It seems like every week, radical Muslims come up with a more disgusting low in human history. Of course, Christians know that there is "nothing new under the sun" and that man's heart is wicked to the core. But still, when you hear about kidnappers in Iraq returning a woman's infant beheaded and cooked or terrorists using children as a ploy to car bomb a military outpost with the kids still in the car, it is hard to believe that - please pardon the expression - humans could be that cruel. But once again, they have shown that they can be even worse.
The boy with the knife looks barely 12. In a high-pitched voice, he denounces the bound, blindfolded man before him as an American spy. Then he hacks off the captive’s head to cries of “God is great!” and hoists it in triumph by the hair.
I've shown you in a previous post what we're fighting FOR in Iraq... this is what we're fighting against.
