Terrorists Trained by Beheading Animals

According to this AP story, Syrian Intelligence Officers conducted training of terrorists in Iraq on how to behead people. One officer, Lt. Anas Ahmed al-Essa, 30, of the Syrian Intelligence Service, stated in a video broadcast by state-run Iraqiya TV that they beheaded animals as practice for decapitating hostages.

Dr. Shackleford has already covered this story along with Chad Evans at In The Bullpen, however, the 'beheading animals' aspect is probably worthy of additional mention. If, in fact, animals were beheaded during training, and it can be proven, the pro-terrorist bias in the leftist media will be greatly reduced. It's interesting that the anti-American utopians can watch innocent people being beheaded day after day without comment, but let a dog or a cat or Mary's little lamb lose its noggin and the do-gooders will have a cow. So, let's see the videotape.
