground.
We can put this "evil" in the ground.

I dont suggest that we will kill every last person who dislikes America.
Dont be silly.

I mean we can build modern nation-states in a region that has been languishing in a formless, lawless era far too long.

Even if they dont like us, they will have an infrastructure that will prevent this crap from happening again.
(that is my hope)

Mrostov,
I have *****d more mexican girls than you would probably care to imagine.
Theyre great in bed and in the kitchen.
I have no complaints.

No, actually I was going by what Mexican officials, like Vincinte Fox, the President of Mexico, has been saying.

Look, I know it's all warm and fuzzy to ignore anything non-Caucasians are doing that might involve any form of racial or cultural unity on the behalf of Caucasians, lest one be called a nasty racist, but there is a real, genuine crisis on the border and with illegal immigration.

This isn't just a few lettuce pickers, this is the Mexican government doing their utmost to move their border north with the full cooperation of the Bush administration. We're talking MILLIONS of people.

Crime rates are climbing. Hospitals and clinics are going broke and shutting down. Ranches are being destroyed. We're seeing diseases that have long been eliminated from our land.

The economy is rough as it is, and these people are driving wages WAY down. No, they are not all lettuce pickers and janitors.

Americans are willing to bomb and kill scads of people on the other side of the world to protect their country. They were willing to firebomb Dresden and nuke Hiroshima to protect the country. I have this picture I saved of a crying Iraqi boy with his arms and legs blown clean off by some American air dropped ordnance. His entire family was killed and he's now a hopelessly crippled orphan.

But, oh no, can't do ANYTHING to keep out MILLIONS of barefoot invaders who have no intention of assimilating into our culture, off of our own soil. Hey, you might get called a racist, golly.

This is quite a bit more serious than many want to admit, because it might involve uncomfortable thoughts. There are many issues at stake here, including the sovereignty of the US.

BTW, there's a term called 'OTM' - Other Than Mexicans. Most illegals are Mexicans, but there are a lot of OTM's in the mix, including large numbers from the Middle East. To get a nuke into this country all Osama bin Laden and his ilk have to do is load it into the back of a pickup and drive across the southern border into Arizona.
