  1. “The journalist’s body, his throat slit, was found months later in a shallow ditch” — not true!!! And way too sanitary a reference!! He was decapitated and cut into pieces!! All this shown on video by his butchers!!
    see Wikipedia, for example
    “In the video, Pearl’s body is shown naked from the waist up with his throat slit at about 1 minute and 55 seconds into the video. A man then cuts his head off. A few more images, such as captives held at Guantanamo Bay, are shown near the image of Pearl’s head. The last 90 seconds of the video show the list of demands scrolling, superimposed on an image of Pearl’s severed head being held by the hair.”

  2. Gevalt! But, isn’t a little late? Or, is the Pakistani government trying to earn diplomatic points with the United States?
