Fucking camera man. Switch to decaf. It was like watching the Blair Witch Project.

Things might have been pretty frantic at the point when that footage was taken. If it's the same stuff they're showing on mainstream TV here, it's a medium close up of him dead on the ground covered in blood. A bit wobbly, but I'm not surprised about that. You'd have to have such a surge of adrenaline that just about anyone would be shaking wouldn't they?

Look closer. TheMercenary is there screaming Allah Akbar while trying to stab him with a rusty knife.

Taking a rusty knife to another country will not kill more Taliban.

Besides. Assad is not so delusional as to make Kaddafi’s mistake. Assad will not call for genocide. The UN will have to find another excuse.

Assad is very cleverly limiting the killings to no more than a few dozen per day. I read a while back the Syrian death toll was around 2,900, all done little by little.

Personally I'd rather see revolution in Iran.

I've been seeing a little bit more talk of this as of late. Be careful what you ask for...

I heard today that he's in a freezer in the local supermarket to everyone can come have a look and believe it with their own eyes.

I was at a girls breast cancer lunch and out of my mouth popped the words, "your local IGA. How the locals like it". Which is currently a slogan from an ad campaign here.

Poor humour I know, but it got a pretty good laugh.
