Taliban Behead Polish Hostage

It has been a busy weekend of beheading and kidnapping for the Jihadikazes in Pakistan. Taliban fighters from the South Waziristan area of Pakistan have beheaded a Polish hostage.

The timing of this beheading and the release of Dr. Abdul Qadeer Khan, the Father of the Pakistan nuclear bomb, may be a coincidence - I doubt it.

Kahn, is a known cohort of Al-Qaeda and the Taliban, namely Baitullah Mehsud, a ruthless tribal warlord from South Waziristan. In my opinion, Mehsud is in some way tied into the assassination of former Pakistani Prime Minister Benizir Bhutto.

Taliban fighters in Pakistan have beheaded a Polish geologist captured in the northwest of the country four months ago, the movement has said.

A spokesman, identified only as Mohammed, told several news organisations that Piotr Stancza was killed after authorities failed to meet a deadline set for the release of some of the group's fighters.

"We have killed the man after authorities refused to release our colleagues," he told the Reuters news agency.

"We will now only hand over his body after our demands are met." More...
In other terrorist news, The Baluchistan Liberation United Front kidnapped, John Solecki, head of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) office last week when his car was ambushed in Quetta....

"We have three demands, and if our demands are not met, then John Solecki will lose his life," a spokesman, identifying himself as Shahak Baluch, told the agency.

"We want the United Nations to secure the release of 141 women in Pakistani torture cells, provide information about more than 6,000 missing persons, and resolve the issue of Baluch independence under the Geneva Convention." More...

Being the deft negotiators that they are, Solecki should just begin saying his prayers.
