Gunmen Seize Americans, Briton in Iraq

From AP

A team of kidnappers grabbed two Americans and a Briton in a dawn raid on their home on a leafy Baghdad street Thursday — a bold abduction that underlines the increasing danger for foreigners in the embattled capital as violence soars ahead of national elections planned for early next year.

This story underscores the bravery & courage of any civilized human being (soldier or civilian), aiding Iraqi's. Unlike the "holy soldiers", the "freedom fighters", the JIHADISTS, who take women and school children, and now these gutsy men, probably from their beds while sleeping. Cowards.

It makes me shudder to think how these hostages are being treated, with the stories of Beslan at the forefront of my mind, and the lack of compassion, respect, or even mild sympathy the treat their hostages with.

That the left seem unable to condemn this spate of kidnappings (and God only knows what human-rights violations are taking place therein), or even, it seems, the savage treatment of the poor Beslan kids; but still manage to find some kind of misplaced and totally undeserved sympathy for the prisoners of Gitmo and Abu Ghraib, makes my stomach churn.It angers me, and the question "how does the mind of a liberal (5th column,socialist vermin) work, or does it actually work at all??? Where is there sense of priority, patriotism, self-worth, empathy for people of the civilized world (even North Ossetia is civilized in comparison to most islamic dung-heaps), and what the hell is it that they see in these islamic jihadist scumbags who are, quite obviously, (and I'm going to use a wee bit of a cliche here) horrible,awful people; who deserve less respect than head-lice.

I will never understand the logic of their thinking , or what the source of it is, and how all of them have the same attitudes (and responses, when it comes to having arguments and discussions), that rather than say that these kidnappings are cowardly acts be uncivilized savages, instead resort to either highlighting that it's all america's fault (these people want an end to occupation...yawn....),or listing off the sins of westerners.

I have given up trying now, on my quest on leftist websites, to open up a few eyes, because all the work I do is a waste of time, as all the BS I've cleansed from some of their heads is just filled up again by their moronic ilk.

One final thing- I'VE BEEN BANNED FROM TALKLEFT WHICH I MIGHT ADD IS FREQUENTED BY A GROUP OF THE MOST IGNORANT, UNREASONABLE, HYPOCRITICAL, BABOONS THAT THE LEFT HAS YET COUGHED UP, WHO ARE INCAPABLE OF HOLDING A DISCUSSION WITHOUT REPEATING CRAP CLEARED UP EARLIER, CALLING YOU RACIST AND RESORTING TOCONDESENDING SARCASM.
IN LIGHT OF ALL THIS I SAY FUCK THEM ALL!!!

Rikki:

I could have told you that it was a waste of time. The only thing that will wake them up is catastrophe, and even then they'll say it's somehow our fault. Rest assured that there are plenty of us who know the Truth and who will fight to the last breath for that Truth. Those who will not be convinced may perish, but it's not your responsibility. Many lambs will be led to the slaughter of their own free will. So be it.

Rikki & CGW, were there not Jews, academic intellectuals, etc. in Germany playing pattycake with the Nazi's before their later incarceration & death in WWII? There were appeasers then, and there are appeasers now. The crocodile bites them last? What they fail to recognize from the start is the dead stare of a an evil reptile. Atta comes to mind, so does the slithery talk of any Muslim with picnic-table cloth on his head.

Rikki~ Apparently at least one person on the left believes that the Hurricanes hitting Florida are an attempt to influence the election for Bush. With a mindset like that, what more could you expect?

btw, TechCentralStation has several recent good articles on hurricanes, and why they are an indicator global warming is NOT happening.

I think extremists on the right and left give them both a bad name. They both sound like religious nuts.

f.g.

Actually, a translation that was posted yesterday by MEMRI.ORG of the trial of some Turks involved in the bombing of two synagogues and an HSBC branch last spring suggests Jihadists are not simply in it for Islam and the 72 virgins that may await them if they are martyred -- they are also in it for the money: The two accused received a total of $200,000, $150,000 of it from a Syrian Al Qaeda contact and $50,000 from Iran.

Yup......the "religion of peace" is at it again.

Another article supporting 'no regime change' in Washington for the next election:

And: Bad year for Florida. The latest tracking info for Jeanne has it swinging into Florida by Tuesday. That (may) make 4 hits in a row on the state. Statistically it had to happen sooner or later, but with hundreds of millions of years to happen, why did it have to happen now?

Have you noticed how they go for soft targets : armed gangs of thugs wearing ninja turtle face coverings [mujahideen are frightened of being recognised for their crimes] to terrorize and take away unarmed civilians sleeping in their beds! Or helpless women and children. All in the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful and Compassionate... Give me an 'Honest Villain' anytime than this lot justifying their most evil deeds with pious quotations. Of course Mo was the
World's No 1 TERRORIST so suppose they do have a point...

The state dept.should issue a statement indicating that if the hostages are not immediatelly released,ALL MOSQUES IN THE US,WILL BE PERMANENTLY CLOSED.
