4/8 On Al-Jazeera, an announcer read a statement he said came with the
video .... "Three of your sons have fallen into our hands," the
Al-Jazeera announcer read. "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." Japan's NHK television
identified the captives as two aid workers and a journalist. The
passports shown in the video belong to: Noriaki Imai, born 1985;
Soichiro Koriyama, 32; Nahoko Takato, 34. The gunmen also displayed
a press card for Koriyama from the weekly newspaper Asahi. ...
Associated Press Television News obtained a copy of the full video,
which also shows four masked men pointing knives and swords at the
captives as they lay on the floor of a room with concrete walls. At
one point, a gunman holds a knife to the throat of one of the men;
his eyes widen in panic and he struggles to try to get free. The
woman weeps and her lips move as if speaking. There was no audio to
the footage. -NY Times (today)
(The article also describes the method by which eight Korean Christian
missionaries were also kidnapped, now subsequently released.)
\_ Will they saran wrap them up first? The Japanese love that.
\_ If they execute them, nuke their city.
\_ Which city? All of them???
\_ Nukes are cheap. We've been spending big bucks to dismantle
them for 20 years. Use a few.
\_ Whenever I see someone threatening to slit someone's throat
(as it happened with Pearl and probably some of the 9/11 flights),
I think of this video: http://csua.org/u/6tv NOT WORK SAFE.
Probably the most horrible video I've ever seen, and I've seen
all of soda's famous ones. This is no joke.
\_ that's pretty damn horrible/scary... Who was the poor guy?
\_ Care to elaborate for those who opt not to view it?
\_ They stick a knife in the guy's throat, and slash it,
and then cut his head off. It's really awful.
\_ it's propaganda footage from Chechen rebels. The guy is
a captured young Russian soldier.
\_ We're supposed to be pitying the poor rebels, right? If
not, would it help their acuse if they sent their kids
into civilian areas wearing bomb belts?
\_ that is nothing, in Indonesia, the muslim bastards
killeda 14 year old Chinese christian girl by sticking
