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
"stupid is as stupid does"
I have to agree. If you throw yourself in front of a speeding truck, you pretty much deserve what you get.
Bill Clinton, is that you?
"That's what that Italian b***h did. The only thing that went wrong for us it that our soldiers missed her and hit an Italian special services guy."
Oh my God. What is wrong with you?

Hey, wasn't that the centerfold in this month's PlaySHAD?
"Did he say, "Blessed are the cheesemakers?""
"What's so special about the cheesemakers?"
Sorry, couldn't resist.
Well, there seems to be no end to idiots like these.
I'm sure they're all lining up to "make a statement".
did you say, an EX-leper??
ocelot spleens, wren's livers, oh i don't want any of that roman rubbish.
Yuk it up, Buddy! Terrorists think it's great when the "right" people die, too...
what the peace activists need are more sandals on the ground!
cheesemakers? well, it's not meant to be taken literally. he's talking about the makers of all dairy products...
with path! a path!
It was better said by Deep Purple in 1968 on the album "Shades of Deep Purple".
Or even better by Procul Harem in "A Whiter Shad of Pale."
Oh, I am.
Believe me, I am.
I love that movie :)
I actually found the book (screenplay) at a used book store and carry it with me when I travel. Definitely one of the most intelligent comedies I've ever seen.
I wonder if their captors flushed their Bibles down the toilet (not likely since most Muslim countries don't have flush toilets).
Katrina landed a tree on my shad next to my house. Nobody cares about that!
upon occasion I have thought it the best movie ever made.
good to meet a fellow 'haggler'. What? won't haggle?
Like biteing the hand that feeds them.
