On August, 2012, I did a post on a WND report that the radical Muslim group Muslim Brotherhood (MB) executing Christians and opponents of Egypt's new MB president, Muhammad Morsi, by crucifying them to death.
Immediately after I published that post, comments appeared on FOTM dismissing the WND report -- the sources of which were Arabic TV and print sources from the Middle East! -- and hinting that the Jews (Israel) concocted the story. The skeptics demanded to see visual evidence of photos or videos of the crucifixion.
Well, we now have the visual evidence, from Yemen. WARNING: It's graphic.
Michael Carl reports for WND, Aug. 29, 2012:
There's shocking new evidence from the Middle East of crucifixion by Muslims, this time of a "spy" in Yemen who allegedly was accused of U.S. sympathies.
WND recently confirmed a Sky News Arabia report of the crucifixion of dissidents in Egypt.
According to a report by Lebanon Today translated into English, the Yemeni jihadist group Ansar al-Shariah took control of the Azzan area of Yemen and imposed Islamic law, or Shariah. In the process, the group crucified three men, accusing them of being agents for the U.S. The executions reportedly took place several months ago.
Former PLO operative turned terrorism analyst Walid Shoebat says the inscription in the photo of one of the victims reads, "He was crucified for three days in accordance to Shariah." Shoebat says Lebanon Today reported the group carried out the Shariah-prescribed penalties, explaining the multiple executions were retribution for passing information to U.S. forces to carry out attacks by pilot-less drones.
According to Shoebat's translation, the report said:
"One they nicknamed 'Captain' was executed by crucifixion for three days at the entrance to the city of Jaar in the Abyan province, to be viewed by passersby entering and leaving the city. Two Saudis and a Yemeni were also executed by the sword at dawn at the hands of Ansar al-Shariah, and [the terrorists] absolved [a] fourth defendant from execution for his young age. A leader in Ansar al-Islam claimed that these who were executed belong to the province of Marib, [and were executied] for planting trackers on cars that belong to al-Qaida leaders to be targeted by the drones."
According to Shoebat, the article said an analyst in the region claimed the crucifixions are "something new." The report said:
"One researcher, Saeed Obaid Elaf, said that, 'The incidents of these executions never occurred previously in Yemen but follows the sequence of events which occurred previously in Afghanistan and Iraq [where] … Islam is the religion of the state. In Iraq these [terrorists] see Iraq as the Islamic State of Iraq. 'In Afghanistan, the ones who receive this type of executions are those who are considered spies. But in Yemen this is the first time we have seen such phenomenon, which has become a natural thing now because al-Qaida now exercises the powers of the state and it's natural that it carries out such executions."
Besides the image of the Yemeni brutality (see below), video has been posted online of the punishment.
The caption to the video explained it was a "spy who was executed by extremists for placing sensors in militant's cars to direct U.S. attacks on them. This occurred during the recent Yemeni revolution to oust the long serving president, when extremists took advantage of the lapse in security as the former president diverted his attention to fighting the revolution instead of extremists."
Shoebat said his sources confirmed there had been eight executions about the same time, including three by crucifixion and another five by beheading.
