Are you proud of yourself now, Mr. Bush?
Freedom's on the march.





Margaret Hassan, the kidnapped director of CARE International in Iraq (news - web sites), appears in this image made from television in a videotape aired by the Arabic television station Al-Jazeera, Friday, Oct. 22, 2004. Hassan is seen weeping and pleading for British Prime Minister Tony Blair (news - web sites) to withdraw troops from Iraq and not bring them to Baghdad because this might be my last hours. She said she might be killed like British hostage Kenneth Bigley, who was beheaded by his captors earlier this month. (AP Photo/Al-Jazzera via APTN)

2. If this woman is murdered, then the Brits might finally rise up
and dump Blair who will then, of course, step into a cushy job with Carlyle group.

4. Look
I can’t stand Bush any more than anyone else, but lets talk about these murderous Islamic freaks who have captured an innocent women, whose life is to help people.

This lady is defenseless and presumably unarmed and is trying to make the world right and these people are going to kill her?

And then we blame Bush? Yea, Bush is scum. He’s a idiot, and has blood on his hands and I’ll agree with that, but these psychos deserve some of the blame as well. Just as Bush’s attack on Iraq inspires resurgency so too will these premeditated attacks on innocent civilians just trying to do what’s right will inspire the pro-war crowd.

Not that I like it at all, but attacks on our military are par for the course, but attacks on people like this women are unacceptable and these cowardly fucks won’t win any brownie-points. They are complete psychos and have no regard for human life.

5. They probably won't kill a woman.
Just a guess, not being sarcastic.

7. I heard/read (forget when) they found the body of a beheaded blond
Western woman...so I wouldn't count on it. Never heard a follow-up story.

Hunt each and every one of these fuckers down and take no prisoners. I'm even ok with a little collateral damage on this one.

8. Maybe the turd can mock her pleading for her life like he
did with Karla Faye Tucker before he had her executed.
