Another Hostage Murdered

CNN.com - Japanese hostage killed by captors
Another hostage has been murdered -- executed! This man was Japanese and I am sure the liberal message boards and forums will have American citizens claiming it is Bush's, the Military's, or both’s fault... This is amazing; all heck is breaking loose over the treatment of a book and no concern for murder. The media refuses to call these less then human individuals - terrorist, electing to refer to them as captors, insurgents, or kidnappers -- what is the deal. Besides electing to be more concerned about a book (the Koran) than this man, where is the concern about the hundreds of Muslims killed by the terrorist in the last month -- strange that a book holds more value then human life.
BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- The Iraqi government has confirmed that Japanese hostage Akihiko Saito has been killed by his captors.
Saito, who worked in Iraq for a British security company, was among five foreign workers ambushed by insurgents in the Anbar province west of Baghdad in early May.
The other four were confirmed dead.
An Islamic Web site previously used to publish insurgent announcements posted a video showing Saito before and after his his death.
