Didn't see that, I just read the article in the NYT. The only video I saw was of people dragging the bodies of U.S. troops through the streets, little kids holding AK-47s cheering and yelling "Allah Akbar" (God is great), the Iraqis cutting off the soldiers' heads while again yelling "Allah Akbar," and proceeding to flay open the chests of the soldiers. Needless to say, I never watched another video.

I didn't even want to go near the videos of the insurgents cutting off the heads of various contractors, journalists, and aid workers. I did, however, watch some video clips from Al Jazeera showing some "scholars intelligently discussing" whether it was right or wrong to kill such non-combatants. As you might expect, the consensus was (a) it was sad, but okay because these people were part of an occupying force, and (b) America is bad and the root of all evil.
