| Fallujah Hostage Slaughterhouse Find |
| 2004-11-11 |
| HOSTAGE slaughterhouses have been discovered in the heart of Fallujah by coalition troops, the Iraqi government said last night. Westerners are believed to have been held in them before being beheaded by followers of terror chief Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. And yesterday three members of Iraqi interim prime minister Ayad Allawi's own family were abducted at gunpoint from their Baghdad home. Iraqi commandos found CDs and records of people who have been kidnapped and beheaded in the murder centres, an Iraqi official confirmed. Major General Abdul Qader Mohammed Jassem Mohan said: "We have found hostage slaughterhouses in Fallujah that were used by these people and the black clothing they used to wear to identify themselves, hundreds of CDs and records with names of hostages." It is not known if the records reveal the whereabouts of kidnapped British aid worker Margaret Hassan. The killing houses were located in the northern part of Fallujah, where US officials believe the hard-core fighters have been holed up. Premier Allawi's 75 year-old cousin, Ghazi Allawi, his cousin's wife and his cousin's daughter-in law have been threatened with death unless the Fallujah attack is abandoned. The previously unknown extremist group Ansar al-Jihad group claimed responsibility on an Islamic website, saying: "If the agent government doesn't respond to our demands within 48 hours, they will be beheaded." |

| #3 Funny.... I was watching ABC news awhile ago and this wasn't mentioned at all. Yet the big blast in Bagdad was front and center. Oh and the coverage of what a terrible, horrorible time the marines are having taking Fallujah (no mention they hold 70-80% of the city already....). I guess its a good think the terrorists didn't place woman's panty on his head. |

| #2 (link) Close up of the Marines from 1st Divison removing handcuffs off of one of the Iraqi hostages taken by Fullujah based terrorists. The man handcuffed was kidnapped 10 days ago in Baghdad's suburb of Abu Ghraib by the 'brave' jihad killers. Are there any leftists which want to rush to Iraq to become a 'human shield' now? The next time the Kerry losers start acting up, ask them. |

#1  Marines of the 1st Division use a bolt cutter to take of the handcuffs of an Iraqi, at a makeshift military hospital in Fallujah, Iraq, Wednesday, Nov. 10th, 2004. The Iraqi whose name was not released, was found handcuffed in an insurgent hiding place in Fallujah, after being kidnapped 10 days ago in Baghdad's suburb of Abu Ghraib. The Marines believe he was used as a 'human shield'. |
