#1 "Many Arab media also downplayed the Bergâs murder. While pictures of Berg appeared on inside pages of most Arab newspapers, the editorials continued to focus on the prisoner abuse scandal in Iraq
Editorials that did comment on the killing strongly condemned it, but those were mainly found in the English language newspapers across the region."

It's the Arafat method writ large

#3 How does the saying go? Don't take a knife to a nuclear fight? If the Islamofanatics want to get into a war of images over atrocities - who do they think is going to win that battle?

These guys may be violent and ruthless, but that's about all they are. If they didn't have the complicity of our LLL and media, this war would already be over.

#5 B-
Your comment reminds me of nothing so much as that priceless scene in 'Raiders Of The Lost Ark', where the Arab swordsman does that fancy twirling, and Indy drops him with his .45 on the spot.
Except this time, Indy's packing a Minuteman III...
