Video Purports to Show Dragging of ( US )Pilot
CAIRO, Egypt - A poor-quality video posted on the Internet Wednesday in the name of an extremist group claimed to show Iraqi insurgents dragging the burning body of a U.S. pilot on the ground after the crash of an Apache helicopter.

The U.S. military said it could not confirm the authenticity of the video.

The video, posted by a group calling itself the Shura Council of Mujahedeen, claimed that its military wing shot down the craft, which the U.S. military said went down Saturday.

The footage in the video, which was e-mailed to reporters, was blurry but the helicopter could be clearly seen. It was not clear if the man being dragged in the video was wearing a U.S. military uniform.

8. HEY POT (Cry baby Lt. Col. Jonathan Withington) MEET KETTLE
"We are outraged that anyone would create and publish such a despicable video for public exposure," U.S. military spokesman Lt. Col. Jonathan Withington said

Cry on Baby Jonathan Withington you are supporting WAR CRIMINALS







Nov. 5, 2003. Detainee died during an interrogation by OGA, and was placed in the shower area of tier 1, hard site. The body bag was opened so CPL GRANER and SPC HARMON could take pictures of the detainee. No NDRS or ISN numbers, as he was never processed in the system.

10. Violence is redemptive, you know
And the only way to end violence and restore community among peoples and nations is through more violence. Holy, sweet, redemptive violence. By wiping some Iraqi town off the map, we will show the survivors just how seriously we take life, liberty and justice, whether they had anything to do with this video or not. Just so they don't get any ideas, you know.
