Pakistani Journalist Killed By Taliban In NW Pakistan, Beheading Failed

Oh boy...you gotta admit that the new peace deal signed by the Pakistani government with the Taliban in the Swat Valley area of NW Pakistan is off to a rousing start, huh?! A Pakistani journalist covering the peace accord events was killed by the Taliban and his beheading apparently was interrupted. Here's some of the details from CNN:

Attackers in a Taliban-controlled area of Pakistan shot and tried to behead a Pakistani journalist on Wednesday, according to his employer GEO TV.

The slain correspondent, Mosa Khankhel, had been covering the recent peace deal between the Pakistani government and Taliban militants in Swat Valley when he was killed, GEO TV managing director Azhar Abbas said.
"He is the first martyr of this peace deal," Abbas said, adding that he believes it is unlikely the deal will end the campaign of violence that has centered in Swat.
Khankhel was traveling in a caravan with Sufi Mohammed, who was leading the peace deal negotiations for the Taliban, when he went missing, Abbas said.
His body was found about an hour later. He had been shot three times and his killers had attempted to cut off his head.

These are the animals of the Taliban - these are the scourge of the world and yet, the same pigs that the government of Pakistan is signing deals with giving these minions even more power and even more land.

My prediction is that the Taliban will violate this peace agreement officially within 10 days - we have to understand that the Taliban kill people like you and me enjoy a good meal or a television show or a relaxing game of golf. It's what they DO. They kill. And no peace accord, no olive branch of sharia law, no promise to stand down will ever, EVER stop this horde from their goals of death and destruction.

Journalist killed in Taliban region

Khankhel was traveling in a caravan with Sufi Mohammed, who was leading the peace deal negotiations for the Taliban, when he went missing, Abbas said.
His body was found about an hour later. He had been shot three times and his killers had attempted to cut off his head.
Abbas called on Pakistan's government to fully investigate the killing of Khankhel, who was the network's correspondent based in North West Frontier Province as part of GEO TV's Peshawar bureau.
His death comes a day after Pakistan's government recognized the Taliban's interpretation of sharia, or Islamic law, in the entire Malakand Division, which includes Swat and its surrounding district.
The agreement marked a major concession by Pakistan in its attempt to hold off Taliban militants who have terrorized the region with beheadings, kidnappings, death threats, and the destruction of girls' schools.
The regional government in the Swat valley struck the deal to allow sharia law, in return the Taliban agreed to a 10-day cease fire.
The Taliban control of Swat -- which is about 100 miles northwest of Islamabad -- is the deepest advance by militants into Pakistan's settled areas, which are located outside its federally administered tribal region along the border with Afghanistan.
