“I decapitated with my blessed right hand the head of the American Jew, Daniel Pearl, in the city of Karachi,” Mohammed said, according to a Pentagon transcript released nearly four years ago. “For those who would like to confirm, there are pictures of me on the Internet holding his head.” – Khalid Sheikh Mohammed.
According to The Pearl Project report, as many as 14 of the radical Muslims involved in abducting and executing Pearl in 2002 have never been tried and punished for their heinous crime.
“I decapitated with my blessed right hand the head of the American Jew, Daniel Pearl, in the city of Karachi,” Mohammed said, according to a Pentagon transcript released nearly four years ago. “For those who would like to confirm, there are pictures of me on the Internet holding his head.”
The report describes how FBI and CIA agents used the forensic technique of vein-matching to compare the hand of the executioner with a photo of al-Qaeda’s number three commander’s hand.
According to the FBI’s report, Mohammed told interrogators that an al-Qaeda commander suggested he take over custody of Pearl from the original abductors.
Daniel Pearl was captured while traveling to meet a man he was told was a radical imam with information on the terrorist organization responsible for the attacks on the World Trade Center in New York and the Pentagon building in Washington, DC. It’s believes that more than two dozen Islamic terrorists were involved in Pearl’s kidnapping and death.
At least three different radical Islamic groups were involved in the plot, including terrorists led by the British-Pakistani “Sheikh Omar” and a gang of terrorists led by Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, according to the report.
The three-year Pearl Project investigation was conducted by faculty members and journalism students at Georgetown University in Washington. It was released yesterday by the Center for Public Integrity.

Orly. You are having problems with you website. The pages keep loading as blank.
This seems odd. Perhaps you should go to Pakistan to investigate this yourself?

Orly:…hmmm, blank pages? That’s a new one! I know that at times, it won’t scroll or I can’t stay on the site, but blank pages…? It sounds like someone might be “hiding” the content????
Since Pearl was Jewish…and Orly is too…that’s a bad idea!
