| 2008-05-07 | |
| WARSAW - A Kuwaiti who held three young Brazilian Jews hostage in a Warsaw hotel Monday has been charged with hostage-taking and faces a maximum five years in prison, a Polish police official said Tuesday. The man, identified only as Mohamed A., 23, was drunk during the incident. 'He has pleaded guilty,' Warsaw police spokesman Marcin Szyndler told AFP. 'He has shown remorse and is prepared to cover the costs of the police operation,' he added. According to Poland's PAP news agency the hostage-taker is related to Kuwait's ambassador to Poland.
Along with thousands of young Jews from across the globe, the three Brazilians were in Poland as part of the annual March of the Living, a Holocaust memorial event which took place May 1 at the Auschwitz-Birkenau former Nazi German concentration camp. | |

| #1 Welcome to Islam RPG! You have entered a dark cave which smells slightly of camel and goat urine. Here are your options: 1) Give up booze, rock n roll and general fun. Grow a wispy beard & starve for one month of the year. Sleep deprivation is also mandated with the requirement to bang your head on the floor five times a day occurring at approx three in the morning and again at five thirty. Loony tunes uniform of jacked up pyjamas provided. 2) Leave Islam. No need to give up booze, in fact you will probably need to drink quite a bit to be able to deal with the stresses of alienation by all of your kin and the constant worry of being killed as an apostate. However, your booze drinking could be drastically reduced to zero following a beheading. 3) Kidnap and kill a few Jews and / or infidels. Jihad Fi S'abillah entitles you to continue to drink booze under the auspices of infiltrating the enemy. Cheers! Which option will you choose: 1, 2, or 3? |
