Today, Indian forces killed the terrorist responsible for the kidnapping and murder of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl. It has been 23 years since Pearl was taken hostage just four months after the September 11 attacks and brutally murdered in Pakistan on February 1, 2002. As part of their propaganda, Pearl was forced to make a statement before his death. These were some of his now-famous final words: “My name is Daniel Pearl. My father is Jewish, my mother is Jewish, and I am a Jew.” May his memory be a blessing.
