8. They did it. Body of kidnapped Italian peace activist Vittorio Arrigoni found in Gaza

http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/apr/15/gaza-threaten-execute-vittorio-arrigoni">Body of kidnapped Italian peace activist Vittorio Arrigoni found in Gaza
An Italian pro-Palestinian activist has reportedly been kidnapped and killed by Islamic militants in Gaza.

The body of Vittorio Arrigoni was found in an abandoned house in the Gaza Strip on Friday following his abduction by militants, a Hamas official said.

Two men were arrested and others were being sought in the killing, the official added.

A Jihadist Salafi group in the Gaza Strip aligned with al-Qaida had threatened to execute Arrigoni by 5pm local time on Thursday unless their leader, whom Hamas arrested last month, was freed.
