Daniel, you shall not be forgotten!
I would like to take a moment to honour the memory of Daniel Pearl, a brave journalist who would have turned 43 today, had he not been kidnapped and beheaded by islamoterrorists four years ago, for being American, Jewish, and investigating the funding of a terrorist group. The man responsible for his murder is, what a surprise! Omar Sheikh, a London-born student-turned-kidnapper of the London School of Economics.
Daniel was accused of being a Mossad agent, he was forced to speak against Israel and America by his captors who then proceeded to slay him. This is stomach-turning footage. The site still posting Daniel's execution blames Israel as the root of all evil on Earth. That of course entitles brainwashed extremists to take leave of their humanity and act as monsters in order to glorify their evil god, whose name is not worth mentioning.
The Chicago Tribune has the story of the HBO production of Daniel Pearl's life and untimely death at the hands of jihadists.

One wonders, however, why other journalists, who are neither American nor Jewish, are being targetted by the same criminal groups (or their ilk), as EUreferendum so aptly reports.
