the evidence they provide in the first article isnt exactley rock solid is it? i mean how difficult is it to procure organge boiler suits and white plastic chairs.. im pretty sure ive got some in my back garden (the chairs not the boiler suits), niether are rare nor can each of the items shown be shown to be linked to each other with any significant degree of certainty, theres no apparrant chain of evidnece.
As for the outfits and physicalities of the 'terrorists' last time i checked there were no fitness tests to joining a terrorist cell, and if we are talking al queda your race isnt the key to joining, only your religeon, and im pretty sure that islam welcomes everybody. so wether the people in the movie are Iraqi, Arab or whatever is a fairly moot point. but on the other hand, they dont look like seasoned killers capable of performing a butchery as suggested (but it takes all sorts doesnt it). so again these issues prove nothing either way.
As for blood spray. I havent seen the video myself, nor am i a doctor but if you were to severe someones main artiery there would be an amount of spray, how much, and how visible etc would obviously depend on other factors, such as heart rate at the time, levels of hormone and adreneline, general health of the person and other bloodloss incurred realitley immeadiatley before the artery is opened.
so in my opinion the articles dont really prove if the video is fake, however the video must not be as clear as first suggested, so maybe. But lets be hoenst guys, what can a discussion about its authenticity achieve, and what must the discussion be doing to this guys friends and family. A family who are trying to come to terms with losing someone, to have suggestion made that he may have died differently, or not even be dead at all, as one of the articles certainly intimates.
anyway, two penneth thrown in,

There are some oddities about it but real life is not quite like ER with blood spurting EVERYWHERE.
