Allah lovers release Polish beheading video

Good Post. This incident will further dent Pakistan's international image and bolster the fact that Pakistani government is not fighting with fundamentalist terrorists on its soil.

The video should be taken down. I do not think that we want to encourage beheading here nor give terrorist prime time on this site for that would just encourage more such videos to be made and meaning more victims. Some times censorship is appropriated and I am would suggest you do it your self. 

The video does not show the execution -- it only bares the mindset of the killers.

I have a problem with the title of the article. Even as an atheist I find the term "Allah lovers" offensive towards Muslims and otherwise trashy.  I can't understand why it was promoted to the front page.   

I agree with Ms. Negativity and Paschen.

I believe in citizens journalism we call a spade a spade........

What is written in the banner? Urdu or Arabic? And translation also please..

I think calling the criminals Allah lovers is wrong. They are just criminals. I think no religion in the world has permitted the killing of innocent people. These people have committed a great crime therefore, they should be called as criminals not Allah lovers. Allah Almighty never allows the killing of innocent people. Polish engineer is the guest of Pakistan and killing of guest is being considered a coward act. These terrorists should be called as criminals not Allah lovers.

voiceforpeace  "I think no religion in the world has permitted the killing of innocent people"  would you like to reword that statement for it is not actually correct the world has seem many religions one or more permitted cutting out the heart of a young innocent maiden so it could be offered to the gods or a god. Also the great catholic religious movement has a very lucid past.

However I agree yes these criminal should not be termed servants of any God. But the problem is they shout very loud that they are doing the work of Allah this does not fool most sensible people we know exactly what these un-human people are.

They should be referred to as 'BASTARDS' !

This is mistake in the name of polish engineer . His name is Piotr Stańczak .

The taliban conflict inflict horrific abuses and the west is best left out of it, cause damned if you do, and damned if you don't interfere! Of course we in the west must abide by the rules of war, red cross and geneva convention, yet the Terrorists, Poo Poo this idea of rules of engagement and prisoners unless it happens to be them at stake, then the cowardly chicken shits spout abuse, abuse, please abide by the rules of war, red cross, geneva convention, then whiny little asses that they are plead for the world to stop their incarceration at Gitmo as inhuman as they slice into the human flesh of an innocent for their imaginary friend Allah! I say execute em on sight and save the taxpayers the bother of imprisoning them. Sure as shooting Canada may revisit this if it accepts terrorists from Gitmo.

I think the title might have read "Self Professed Allah Lovers" rather than implicating all Muslims. I really think the point is HATE, control and power and not love at all. Additionally, the Taliban, is sometimes  promoted to be a legitimate group , non-terrorist, (as in Pakistan where they are trying to get resettled) and I think this is never the case. I think the entire basis for the Taliban is terrorism at it's core. The abuse of certain groups (specifically all women in this case) to enforce control through terror and is a basic terrorist tactic.

I, too, find the title offensive.  I am a Christian, but people who claim to be Christians have done many crimes against humanity.  I would not like to see a headline over their deeds saying "Jesus Lovers."  It would be unfair to make the behavior of a few representative of the entire religion.  The same thing goes here, I believe.

The Taliban are pushing their extreme and twisted views and trying to create fear within the public.  Negative stories are always the big scoop, but in order for us to fight against this type of extremism we have to educate and report positive aspects of Islam.  The more we know about the religion and its teachings the better off we are against such extreme ideas. 

They're using the media as a tool and a lot of mainstream networks are giving them front and centre stage labelling The Taliban as Muslim Terrorists. The networks have to do a better job at distinguishing the difference between the two. They shouldn't even be called muslims because their extreme ideas don't even represent Islam.

I think the title is fine. If Christians were (still) doing this kind of crap, I would think that titling the story "Jesus Lovers" would be very fair. 99% of Muslims may (or may not) be non-violent, but atrocities are being committed in the name of that religion daily. What bothers me is that I don't hear any great outcry from so-called "non-violent" Muslims. By their silence, they endorse this terrorism. In the absence of an extremely vocal denouncement from all Muslim leaders, I don't see how you can argue that this isn't the type of thing Muslims go for. When that bishop denied the holocaust, the pope said "take it back or else." I don't hear that type of condemnation from Muslim leaders directed toward these animals.

.. we will remember this murder and here is the message to Pakistan people: KEEP AWAY FROM MY COUNTRY (POLAND) AND ME. We will kill you as well as you kill our innocent man.

cheers

I too do not think the title of this post is appropriate.

I would not agree however that the video (which doesn't work lol!) should be taken down on the pretexts that it "encourages" beheading. After all, there are pictures on NP at this very moment showing terribly injured children in Gaza and a video showing a dying child purported to have been a victim of shelling in Gaza, but that does not mean that they were put up to encourage the killing of children.

Any video showing extreme violence should be labelled sensitive material, but not cut.

Thanks
