Italian women hostages may be dead
Women, Children, Men, Elderly, New York, Israel, Russia, Spain, Iraq... it doesn't matter to these terrorists. They will continue to kill because they believe that they're doing the will of Allah. 
I hope every single one of those cowards dies a slow painful death.
Look at these beautiful Italian women:
Let's hope that this isn't true and that they'll be returned to safety. Unfortunately, Reuters is a respectable news source that's not quick to pull a Dan Rathers.

Look at these beautiful Italian women:
DUBAI (Reuters) - An Islamist group in Iraq (news - web sites) said it had killed two female Italian hostages in a statement posted on an Internet site, but the women's employers in Italy said on Thursday they had not given up hope.
Italian government sources urged "the utmost caution" and said that there was nothing to confirm the statement by a group calling itself the Jihad Organization, which said it had killed the women because Italy had not obeyed its call to withdraw its forces from Iraq.
The aid organization Bridge to Baghdad which employed the two women said on its Web site that the report -- posted on a site not often used by Iraqi militant groups -- was "not very credible" and it had serious doubts about its veracity.
"We are hoping. It will take time to check," it said in a statement on its Web site early on Thursday. "Until we have certainty, we will not have peace."

Is it bad that I am even more upset because these women are so attractive? Maybe it's that they look much more gracefull and delicate than the men, and therefor it is even more unbelievable that someone can do this to them... and then BRAG about it! Hey, I just stepped on your bunny rabbit! Fear me!-Chris

But you can't let it settle inside your brain or else you're doing exactly what the terrorists want... hence my Dan Rathers pun.

In other news 6 Egyptians & 2 Iraqis have been kidnapped in Iraq. Maybe it's our way of life that threatens these terrorists the most, not just our occupation. It exemplifies the fact these terrorists can trace anything back to Allah's will as they deem fit.
