Islamic 'warriors' will take anyone they can get. The 'art' of kidnapping is an open canvas. Nothing will be left out, all are liable to feel the wrath, pain and misery that the terrorist kidnappers intend to inflict.
And like I said earlier, it is just disrespecful to joke like that, not to mention illegal.
Someone on here knows someone dear to them that was executed by hijackers and I don't see that person laughing. In fact many here are lucky this person hasn't come to give them their opinion on this. Well I hope I speak for them when I say, what some have intended as fun others have taken as serious and scary. We must respect the others who actually live through these exeriences. To deny this simple virtue is to be unjust and inhumane.

I have no problem with Nans, just her little joke. There is difference. Out of all people on this board Nans knows that I am not out to insult her person. I had made many efforts to rebuild her personal connections to the other members on this board so reluctant to take her in as one of their own. People like UP and yourself, High Warrior. Remember that???
My only intentions were to keep peace within our boards. I don't want any massive police raids or jumpy security personnel observing my comments. Do you???
Then don't talk so casually about kidnapping. The lack of disregard for those that have been kidnapped is very clear when one makes jokes about potentail threats to a person abduction. Can you not see how that is wrong???
What about the ones who think of nothing but dead loved ones once they hear, "Kidnapping", or "hijacked"??????
Not very pleased I am sure. Just think about that.

AV, opening old wounds is a petty way to argue in a debate... Yeah, so when nans was up to her anti-us crap i got defensive. But people change, and I have noticed that Nans has not posted anti-US stuff in a long time. It's forgiven.
Quite frankly... It's a joke. Yeah, you can get in trouble for jokes, but when you explain that it's a joke, USUALLY people are nice enough to just blow it off. Police are already viewing your posts, AV. All of them. Our good friends at the FBI are currently taking the liberty to make sure not "terroristic threats" against the US are made on this board. I doubt that the FBI would have cared that a Belgian was "kidnapped."
As for the kidnap victims and families flipping, I'm sorry they or someone they love was kidnapped, but move on. They waste their lives sitting there feeling sorry for themselves. If they don't, good. That's a sign of a wise person.
You need to take a valium and just let it go. It's a joke.
Signing off,

I'm not sure HLW, sometimes people dont understand jokes. And you can be sure that the person who create the account under the name : "informationminister@iraqmail" at arabia.com identity will be probably control.
Sincerely, I would prefer that the person who send me this mail tell me his name. But I'm a tolerant person and when I received the mail I immediately understood that it was a joke (Terrorist are more fine the Ha, Ha, we have UP... )
Anyway, it's an address I use for "hot" contact like that...
I even recently receive another nigerian bizness "offer that I cant refuse" .
But with the recent event (Yesterday bombs in Saudi), I dont think that the words -kidnapped- -iraq- or -alqaeda- are word to use in mail, even for a joke.
The Abraham reaction isn't a bad rection because he take care...
