American beheaded in Iraq

[kingbilly]

A website claiming to be linked to the group holding Ken Bigley and two Americans said one of the Americans had been killed.

The website carried a nine-minute video purporting to show the man being beheaded.

The US recovered the body of the man shown on the tape, naming him as Eugene Armstrong, unconfirmed reports have said.

"His body has been recovered and it's been identified," a US official told Reuters news agency on condition of anonymity.

A militant group loyal to a suspected al-Qaeda leader, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, said it had beheaded the hostage.

This is absolutely barbaric.. How can these people call themselves, well whatever they want to call themselves???I know they cannot be human, they have no hearts or souls...
But to film this as well words cannot describe these sick individuals...I hope they rot in hell....
Just cannot start to think what the poor hostages families are going through, it makes me want to cry.....

There are no words awful enough to describe these barbarians.

I'm so saddened by this news. I was praying so hard for all the recent hostages.

I'm still so worried about all the others being held captive and all the people helping the Iraqis

I'm also so very angry with these pigs. These heartless, souless evil beings.

I pray we never ever forget about them; that we don't become numb to it being so far away from them.

God bless all the hostages and the families of the hostages. Give them strength to get through this ordeal. I also pray that the hostage takers get their just reward.
