Killing hostages will have the opposite effect of what these animals want.
…
A group calling itself the Green Brigade has killed one of the four Italians hostages it had abducted.
The group said in a statement sent to Aljazeera along with a video tape on Wednesday that it had killed the hostage because the Italian president Silvio Berlusconi said pulling his troops out of Iraq was “not in question.”
Responding to the news of the killing, the Italian president, however, insisted his resolve was firm and unchanged.
“They have destroyed a life, they have not cracked our values and our efforts for peace,” the Italian president said.
Gruesome tape
Aljazeera earlier described the tape as “too bloody” and said it will not air it “in order not to upset viewers sensitivities”
