Amnesty International | Iraq: Civilian hostages must be released immediately

Amnesty International is concerned about the fate of several foreign nationals held hostage in Iraq. The organization appeals to armed groups in Iraq to end the practice of hostage taking and immediately release all hostages.

'By holding civilians hostage under threat of death, armed groups in Iraq are violating a fundamental rule of international humanitarian law,' said Amnesty International.



Yet another case of the evil fellow travellers at Amnesty International always protecting the terrorists.
