Whoa!
Now that is an unexpected twist!
Jaw dropping. So who is the poor woman?
Wow
Ella, check this out.
Maybe he cannot believe she has been killed; but he surely knows she was abducted.
I think the group that did this realized by public sentiment - and by the fast denials of other terror leaders - that this abduction was a mistake.
Think Margaret is dead; and they do not want to claim responsibility.
Surely, she will not show up in Ireland. . .but I guess, stranger things have happened. I do wish her the benefit of my doubts.
Prayers for the murdered person and renewed prayers for the safety of Margaret Hassan.
Just wanted to give an update and say that MSNBC did just report this story. They added that although the body of this woman was not Hassan, British officials do believe Hassan is dead based on the video of the woman being shot.
Thank God for that, but God's Blessing on whoever that poor woman was! I hope there is word on Margaret Hassan soon.
Couldn't they have phrased that differently?
From: Britain: Body Isn't Kidnapped Aid Worker
Hassan was among nine foreign women hostages abducted in Iraq this year. Eight, including two Italian aid workers and Polish-born Teresa Borcz Khalifa, have been released.
Maybe her kidnapping was part of a semi-elaborate scheme to cover-up her ordered assassination.
Maybe "important" people don't want her to be alive to testify to the deprivations Iraqi children continued to suffer at the very time the UN's oil-for-food program was supposed to be helping them.
Her testimony could whip up some powerfully angry anti-UN feelings.
Maybe she was marked for gang-style execution, but someone realized her execution could be camouflaged among all the other kidnappings.
Did any important papers disappear from her office around the time she was kidnapped?
