The hostages on Al-Jazeera (AP/APTN)
An attempt to make Japan behave like Spain. From This Is London:
An Iraqi group has kidnapped three Japanese hostages, including one woman, and promised to burn them alive if Japan does not withdraw its forces from Iraq.Al Jazeera television screened a video today showing three Japanese dressed in civilian clothes. They are believed to be two journalists and an aid worker
The television said a statement by the hitherto unknown Iraqi group called Saraya al-Mujahideen had given Japan three days from the airing of the video to withdraw its troops from Iraq before it killed the hostages.
The statement said: "Three of your sons have fallen into our hands. We offer you two choices: either pull out your forces, or we will burn them alive. We give you three days starting the day this tape is broadcast."
The hostages were shown wearing civilians clothes. Passports shown on the video gave the woman's name as Takato Nahoko and the two men as Noriaki Imai and Soichiro Koriyama. At least one of them had a press identification card.
Earlier on Thursday, Japan vowed to make no hasty decisions about its 550 non-combat troops in the southern city of Samawa.
Reports are also claiming that seven South Koreans have also been taken hostage in Iraq.
UPDATE: The Japanese didn't give in, and maybe the terrorists are going to: "Iraqi group says will release Japanese." (Thanks to Nicolei.)
Everyday in everyway, Islam demonstrates to the rest of the world what a 'peaceful' religion it is. Last week it was public lynchings and corpse mutilations, this week it’s threats to burn men and women alive. What’s it going to be next week? Mass child rape on camera?
Muslims seem to get a free pass, not only from their cult teachings but from the rest of the world as well, to behave in any way they damn well please.
It appears that nothing they say or do is beyond the pale for the rest of the world. In fact the rest of the world has to permanently walk on egg shells to avoid ‘humiliating’ the follows of allah.
The Saraya al-Mujahideen had given Japan three days from the airing of the video to withdraw its troops from Iraq before it killed the hostages.
Islam at its best again... Man you Islamists have got to stop killing everything in sight.
Take your immans captive until they tell you the truth - Islam is deadly deception.
Adopt the policy that for every hostage they kill 10 mosques will be destroyed.
They don't play by the Geneva Convention.....so neither should we.
lol....try to demoniazing islam....power is knoledge...dear crusaders...our actions will speak the truth in the future...INSHALLAH..!!
The imagery of those sweet innocent Asian faces being brutalized will do more to change opinions in the dar-al-harb than any oratory from our benighted elite. Can you imagine how this will play in china, japan and mongolia? Asian people are normally quiet, conservative with an admirable modesty, who've also tried to stay reasonably objective in these matters. This will infuriate their sense of honor, its cowardliness may cause a response from the east that will suprise many.
Ihshallah........Before you try to go crushing crusaders, you may want to learn basic spelling....you ignorant piece of camel shit.
The South Koreans have been freed and Japan has responded by saying they won't be leaving.
TO: "Crushtheblahblahblah" you said :"power is knoledge". The proper speling is "Knowledge", not "knoledge" and the correct phrasing is "Knowledge is power.". You sand monkeys are so funny!
Dear "crush crusaders" (lol)
Please..with its demonic source, its demonic history and its demonic content, we really dont have to "try" to demonize Islam, Its doing quite a good job by itself, incase you hadn't noticed.
And please, spare me the "Inshallah" nonsense - I've worked with Muslims long enough to realise that phrase is just a huge cop out clause.
Q. "Will you be coming to work on monday?"
A. "Oh yes..."Inshallah"
A.Interpretation; "more than likely not, and on tuesday I'll just say it wasn't Gods will"
Q."Can you explain to me how Islam is a 'religion of peace' yet spues out comments as in Sura 9:5, 29, 8:39, 4:47 etc etc..."
A. "Oh yes..but later.."inshallah"
A.interpretation: "ahhh! the infidels are getting wise to our 'inspired' quest for world wide domination through absolute merciless force, I'll just never come back to him about it, If he asks, I'll just say it wasn't Gods will."
Post soon "Crush crusader"...InshYahweh...

I wonder if the Japaneese military still practice the code of bushido?
5000 screaming simuri Japs bent on revenge if they burn those Jap civilians would be welcome.
The Asians are honorable folk and I don't imagine Japan taking this lightly.
The Muslims look like they're hell bent on pissing everyone off. This just makes more allies for us, and exposes the lies of "peaceful" Islam.
We'llcrushetcetc...Read something about "Lepanto"!!! You will love it!!! We are going to do it again! With the same result...Inshallah!
shawn:I wonder if the Japaneese military still practice the code of bushido?

Hood Jihadi: First of all, you spelled Japanese wrong you illiterate ham tossing infidel!
Secondly, I am glad the Iraqis finally understand your racist intensions for this illegal war on their country. The "Judeo-Peterists" did not want Saddam, but a lame excuse to murder Muslims.
The white man is never happy without subjugating people of colour, neither is their Jew masters happy unless they are engaged in some sort of mass cultural or nation destruction program.
I feel sorry for the "shit-oists", but are you guys not killing and burning Muslims for fun now? It’s about time the stupid Asian countries woke up to the reality and stopped playing to the US lyrics about "democracy".
I don't think you will be feeling "hard man" if you were now their captives? Imagine what it must feel like for a whole nation like Iraq to be captive to Israel. Wouldn't you kill any person sent from the Zionist dominated Washington?
Hey Hood and Crush,
Islam is playing right in to the hands of the civilized world and you are too ignorant to even realize that...(Actually Why I am even trying to clue you ignoramouses in escapes me, but here goes....)
Were it not for 9/11 America would have had absolutely no justification for shutting down the Taliban and El Queada in Afghanistan and reorganizing it as a potential member of the Civilized World. Nor would we have ever been able to oust Hussien.
Now you're Burning and playing with the charred corpses of our civilians, attacking Spain, kidnapping Japanese and Threatening London...Do you really think these countries will excersize more restraint than America has? Think again. Could you be more stupid??
I am not pleased with any acts of agression by you camel cuddling, sand jockeys..But if that is what has to happen to get you people "educated" on civility or elimanated from the globe...So be it...
I, for one, say Loudly BRING IT Cowards...Lets Get this on and get it decided...
Susan:I, for one, say Loudly BRING IT Cowards...Lets Get this on and get it decided...
Hood Jihadi: Talking of cowards, ever thought of why you never picked on somebody of you own size instead of Iraqi children and third world countries?
If you want to do your bit for 9/11, just don't buy oil from ME. After all, you have "freedom".
oooh ya R warrior Susie!
Hood explain to me how Iraq is captive to Israel. And another point. We don't need to buy your oil. We have plenty of other methods to create energy. The fact is you need our oil money to survive. And your right we are free!!
To Hood:
The War may be illegal, but the winner is always legal. We, the winners, will politely issue a decree, legalising it, over a cup of tea and crackers. Just for the beauty of it, ofcourse. Then, whilst listening Emperor Waltz (by Strauss by the way) we'll play some pocker with your oilfields. Ofcourse, our Sons and Daughters will want to play, so we'll just bequeath them our Steel Pencils and your maps, and encourage them to develop their drawing skills, redrawing your borders. A minor reshuffle, lets say...
Ofcourse, we apologize for picking on a third world country... but hell, thats not our fault is it, now?
You need assistance, we'll provide it, whether you want it or not. Can't just leave jolly good resources waste away whilst you smoke pot eat sheishkebab and bow for hours (or centuries, should I say?).
Progress jokey gentlemen, progress. Thats why we're here, and you're down there.

Hood (2) said "ever thought of why you never picked on somebody of you own size instead of Iraqi children and third world countries?" LOL! Ever stop to think that the ME wouldn't have to be third world countries if the oil rich princes didn't steal their peoples money and build palaces, chase whores, buy fleets of sports cars, etc.? As for the children where was your self righteous indignation and moral outrage when Saddam was shooting babies and their mothers? Or when he was gassing Kurdish women with babes in their arms? Or when Idi Amin was eating his enemies? But we musn't critisize Muslims right? Like something that crawls out from under a rock you hate to have the light of day see your deeds. If a youth (like Saddam's nephew) takes up arms against us and refuses to lay them down when given the chance, the little fool deserves to die. It is commonly called culling the herd. Improves breeding stock by getting rid of animals that aren't fit to survive. Every time you post you make our case for us that your religion is tailor made for idiots. Mohammed (Pigs Be Upon Him) is no prophet. There is no prophecy in the Koran. I defy you to show us any. You aren't man enough to take up the challenge. You will duck it and run like the cowardly dog you are. You are like the apes in the jungle that see man passing by and scream and throw things at him. But we understand. You are an ape. It's what you do.
The majority of Japanese were strongly opposed to the government sending people to Iraq in the first place, and can be expected to pressure the government to honour the demands of the hostage holders. I will not be surprised if Japan joins the Spanish in withdrawing from the Coalition. It is of no significance militarily, but is very important in the propaganda war, which the West is losing badly.
Hoodie #2 and Crushie - Burning people alive, slitting their throats? By their actions they reveal their true natures.
Speak sharply to the oil billionaires that keep the money for themselves rather than creating a better life for the people in their countries.
One of the Five Pillars of Islam is charity for the poor. Does mean only giving a pittance to poor widows and orphans. In the West we also have charities, and a saying - "Charity begins at home." That means help your own community first. They are responsible for you. If your communities are not doing well, the fault is at their doorsteps. Go get them and convince them to provide for your people.
Spartacus,
You are dead center on the subject of Lepanto.
For anyone online tonight who wants a real treat, check out The Last Crusader, Isabella of Spain by William Thomas Walsh. I think you can still get a copy from TAN books. This awesome book describes how Isabella and Ferdinand kicked the Moors(Moslems) out of Spain in the 15th century. We can do this again.
Also, Hal, 10 mosques to 1 hostage seems like a deal to me. Can we start with the ones in Northern Virginia?
I say send the Kurdish persmerga into the holy city of Najaf where al-Sadr is holed up. The Kurds are Sunnis, they love us and are a killing machine. This way the holy city won't be desecrated by our infidel feet, very sensative of us.
Looks like Hood Homodi is now a spelling teacher. Unfortunately, he's still a brainwashed orphan, whose parents (per his own posting) "escaped" the United States.
Hoodjob, you're doing, and saying nothing to convince anyone that Islam is anything more than a wreck, and a cult of violence. You disgrace your own Islam with your warped views. You really think that you can continue to sit here in the US and bash the nation in support of the street rats that threaten free society?
If you hate it here, and you hate us, grab an illegal alien and together you can swim on outta here. You have about 12 million of them to pick from. Take one and go.
It is interesting to note that the "site" connection for > doesn't work. Therefore to > I say: If I ever have the misfortune or perhaps chance to meet you get ready for a pig fat bath. You understand the promise even if most western readers don't. I can be religiously less civilized than you may ever imagine you spawn of Satan [sic Allah]

After all is said, it is Islam that has brought this on themselves. Somewhere there is a sad weakness in the foundation of Islamic teachings. Who is it that speaks for the so-called religion of peace? America did not want to be there, nor did any other country wish to deal with such a rabid and hateful people. Is there not but one leader,Sheike,Imam,Cleric that speaks out loud against these Jihadists. We should be hearing from CAIR in the strongest way that they condem these evil aggressors who have hijacked their religion. The free world has been given little choice but to remove these threats from world wherever they maybe. Now they are attacking all other religions as well as other ethnic groups. They have shown time, and time again that they do not respect anyone who is not of there religion. They have struck out against all others --Zionists, buddhists,Confucious,Catholics,Christians,-- It`s as if we have the bad child among us, that we are forced to deal with. What you shall sew you shall reap! Shall a leader come forth that brings peace among us , and from where will he come?
The problem is not "radical Islam". The problem is not "Muslim insurgents", "Islamic terrorists", or any of the bovine fecal matter the media is trying to fill us with. The problem is Islam. The problem is Islam. The only time Muslims stop waging jihad against each other is when they stop to kill us. Why aren't the so called "moderate Muslims" in this nation and others protesting the terrorist actions of their brothers in Iraq? Their silence is tacit approval of these crimes. They will not openly protest because they secretly support terrorism. Non-Muslim Americans had better start watching their backs. I say again: the problem is Islam. No more Islam, no more problem.
