So they've killed the second hostage. That poor man and the terror he must have felt.

The Liverpudlian is next. Tony Blair pontificates about refusing to bow to terror whilst in Liverpool today they held a candelit vigil and his eldery mother wept and pleaded for his life to be spared.

It's likely a matter of time before the third hostage is killed. Then there will be the usual rhetoric, the "strengthening" of resolve against the terrorists. Perhaps there will be more pain visited upon the poor people of Iraq.

This conflict is the most disgusting and depressing of things. And now fucking Dubya is on television speaking in slow, haughty tones about prevailing over terrorism, using the UN for election spin, the two dead American men nothing more than fodder for his spin. Words fail me.

Why can't they try to rescue these people? It doesn't seem like they are even trying to do anything, the governments just say "we won't cooperate with terrorists" and so sorry to the poor people about to be murdered.

One of those men they beheaded was from where I grew up. I'd seen him around town, he'd let me ahead of him in line at the store cause I only had a few things, and then to see him on the news as the sickos are about to kill him....
