""Please, Arroyo, withdraw your forces from Iraq," dela Cruz pleaded on the new video broadcast on Al-Jazeera, referring to Philippines President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. His voice was inaudible, but an announcer read an Arabic translation of his words. "
his voice was inaudible. this leads me to think he was tortuted into saying this. had they simply scared him and he gave in, he would have been more frantic.
they are tearing people apart to make them say words that the people would not believe under normal circumstances. this is a vile method, and it MUST NOT be given in to. it gives them an edge on the weaker nations of the world, but hopefully the Filipinos know better. hopfully they realize, this man either dies in their hands now, or his family tree gets it's throats slit after the WOT fails.
i know it sounds heartless to recognize the victim in a minimalist way, but the terrorists see him only as a tool. they are not only willing, but adept at making a single life turn a war simply because they know our value of it (while they themselves hold no value of it)
my prayers to the victim and his family and people. my prayers also to our boys taking out the victim's catpors.
The enemy is just as much al Jezeera. (and anyone else who accepts these videos). This is the kind of crap that Bush needs to demand of the Saudis to STOP. They control alJazeera. If the terrorists didn't have an outlet for showing their videos, these brutal displays would cease.
All countries should announce that they will no longer air them or any part of them. This isn't rocket science.
Stop Giving The Terrorists What They Want.
STOP BEING TOOLS Of The TERRORISTS
