I Hope This Is True

RE: the CPT hostages in Iraq:

A multinational and Iraqi swat team 'snatched' them, successfully,

from their captors in the wee hours, Baghdad time.

BBC is reporting that NO ONE was killed in this operation, not the

hostages, their "hosts" or the SWAT team.

BBC is focusing A LOT on the pacifist and religious beliefs of Norm

Kember, the Briton, and have said a lot about the work of the CPT in

Palestine, Guatemala, and in other conflict zones.

For more details, see http://electronicIraq.net where we will be

posting all kinds of news, analyses and details throughout the day, as

our site is a joint collaboration between the CPT and the

ElectronicIntifada team. We rarely have good news to report from Iraq,

so this is a happy day.

These are some of the bravest people in the world, and very committed

to their mission. Models for us all.

It is so sad that the US member of the team, Tom Fox, was murdered,

though.

Cheers,

Laurie
