| Seized Palestinians freed in Iraq Some 30 Palestinians seized by armed men in Baghdad have been freed, the UN refugee agency says. The UNHCR says most of the Palestinians held in two separate incidents early on Tuesday are believed to be refugees. In the first case, men reportedly wearing Iraqi security forces uniforms broke into a house rented by the UNHCR, seizing 17 Palestinians. Shortly afterwards, the second group of 13 Palestinians was kidnapped in another part of the Iraqi capital. The UNHCR said the Palestinians were freed after spending several hours in detention. "Most of them are very scared," UNHCR spokeswoman Astrid Van Genderen Stort told the Associated Press news agency in Geneva. In the first incident, the armed men entered the UNHCR building at around 0500 local time (0200 GMT), broke windows and doors, abducted the men but left the women behind, the UNHCR said earlier. The second group of Palestinians was kidnapped later in another district of Baghdad later. "Obviously it's causing a lot of panic among the Palestinian community in Baghdad who have been targeted for the past years," Ms van Genderen Stort said. Some 15,000 Palestinians live in Baghdad as refugees, but are unable to move freely because of a lack of documentation, UNHCR officials say. They say Palestinians face constant threats, and are increasingly targeted for killings, kidnapping, harassment and other abuses. Palestinians received preferential treatment when Saddam Hussein ruled the country. They supported his invasion of Kuwait but have become targets since Saddam's overthrow four years ago. |
Clearly America's fault for removing Saddam from power thereby creating the circumstances which give rise to such incidents. Next.
See, here in America, we're so responsible that not only are we responsible for our own actions, but we're responsible for the actions of other people, too. Oh, but only if those actions are bad!

Sure, it happened in Iraq and by Iraqis, but if the Jews weren't so horrible, they wouldn't have been "refugees" in the first place. So, in the end I blame America first and Israel second. I place no responsibility on their kidnappers. |
