#1 It's a pretty straight-forward statement. On second read there's with an enormously large omission.

"It is with profound sadness that we have learnt of the existence of a video in which it appears that our colleague Margaret Hassan has been killed."

By whom? If you can't even speak it's name how will you ever defeat it so that the noble services of CARE are never again needed in Iraq?

"We are shocked and appalled that this has been the apparent outcome of her abduction."

Don't be naive. If you didn't see this as the end result someone has not been paying attention.

May she rest in peace and may the scum that shot her die a slow painful death while playing possum in front of a US Marine inside a mosque.

#2 exactly - who made the video? Their "cause"? Their demands? No moral outrage, is there? Like it was a tragic accident....the only tragic thing was she trusted ALL muslims, no?
