Hostage found dead in Baghdad

Remember the Christian Peacemaker Teams foursome that was kidnapped by terrorists last November? At least one of them has been murdered execution-style in Baghdad:

Tom Fox, 54, from Clear Brook, Va., was the fifth American hostage killed in Iraq. There was no immediate word on his fellow hostages, a Briton and two Canadians.

He was shot in the head:

He said Fox was found with his hands tied and gunshot wounds to his head and chest. There were cuts on his body and bruises on his head, al-Mohammedawi said.

You'd think CPT would be calling for justice, yes? Well, no. True to form, Christian Peacemaker Teams ignores the obvious in their statement:

In response to Tom’s passing, we ask that everyone set aside inclinations to vilify or demonize others, no matter what they have done.

There you have it. Bringing terrorists to justice equals villification. Protecting folks from terror equals demonization. How much more deluded can you get?

If those folks were back in the WW2 era, they would be worried that we might blame the Nazis and Hitler for the unfortunate passing away of 6 million Jews.
