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

Someone about to die is Delicious?

No, I believe he wrote that the irony is delicious.

It is ironic, but not to be celebrated. I hope the airheads are freed unharmed.

DO NONE OF YOU CARE ABOUT THE POOR SHAD?!?

In the words of Cream:

I'm so shad
I'm so shad
I'm shad
I'm shad
I'm shad.

"Well, ALRIGHT then."

Pukin Dog, thanks for your vote of confidence! However, be warned - the rest of the posters claiming to truly care for the SHAD, like yourself, are at best (forgive me for the French that's about to ensue..) POSEURS!

I'm ashamed you're my countryman, and I'm ashamed that you're darkening this forum and calling yourself a freeper. By your statements, you're just human filth.

Stupid peace activists? how dare you. After getting together, smoking a considerable amount of dope and strategizing, they formed a plan that was to their liking, they will save the world and live in happiness. they will put an end to this this unjust illegal war.

Sadly there was a small glitch

They're Christian peace activists so they'll in all liklihood be killed no matter what. I don't think anything short of a rescue is going to help them.

Naivete and stupidity should not be a death sentence.

I disagree.

Repeated naivete and stupidity should be punishable by death. Especially when it comes to war and peace.

People who refuse to learn from the lessons of history have no business affecting other people's lives.

I haven't time to deal with your demands. I'm busy thinking about improved MOABS.

The ideal outcome: Delta operators break in just as the taping starts, with the first knife barely applied to the first peacenik throat. The Deltas kill the terrorists in a hurricane of gunfire right in front of the intended beheading victims. The camera, its operator dead of a .45 bullet in what passes for his brain, continues to roll. A masked Delta holsters his pistol, looks at the camera and gives it the finger, declaring "up yours, Ramsey Clark." Fade to black.

So, to sum up, this is Bush's fault as well.

I, for one, am glad we have such a diabolically clever President. Kind of puts paid to all those Democratic claims about how limited his intelligence is, doesn't it?

BWAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Well what are we to do Ken?

Once the Bass have converted all the Shad (that they don't kill) to Radical Islam, then they will go after the Catfish.

The Bass will receive covert aid from the Bluegill and Crappie along the border, just because the Catfish eat their young.

I tell you the Bass must be stopped!

This is the same thing that happened to the young Jewish man who left the United States to go to Iraq and meet up with Al Quaeda and try to tell them Americans are peaceful and he wanted to mediate the peace. His father said his decapitation was Bushes' fault,...I cannot remember his name....Anyway, they killed him. Cut his head slap off.

These muslims are not on the same thinking plane as westerners. These poor generation X hippies, I fear, have sealed their doom. They were naive and did not understand their enemy. It reminded me of the scene in "Die Hard" when the preppy, cocaine sniffing punk, tried to negotiate a deal with Hanns and "Roy". John McClain knew the nature of the enemy. The negotiator got his brains blown out.

Know thine enemy.

My Money says that the activists are in cahoots with the kidnappers and they are going to milk this for all it's worth.
