Iraqi newspaper Al Raqeeb displays pictures April 10, 2004 of two men it said the German Embassy in Baghdad had confirmed went missing on April 7 on a road near the volatile Sunni town of Falluja. More foreigners were reported missing or seized as hostages in Iraq after a spate of kidnappings, which included three Japanese civilians under threat of being killed Sunday. Two German security officials were reported missing while traveling from Jordan to Baghdad, the German Foreign Ministry said.

Note...

"The mujahideen, many of them grandfathers, shopkeepers, young men and even boys..."

"The highway out of Fallujah was filled with fleeing families. The elderly, children and pregnant women clung to ancient cars and battered lorries, piled high with belongings."

Yo! Iraqi Warrior!

Stop now and kiss your mother 'hello' in the morning.

Stay, and die.

It's really pretty simple.

Remember in the early days of the war when our soldiers were captured. Some were later released but some were killed. Remember, some of those killed showed signs of their private parts 'being exposed'.

These barbarians have a 'thing' about that. They get some kind of 'high' out of exposing dead bodies.

George Bush keeps telling us these guys "hate freedom" and they "hate democracy".

The talking heads on TV keep telling us it's all about power and money, and the Iraqis simply have no feeling one way or the other about freedom or democracy.

Then these guys ambush some German embassy people and tell their story to a Brit reporter, and what is that story ~ that they "hate the ideas".

Is it possible "W" is correct and all the talking heads are wrong?

"We do not want their capitalism, we do not want communism. We have our own ideas about how we want our country to be run in a Muslim way. We support the Shia leader Muqtada Sadr, not because of his ideas; they are not good or bad. We are supporting him with money, weapons and men because he is against the Americans."

What are their ideas?

How do they propose to promote them?

If they win, it's a terrible civil war between them and their former allies; surely they realize this?

Kidnapped Briton freed in Iraq

www.chinaview.cn 2004-04-12 05:21:12

LONDON, April 11 (Xinhuanet) -- A British civilian contractor kidnapped in Iraq has been released after six days of captivity, the British Foreign Office said on Sunday.

"We can confirm Mr Teeley has been released and is safe and well with coalition forces," a spokesman for the ministry told reporters.

Gary Teeley, a 37-year-old father-of-five, disappeared on Monday in the southern Iraqi city of Nasiriya, where he was thought to be working.

According to the Foreign Office, Teeley is based in the Middle East as a consultant for a laundry company.

Earlier reports quoted Qatar's Al-Jazeera satellite channel as reporting that Teeley was freed "with the help of Arab tribes in the region" and had been moved to a military base after being released and turned over to coalition authorities.

It was not clear who had kidnapped Teeley or whether a deal hadbeen struck with hostage-takers to secure his release.

Concern is mounting for three Japanese civilians who were captured in Iraq after the news of Teeley's release.

The Japanese are still being held hostage by guerrillas who have reportedly threatened to kill them if Japanese forces are notwithdrawn from Iraq.

Meanwhile, an American security contractor and several other contractors whose nationalities are not known are also reportedly either in the hands of guerrillas or missing.
