The AP reports that whether or not a good Islamic fascist can morally behead a Muslim is a topic of some debate:
Debate raged on Islamic Web sites about the propriety of killing fellow Muslims who work for coalition forces in Iraq, after militants released three Turkish hostages they had threatened to behead.
AP reports that most of the fascists are of the "behead 'em all, let Allah sort it out" ilk.
Most people who post messages on several Islamic Web sites known for their extremist bent believe those are justified.
Some are more forgiving
Some people appealed on the kidnappers to spare the Turks because they were "fellow Muslims." Others urged militants to decapitate them.
Then again...
"Turkish Muslims should be the first to demand that those hypocrites be beheaded, as they are allied with the devil," meaning the Americans, one person wrote on a Web site that has published al-Zarqawi statements and claims of responsibility for other killings. "They should serve as an example to every apostate."Another contributor who identified himself as "enemy of the foreign infidels" said he supported the decapitation of hostages - but not Muslim ones.
"Slaughtering is something you started with the infidel Crusaders and their allies, and we hope you won't deviate from that path," he wrote. But "they're Muslims, so don't kill them ... as long as they didn't cause direct harm."
..."There is a lot of confusion concerning this beheading issue, and more so in the case of beheadings of Muslims," said Dia'a Rashwan, a Cairo expert on Islamic militants.
There's a lot of confusion all right.
But let me clear things up for you: beheading innocents and POWs is against the Geneva Conventions.
Not convincing enough for ya?
How about it's just plain wrong.
