US firm spread hostage video - Silicon Valley Land Surveying Incorporated


Berlin - Video images of a US engineer taken hostage in Saudi Arabia, possibly by the al-Qaeda network, could have been put on the internet via a US firm based in California, Der Spiegel magazine reported on Thursday.

The video was released on Tuesday and shows relatively high-quality film of hostage Paul Johnson, who kidnappers from a group called "al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula" have threatened to kill by Friday.

The origin of the video was traced to Silicon Valley Land Surveying Incorporated, a California land surveying and mapping company, said Spiegel online, the internet service for the respected German weekly.


...and the pun isn't even meant to be humorous in the least! :(

4. And the press continuing Cheney's lies even when reporting this horrible
event.
from the article:
American Nicholas Berg, a businessman, was beheaded last month by his captors in Iraq (news - web sites), and his last moments later appeared on a videotape posted on an al-Qaida-linked Web site. U.S. officials say al-Qaida-linked Muslim militant Abu Musab al-Zarqawi may have been Berg's killer. (linked by whom???)
