Kenneth Bigley murdered
 
Just heard on the news :(

Jap2Scrap 08 October 2004 12:51 PM

B*stards

Despite the 'brought it on himself' idea, and there is definitely a truth to that, it's still outrageous that anyone can take a life like that.

Feel especially sorry for his wife as I'm sure she'll now be abandoned by the rest of the family living back in Britain.

Hope someone learns something from it all.

Edcase 08 October 2004 12:52 PM

Are you sure? can't find anything about it online...

eClaire 08 October 2004 12:53 PM

Oh fcuk :(

Tony SHOULD have backed down IMO. Total cnut. Now that poor man has been killed.

Just makes you realise how lucky you really are. Can't help but weep. I tried not to watch the footage of him pleading for his life, it all seemed a bit surreal and didn't really set in what was happening - until now.

:(

Still unconfirmed at present. They released a report saying the 2 Italian women had been killed, but obviously that proved to be untrue. Be sad if it is however.

http://uk.news.yahoo.com/041008/325/f46f8.html is the only place I can find it.

As for Tony being a c*nt, that is such a poor viewpoint to take! Hostage taking will jump markedly if anyone gives in to these people.

Personally, I think he was killed a couple of weeks ago :(

Thoughts go out to his family and friends who tried so hard for his release.......

Where the hell does luck come into it?

He went off to most dangerous part of the world to work. It's not like they grabbed him whilst popping down to Tescos for a pint of milk is it?

If he couldn't face the ultimate risk, he shouldn't have gone.

Dazza01 08 October 2004 01:02 PM

On local news now (Century 106 fm) foreign office are still trying to confirm reports of his death, family are being kept up to date :(

Ted Maul 08 October 2004 01:04 PM

rubbish - I could get run over by a bus on the way to the shops but I still go. It was his risk and reward.

eClaire 08 October 2004 01:04 PM

Spose you're right Chris.

Tony Blair could have done something :mad:

Chris, very poignant words for me particularly this morning.

just hear on radio that SKY sources have confirmed it. :(

chaos. 08 October 2004 01:07 PM

Hmm shocking.

He had a 23 yr old Thi wife, lived there, he lived damn close to where saddams cronies lived, he was making 20k a month, if he had of been released he would have sold his story to the press to made 1000,000$, likely, I have no sympathy, he should have died with honor like the yanks did.

NEXT

Edcase 08 October 2004 01:10 PM

Lets wait and see, it could just be them getting themselves in the headlines again.

The last couple of days have seemed very positive so it seems odd he has now been murdered.

Yes i agree that Iraq & surrounding area's are dangerous & you take a risk !

But this was a life, the same as you & me

His last few words were broadcasted across the world for all to see, yet with the resources that both countrys have (US & Here), we couldnt even try to save him, they werent interested

Thats the disgrace !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My thoughts go out to his family & friends

S:(

good thinking. thanks for coming.

carl 08 October 2004 01:23 PM

I'm surprised they didn't do it sooner. It was the obvious way to achieve their aims -- cause a public outcry in the UK, hopefully Labour won't get voted in in the next general election then a new government's in place which is more likely to initiate a pull out from Iraq. I know that the Tories supported the war in the first place, but they could spin it as an "out with the old, in with the new" thing.

Of course, the assumes the Iraqi terrorists have a handle on British politics.

I don't like to disillusion you, but that's how you make a conventional bomb (TNT), not a nuclear one. I fail to see how you can "nuke" someone with a conventional bomb.
