Real Evil
Cori Dauber at Rantingprofs points out this Washington Post article: Security Tight After Beheading of 3 Indonesian Girls
The bodies of the girls, dressed in brown school uniforms, were left at the site of the attack. Their heads were found at separate locations two hours later. One student survived the attack, which police said was carried out by six men wielding machetes.
My first reaction is just sheer anger. al Qaeda has made beheadings of “infidels” a vogue statement of Islamist faith. I can only assume that these six men are now looking forward to their rewards of virgins in paradise.
Once again, we see evil staring us in the face. It’s not because of Bush or Iraq or oil that this happened, and no amount of left-wing spin can make it so. This is sick, twisted behavior instilled in men by those who are using them to inject themselves into power.
Why should we even try to appease this “philosophy”?
Update: If you have the stomach for it, pictures are at Dog Pundit (hat tip: Foreign Dispatches).
