Hostages in Iraq

Four peace protesters, including a Virginian, have been taken hostage in Iraq. This is further proof of the savages that we are dealing with; just because there seems to be little love for American troops by these four does not mean that terrorists will go any easier on them.

Unfortunately, I do not suspect most of the loony left will learn a lesson from this. They have become a liability by putting themselves in danger, but this will not stop it from happening in the future.

Still, as foolish as these four are for getting themselves in this situation, it is sad, because they do not deserve to be in such a situation. Though I disagree with their stand on the war (and their methodology in conveying it), terror must be defeated to ensure that these four and the millions of others are able to speak their minds without the fear of tyranny restricting them.
