Saudi security forces killed a top al Qaeda leader in the kingdom shortly after the decapitated body of American hostage Paul Johnson Jr. was left in a remote area of Riyadh, security sources said.
Abdel Aziz al-Muqrin, the self-proclaimed military leader of al Qaeda in Saudi Arabia, was killed while disposing of Johnson's body, the Arabic-language television network Al-Arabiya reported.
Wonder If they cut his head off. What , they found him while disposing the body , but couldnt find him before they beheaded Johnson ?
SA government must have know the area or how would they know where to look for a body being dumped ?

He's dead. Let's get symbolic with him and it may deter a few other terrorists.
Coat him in pig fat. Place him INSIDE the carcass of a pig and burn them both to ashes. Grind any remaining bones and combine the bone meal and ashes and dispose of them. Then make an announcement that this method of disposal will be used for all active terrorists.
Then make another announcement: Any terrorist directly or INDIRECTLY involved with the kidnapping or murder of any hostage will be killed or captured. If killed see above. If captured he will be castrated, then questianed.
Nuking the whole place was my knee-jerk response. I know that a lot of muslims seem to enjoy seeing Americans humiliated and murdered... but they are still not the ones that are killing civilians. The terrorists are.

While a lot of the big money people in Saudi Arabia are financing Al Queda, the leaders have a lot to fear from this group. While I don't like the idea of having to kill another human being, the world is better off when terrorists are nullified.

Well put, CB. We don't need to kill the civilians; we'll have our hands full showing no mercy to the terrorists themselves.
And I do think it's very odd that Saudi security forces found al Muqrin only after the murder of Mr. Johnson. Seems to me that if they were able to locate him so quickly afterwards, they must've been pretty close all along. Or knew and didn't bother acting in time.
What I have to ask is how come they can hunt them down & kill them in a matter of hours and it takes us what seems like forever to finish the job, if we ever do.
