Steve Centanni Update
Wednesday, August 23, 2006 By: Juan Paxety
Group demands prisoner exchange
Fox News is reporting that a previously unheard of group Holy Jihad Brigades has claimed responsibility for kidnapping journalists Steve Centanni and Olaf Wiig. The group released a video showing the two mean, who asked for help in gaining their release.
The group demanded the release of Muslim prisoners in the United States - the first time a Palestinian group has demanded a response from a country other than Israel.
"We are going to exchange the Muslim female and male prisoners in American jails in return for the prisoners that we have. We are going to give you 72 hours, beginning midnight tonight, to take your decision," the statement said. "If you implement and meet our condition, we will fulfill our promise. If not, wait, and we are going to wait with you."
What would happen if some folks formed the Redneck Retribution Regiment, grabbed a few Muslims and held them hostage? Think CAIR would blow a fuse?
