What these Iraqis kidnappers are doing is nothing short of an act of criminal cowardice.
If they are so courageous why didn't they kidnap Saddam or one of his sons, why back when he was committing his calamities one after another?
They are all of sudden so courageous now that the US army jailed Saddam!
That is right; they are so courageous and strong. They can kidnap civilians such as contractors or journalists and cut their heads off in front of a video camera while wearing a veil!
And now they are so prominent that they are reaching out to help fellow Muslims in France who are French citizens by kidnapping two French civilians!
They are saving those French citizens from their horrible government which so far is wise enough to neither attack nor scavenger their county Iraq as he was invited to, so many times.
This French government who stood up to the USA and refused to be part of Iraq’s occupation.
This French government who paid the price in dollars. The Americans were so mad that they mounted a campaign against French that resulted in boycotting the French goods and bad mouthed France all over the place and they still do.
This French government who still stood his ground and refused to be part of so called coalition and called on the US to hand the keys of country back to the Iraqi people ASP.
But you know these Iraqi kidnappers are just so smart that the next smart thing they come up with is: to kidnap 2 inoffensive French civilian journalists.
Never mind that journalists that cover wars are among the few courageous people who put their lives in line in order to keep us informed on what goes on the ground, and in the case of the French the less likely to be biased ones since France is against this war in the first place.
But again these Iraqis kidnappers are so right; they have to get their moment TV fame!
Playing Robin Hood when they are nothing else but a fraud.
If every Iraqi has the choice between being a French citizen with right to protest and the right to freedom of speech and risk having his daughter’s head not covered for the school hours; or, be an abused citizen (with almost no rights) of Iraq, Saudia, Iran or Syria...etc and a life insurance that his daughter is covered from her head to her toes: I wonder if these kidnappers themselves would not choose to become French.
