Islamic Militants Behead Alleged "CIA Spy"

This report from Reuters states that an Islamic militant group, the Army of Ansar al-Sunna, posted still pictures on its website showing the apparent beheading of a man it called a CIA spy.
The group said in an accompanying statement that Jamal Tewefic Salman, who became an U.S. citizen in 1980, confessed to be masquerading as a journalist in Iraq to spy on Islamic fighters for the CIA.

"A group of mujahideen were able to kidnap a spy called Jamal Tewefic Salman, who got U.S. citizenship in 1980. He changed his name to Khaled Abdul Messih," it said.
