Al Jazeera has video of Toulouse jihadi's rampage, but won't air it

In a statement on its English-language Web site, Al Jazeera, based in Qatar, said it “will not air video of French shootings” because the video “did not add any information that was not already in public domain. It also did not meet the television station’s code of ethics for broadcast.”…

Asked in a telephone interview if the footage was authentic, Mr. Zied replied: “Unfortunately, yes. It was confirmed by the police on Monday.”

He said the footage of the murders is combined with music, religious chants and the reading of Koranic verses. “You hear the gunshots and the cries of the victims,” he said.

Mr. Merah or an accomplice apparently sent the video to Al Jazeera’s Paris bureau on a USB computer key. It was accompanied by an unsigned letter in capital letters written in “sometimes bad French” and purporting to be from Al Qaeda, Mr. Zied said.
