This is rich. These people are unbelievable. They fail to recognize that the Jihadists don't care what their stance on the war is, they only care that they are Wahhabists and for that they will have their heads sawed off.

As I said yesterday, these flaming idiots are so steeped in their rhetoric, propoganda and ideology that they cannot even recognize who the real enemy is.
They will spouting this rubbish right up to the point that the Islamo-fascists start sawing their heads off. At that point, their new found realizations on who the enemy really is will be lost in the gurgling, blood curtling screams...too late to do them one bit of good.

It sure smells like a moonbat setup. If it is, I have a feeling that the MSM will ignore that fact and parade these four around as if they are heroes.

I've noticed that the MSM is not mentioning their anti-war affiliation, as far as I've seen. Its always just "a British, Canadian and American" etc. They wouldn't want to shatter the illusion that this is just some kind of nativist insurgency against "occupiers".

Perhaps Cindy can go over and speak to the reasonable Islamic gentlemen and convince them that what they are doing would be viewed badly by the peace movement.

Christian Peacemaker Teams, a group that has had activists in Iraq since October 2002, said it was saddened by the video of their workers. The workers, the group said, were working against the occupation of Iraq.
==============================================
I guess they should be considered insurgents.

Lets see.
Anglo Civilians going to Iraq and make themselves obvious hostage candidates.
Clearly these folks are Darwin award candidates and our respective governments should do nothing toward their release.
So much for personal responsibility.

That is the only reasonable conclusion, given that these same types of lefties have been working hand-in-hand with jihadis and share their objectives.

I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt until more is known about this situation. OTOH, they never should have been in Iraq in the first place.

Colonel David Hunt

Stated on fox news that these peace activists have now exposed our troops to more danger. We have to take our intelligence off of our work in Iraq and now focus on them.
Our intelligence in Iraq now has to be diverted towards finding their dumb ass while at the same time endangering the lives of our troops that have to find them. Peace activist is an oxymoron in this case.
To: Jeff Head

This is no kidnapping; it's staged. According to a caller on RUSH yesterday, the group had an "Adopt a Detainee" program a while back.
If so, it tends to lend credibility to your theory.

I agree with many here already, if these idjits want to place themselves in theater they get what they deserve.
Let the jihadists do what they may and let these peaceniks find out that peace is the furthest thing in the terrorist's mind.

Hey, didn't something similar happen, oh, about a year or two ago? In this one, once the wackos found out it wasn't pretty nor where they favored by the insurgents, they came running back to the good ole USA?
