To attribute such things purely to islamic militants isn't accurate. I'm pretty sure that the aftermath of any of america's bombing campaigns looks pretty gruesome too. I think the more important question is: Why do people support wars and then complain about the things that happen in wars? Beheading may seem horrible and tragic, but shit like that is par for the course in military conflict. You can bet your sweet ass that if american forces found a strategic advantage in beheadings we'd be first in line with a super high-tech beheading process engineered by some defense contractor. If you don't believe me ask yourself, how long after 9/11 was it that torture was being considered as a viable means to ensure our security?
