Marine Beheaded?

The captive Marine is claimed to have been beheaded. If true, this could be the worst mistake the rebels have ever made. Marines really don’t take well to the deaths of their own. I am reminded of the tale of a pair in one of the Banana Wars in the early 20th century (Nicaragua, perhaps?) who walked into the enemy camp disguised only in ponchos, shot the enemy leader dead and cut out his heart—all to avenge their captain. The (possible) murderers of this Marine stated, Pull your military and you'll be safe; it’s their safety they should be concerned about.
