Four western peace activists - two Canadians, an American, and a Briton - from Christian Peacemaker Teams have been taken hostage in Iraq by a group calling itself the Swords of Righteousness Brigade.
The CPT says it's "angry" at the kidnappings - but not at the Swords of Righteousness Brigade: "We are angry because what has happened to our teammates is the result of the actions of the U.S. and U.K. governments due to the illegal attack on Iraq and the continuing occupation and oppression of its people."
There is something very satisfying in knowing that these people are being held at gunpoint by the same people that they were trying to aid and comfort... You know, the enemy, the same people that "we have to understand and be sensitive towards."
I know one is American, but their actions provide the enemy comfort, and under those circumstances that is an American that I will not defend... Just as they do not defend our soldiers. I'm sure seeing their colleagues freshly lopped off head roll by as the people they were trying to aid and comfort chant, "Allah Akbar" as they get their rocks off might make them think twice about the position they held so dearly, but it will be too late then, won't it? But, then again they are over in Iraq as peace activists, acting just as peace activists do. They are blaming the Coalition forces and the U.S. over the war, and they are voicing it load and clear. They are in a war zone, literally on the battlefield with, no, against their own countrymen, stirring up trouble for them while comforting the enemy. It's ****ing ridiculous. Now they have been kidnapped and those they tried to comfort are now aiming guns at their heads.
They are already blaming President Bush and Prime Minister Blair. What they don't realize is those, and those like them, who kidnapped them are the ones making the war. If it weren't for them and their ilk, we'd already have our boys home.
Anyway, so here's a sure way of testing their dumbass "we have to understand them and be sensitive towards them" philsophy... We'll see what happens. Good luck, appeaser dipshits.
Oh, before I go, I read somewhere that this same group had an Adopt-a-Detainee idea! You gotta be kidding me! Again, do you think they'll have learned anything from this little experience or will they just find some other enemies of the U.S. and the Coalition to get in bed with? Maybe if, and that's a big if, they are released they can all be pen pals with their new friends?
