VIDEO: DEATH TO PEACE ACTIVISTS IF DEMANDS NOT MET
Kidnappers Threaten to Kill Iraq Activists
Dec 02 3:52 PM US/Eastern
BAGHDAD, Iraq - Al-Jazeera television broadcast a videotape Friday in which kidnappers of four Christian peace activists threatened to kill their hostages unless all prisoners in U.S. and Iraqi detention centers are released. The kidnappers gave the two governments until Dec. 8 to meet their demands, Al-Jazeera quoted a statement delivered with the tape as saying.
The tape showed what the broadcaster said were two Canadian hostages. An American and a Briton are also being held. All four appeared frightened.
The Canadians were shown eating from plates of what appeared to be Arabic sweets. In a second clip, the British and American hostages were shown to talking to the camera but no audio was transmitted.
The two were calling on the U.S. and British governments to withdraw from Iraq, Al-Jazeera reported, quoting a statement from the kidnappers, who earlier identified themselves as the Swords of Righteousness Brigade
Thank you for serving. Yours jibes with stories I've heard from other pals. Perfectly. There were even news reports (not generally widespread, tho) about these "criminals" in Iraq. And the bounty on US Mil heads.
Soldiers from 1st Squadron, 71st Cavalry, 1st Brigade Combat Team, 10th Mountain Division, found two Iraqi civilians bound and gagged in the trunk of a white sedan. The two individuals, employed by an American contractor, claimed they had been taken hostage and were to be murdered.
The car's driver and a passenger had false Iraqi police badges and were carrying pistols. They were detained. In the north-central region of Iraq, Iraqi and U.S. forces detained 18 terrorists on Dec. 1.
I do. You go get them and I will warm up the grill
[Betcha they turn them loose in the name of Islam.]
I assume they are ALL going to be turned loose, including the German woman. Bush doesn't care a fig and the Baathists/Islamists/Iranians know it. So they must all go free so they can say "no thanks to Bush" for his "cold-hearted" non-reaction to the whole circus.
The German woman might be killed if the German press were poised to blame Merkel for that. The German press is starting to draw their knives on Merkel after pretending to be proud of the first female chancellor last week.
It is my dream that one day the USA will elect a president who:
A. Recognizes the enemy
B. Is not afraid to call the enemy by their true name
C. Will kill the enemy without hesitation
I agree that "delicious" may be Un Judeo-Christian. I would remind you and everyone that these so-called peace activists regularly trash our troops and the American evil imperial ambitions in a way that clearly gives aid and comfort to the enemy. The irony is justified.
If they so much as endanger one American soldier's life, they are getting what they deserve.
I think that Florida took care of their shad problem by switching to electronic machines. No more hanging shads etc.
That is perhaps, the best explanation of the war on terror that I have seen.</p>
They are mostly Quakers, Mennonites, and Church of the Brethren.
Given the choice of been treated like the detainees at Abu Ghraib or having their heads slowly sawed off on Camera... hmm, wonder what they'd choose...
Maybe they will sharpen the knife as an act of mercy before sawing off the heads of these idiots. Will they be contenders for this years Darwin awards?
irony would have them rescued by an israeli air stike.
that would be a delicious irony...

[Oh, I see how someone could take that wrong....he did not wish for someone to die at all. IT IS IRONIC THOUGH..that the four (4) leftist/commies(NOT CHRISTIANS) that blame all the problems in Iraq on Bush and Blair, and demand the return to the lawful ruler, S. Hussein, are finding a "Religion of Peace" sharp-ass knife at their throat.]
Agreed. [The NOT CHRISTIANS is added by me.]
Why doesn't Congress investigate the inhumane treatment of these po prisoners and demand their Geneva Convention rights as well as UN provided American taxpayer subsidized trial lawyers? (sarcasm)
How can anyone really be that stupid? How many innocent men, women and children do these scum have to kill before the left finally thinks, "maybe these guys aren't so great."
Peace, of course!
