UK hostages 'likely to be dead'
Two more of the British hostages held in Iraq are now thought "very likely" to be dead, the BBC has learned.
Security guards Alan McMenemy, from Glasgow, and Alec Maclachlan, from south Wales, were kidnapped in 2007 along with three other Britons.
The bodies of two of the other men were found last month with gunshot wounds.
The condition of the fifth man, Peter Moore, is not known. The Foreign Office says all efforts are being made to secure the hostages' release.
These where civilians and not combat soldiers, a very cowardly thing to do and it shows how calous and barbaric these Muslim fanatic terrorist really are. They call this a holy action I expect, they are just butchers and thugs low life of the lowest grade. How brave these morans must think they are.

So are Christian and Jewish as well as Buddhist extremism, even National extremist are a threat as bad or worth then any other form of extremism.
The way you are commenting on Postings today "bettermakings" I suppose you are among one of the worth threats around.
Remember the IRA, the RAF and BMG or Timothy McVeigh,
McVeigh was not only a United States Army veteran and security guard who was convicted of bombing the Alfred P. Murrah Building in Oklahoma City on April 19, 1995, the second anniversary of the Waco Siege, as revenge or to inspire revolt against what he considered a tyrannical federal government. He was also a good Republican and an Extremist Christian.
The bombing killed 168 people, and was the deadliest act of terrorism within the United States prior to the September 11, 2001 attacks. He was convicted of 11 federal offenses, sentenced to death, and executed on June 11, 2001.

Religious extremism can justify any act in the name of religion. It doesn't matter what philosophy is followed.

Violence in an extremist cause, religious or secular, is always wrong.
