We know that the likes of you and those who have abducted other peace activists do not represent the majority of the Iraqi resistance. In fact it is very likely that this action was carried out by covert US operations in order to break up the solidarity of the anti-war movement.
Engineer and author of "Asleep at the Geiger Counter". Why are so many people asleep on many crucial issues. It often seems that the good old USA stands for the United State of Apathy.
We pray for the release of the CPT hostages and all prisoners in this illegal war. We pray that this event will bring a transformation within the individuals holding the CPT members and with the military occupiers.
May there be Peace.
These hostages are people who are working for the good of the Iraqi people. They are not trying to convert Islamic people whose religion they respect. They should be freed so they can continue working for the Iraqi people.
We pray that the captors will soon realize that these men are the true peacemakers in a land ravaged by those proclaiming to be freeing the people through continuing violence.
Please realize that these hostages have made sacrifices for the benefit of the Iraqi people. Their desire is to help the Iraqis take back their country.
This is not the behavior of a resistance group. This is the behavior of the CIA. If you ARE a resistance group..kknow that these actions are only justifying the opression of 'Iraqi' people. This is confusing and swaying public opinion in those who do not have the critical thinking skills to see beyond limiting media options and dramas.
If this is NOT a resistance group..then you are guilty of more than murder but of mass manipulation and deception. May Truth prevail.
Christian Peacemaker Team members are the friends of Iraqis. They oppose the war, oppose the occupation, and are only in Iraq at the invitation of Iraqis who support CPT's nonviolent witness.
