Al-Qaeda Linked Group Posts Video Of U.S. Soldiers

An al-Qaeda-Linked Group Posted a Web video Saturday purporting to show the bodies of two American soldiers being dragged behind a truck, then set on fire in apparent retaliation for the rape-slaying of a young Iraqi woman by U.S. troops from the same unit.

The Mujahedeen Shura Council—an umbrella organization of insurgent groups, including al-Qaeda in Iraq—posted another video in June showing the soldiers’ mutilated bodies, and claiming it killed them. It was not clear whether the video posted Saturday was a continuation of that footage, or why it was released.

The video showed masked men dragging the corpses, first by hand, then behind a truck, beheading one of them and then setting them on fire.
