BAGHDAD, Iraq - An Indiana man, scared and clutching his passport to his chest, was shown at gunpoint on a videotape aired by Al-Jazeera television Wednesday, two days after he was kidnapped from a water treatment plant near Baghdad. The station said he pleaded for his life and urged U.S. troops to withdraw from Iraq.

The fierce and brave Muslim armies are at it again. Unable to defeat anybody on the field of battle, they have their women capture individual civilians. It is easy to see why God does not smile on them.

Al-Jazeera television aka Jihadi-TV. They should shoot all their camera men b/c they are always around when bad things happen. I can't see it as a coincidence any more. They have embedded reporters all right..

Thank you to you and Knute for the info. I must have missed Laporte in the article.

Exactly. I am convinced that Al-Jihadi TV is nothing but a mouthpiece for Islamic terrorists. They are 100% complicit with the Jihadi terrorists (satan worshippers). This is not freedom of the press, it's direct action against the US interests.

Yeah, on al-Jazeera, Muslim terrorist central. They've aired actual beheadings in the past, but then they've aired the 'captured' G.I. doll hoax also. Unfortunately, this poor man talks and is real.
You have to understand, our sense of honor is not theirs'. To televise a kidnapped Muslim with an obvious death threat over him would bring down the whole world's anger, but if Muslims do it, it's just business as usual for the religion of peace. They have no shame as we know it, and they know how to play our media like the violin they never could invent.

I don't understand why these workers, and others do not have "micro chips" to be able to trace where they are.
To: FierceKulak
I pray for this man and his family. He better be right with the Lord because his time is short.

Meanwhile, the UN is blathering about how Islam needs to be defended from defamation. This is the worst defamation possible, to be a cult of evil and malice.

RIGHT! I believe they are trying to get Al-jehadi on air in canuckastan right now. Funny thing is, they won't allow FOX on air. Go figure. IIRC, Rumsfield brought up al-jehadi in a press interview. Something about how they were always on site prior to something bad happening to our troops(IED). They know, and that makes them the enemy as far as I am concerned. Any muzzies/muzzie sympathizers wanna challenge me on it?
...Are those crickets I hear??

but if Muslims do it, it's just business as usual for the religion of peace. Exactly. It's obviously cool with our press, too, because they never seem to get upset when an American is beheaded. But "abuse" a Muslim terrorist by having a woman put a leash on him, and all hell breaks loose.
