James Foley

Post over at NPR re: should we or shouldn't we watch the video of James Foley's beheading:
But others come at the question from a range of angles. There are those who see the video as proof of the militants' barbarity and of the tragedy of Foley's death. Some see the restriction of images as censorship. Others question why the killing of an innocent American should be treated differently from other cases.
Really - we need "proof" of barbarity on this world?

I never watched the Daniel Pearl video. And I cannot for the life of me imagine why anyone would want to watch this video.
