~snip~The Arabic-language television network Al Jazeera reported earlier Tuesday a group led by Jordanian-born Islamic militant Abu Musab al-Zarqawi had freed the men contractors, who were kidnapped last week.

"For the sake of you, our brothers, and Muslims of the people of Turkey ... we will release these hostages and send them safely home," the statement said.

Interesting that they let muslims go free but koreans, americans, jews, etc are all subject to beheadings for interfering in "muslim" affairs. At any rate it's good that more blood isn't being shed.

Morguerat, as I mentioned to you in PM, you need to be a bit careful treading around the "Islam factor" in these attacks/kidnappings, as they violate our religious moratorium. I realise that for many of you this is a key component to the debate, but we'll just have to live without discussing it. Cheers. [img]smile.gif[/img]
