WHO FRAMED MARGARET HASSAN ?
Three days ago, journalist Kurt Nimmo wrote about the 'strange kidnapping' of Care's Margaret Hassan 'that it might well be a concerted CIA/MOSSAD operation'. And on the ground in Iraq this is more and more confirmed.
CIA-Mossad False Flag ?
Comment in the Independent: "The resistance did not kidnap her because this would have left a bad impression of the resistance in the world
Kurt Nimmo wrote this: "CIA-Mossad False Flag Terrorists Threaten to Kill Margaret Hassan" - It’s now obvious. Either the resistance in Iraq is so stupid they can’t put their shoes on in the morning without help or the people who kidnapped Hassan work for the CIA and Mossad.
Kidnapping and beheading contractors is one thing. But kidnapping and beheading Margaret Hassan, who has selflessly dedicated years of her life to help impoverished Iraqis, will be quite another. Such a brutal and heartless act will send the intended message: the Iraqi resistance is comprised of monsters and serial murderers—and there can be no response other than wiping them from the face of the earth.
Hassan’s kidnapping is preparing the way for the Fallujahization of Iraq after Bush is re-appointed or Kerry is elected—massive, unremitting, and terrible mass murder of all who resist the occupation, including women, children, and old people." [andend]

Today in the Independent - UK - are comments by resistance people in Iraq and others: "This woman works for a humanitarian organisation. She should not have been kidnapped," the emir, or commander, of one group of Iraqi insurgents in Fallujah told Reuters reporters.
"She had been living in Iraq for 30 years and she was a humanitarian. The resistance did not kidnap her because this would have left a bad impression of the resistance in the world," he added.
Commanders of five separate guerrilla groups in Fallujah said they were not holding Mrs Hassan and had seen no evidence that Abu Musab al-Zarqawi's organisation had kidnapped her."
The text of the article, however carefully phrased, makes quite clear that a faked kidnapping by the CIA/MOSSAD or some other brand of 'deadly spooks', is very likely, and shouldn't surprise anybody.
Just ask: "Who Profits" ?
In the Independent story by journalist James Sturcke, published today, he headlines the case: "Rebel militias deny holding British aid worker Hassan". Since he is a British journalist in wartime, he has to take the wartime censorship into account, the D-Notice by the Blair government and the Ministry of Defence, which 'guides' the British media, including the warmongering BBC:

Anyhow: this is what's in the Independent today: "Confusion surrounded the fate of the Iraq aid worker Margaret Hassan last night, after main rebel groups denied being involved with her kidnap. Insurgents in Fallujah condemned the abduction of the charity chief who was snatched by an armed gang in Baghdad six days ago. Despite making a video of the hostage in captivity, the kidnappers have not been pictured or made any claim of responsibility.
The statement by the Fallujah group came a day after the husband of Irish-born Mrs. Hassan made an plea for her release on an Arabic TV station.

Commanders of five separate guerrilla groups in Fallujah said they were not holding Mrs Hassan and had seen no evidence that Abu Musab al-Zarqawi's organisation had kidnapped her.
The US military and Iraqi government officials say Fallujah is a base for foreign militants loyal to Zarqawi, a Jordanian whose group has claimed responsibility for kidnappings and murders, including that of British hostage Ken Bigley. [Zarqawi may have existed, but now is said to be a US 'spook creation']
Mrs Hassan, who worked in Iraq for the aid agency Care International and holds British and Iraqi citizenship, was seized on Tuesday. She appeared on a video on Arabic al-Jazeera television on Friday making a tearful plea for her life. On Saturday, her husband Tahseen Ali Hassan begged for her to be freed "in the name of Islam", as he appeared on another station, al-Arabiya.
"It hurts to watch my wife cry," he said. "This scene has saddened and worried her friends and loved ones. I plead with you, in the name of Islam and Arabism - while we are in the most sacred Islamic month - that my wife and beloved return to me."
Charity Care International has also pleaded for Mrs Hassan to be freed in a statement read on al-Jazeera by the organisation's secretary general, Denis Caillaux. He said she was dedicated to the Iraqi people and added: "She is a naturalised Iraqi citizen and always holds the people of Iraq in her heart."
Yesterday, the Foreign Office refused to be drawn on a Sunday newspaper report that British security officials were trying to find the intermediary who established contact with the captors of Ken Bigley during his kidnap ordeal.
It was claimed they want to ascertain if she is being held by the group which seized and eventually killed Mr Bigley.
The report also said Prime Minister Tony Blair and Foreign Secretary Jack Straw [ another one of those warcriminals - HR] had been asked to take a back seat in appeals for her release with Care International taking the lead.
A Foreign Office spokesman would only reiterate that efforts were continuing on her behalf, saying: "We are working closely with the Iraqi authorities to secure Margaret's release."
Mrs Hassan, who was born in Dublin, appeared in a video shown on al-Jazeera on Friday.
She looked tired and distraught in the video as she called on Tony Blair to pull out of Iraq and not to send troops to Baghdad. [andend]
