Al Qaeda Kills and Butchers 3 Foreign Female Hostages in Yemen

The audacity, the barbarism, the cold blooded inhumanity of al Qaeda contines and this time it is seen in Yemen where three women hostages of the al Qaeda network in that country were found today - all dead, all mutilated. The three hostages, two German nurses and one South Korean teacher were all kidnapped while on a picnic in Yemen on Friday. And it gets worse, because six other foreigners were at that picnic and disappeared at the same time - one has to wonder if they haven't suffered the same fate.

Here's some of the details from the gory story over at Breitbart:

Shepherds found the mutilated bodies on Monday of two German nurses and a South Korean teacher who were kidnapped while picnicking in an area of Yemen known as a hideout for al-Qaida.
Experts said the killings bore the hallmarks not of local tribesmen but of jihadist militants who had returned home after fighting in conflicts in Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere.
The dead women disappeared in the remote northern province of Saada Friday while on an outing with six other foreigners, including a German doctor, his wife and their three young children. The whereabouts of the six were unknown, the Yemeni government said.

"I think that it would have to be outside sources" that carried out the attack, said Magnus Ranstorp, a terrorism expert at the Swedish National Defense College, noting that the killings,
including reports that the bodies were mutilated, bear the hallmarks of al-Qaida.

When you picture this scene, stumbled upon by the Yemen sheperds, you have to wonder about a couple of things: first, what al Qaeda leader would claim responsibility for this and how would he explain the mutilation and secondly, I want to know how long it will be until some of the womens' groups in America protest loudly about this atrocity. It won't happen, will it? For years now, we have seen the muslim jihadis given a free pass for every atrocity towards women of this world and why is that? It's simple - everyone in the West is too scared to call it out in fear of insulting Islam. Well, we aren't here at Holger Awakens - it's an ideology of murder, of torture and human abuse. We have women's groups in America who will protest equal pay for equal work in America but won't utter a single word when it comes to a woman keeping her life or not leaving this world with a mutilation in her last few hours.

Al Qaeda and the Taliban have shown consistently that they are simply pure evil. They follow a regimen of evil outlined for them and they, being the most righteous, follow it to a tee. And so I say, there is nothing less we can do with either al Qaeda or the Taliban than to completely eradicate them from the face of the Earth. All of them. Every last one.

3 foreign women dead in Yemen, al-Qaida suspected

SAN'A, Yemen (AP) - Shepherds found the mutilated bodies on Monday of two German nurses and a South Korean teacher who were kidnapped while picnicking in an area of Yemen known as a hideout for al-Qaida.
Experts said the killings bore the hallmarks not of local tribesmen but of jihadist militants who had returned home after fighting in conflicts in Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere.
The dead women disappeared in the remote northern province of Saada Friday while on an outing with six other foreigners, including a German doctor, his wife and their three young children. The whereabouts of the six were unknown, the Yemeni government said.

Yemeni authorities announced a state of high alert in the area and were "conducting extensive searches and investigations," according to a government statement. Besides the German family, a British man was also missing. They all worked for World Wide Services Foundation, a Dutch aid group helping with medical care in the province.
The incident is the latest attack against foreigners in this impoverished Arab nation on the tip of the Arabian peninsula where al-Qaida has a firm foothold in its remote areas.
The government blamed the kidnapping on a Shiite rebel group that has been leading an uprising in the province for the past several years, but the group denied it had anything to do with it. Initially, Yemeni security officials had reported all nine were killed, but the government later said six were still missing.
Nearly all past fatal attacks against foreigners in Yemen have been by Islamist militants.
"I think that it would have to be outside sources" that carried out the attack, said Magnus Ranstorp, a terrorism expert at the Swedish National Defense College, noting that the killings, including reports that the bodies were mutilated, bear the hallmarks of al-Qaida.
The killings "represent a nasty turning point in Yemen," he said.
A tribal leader in the area also blamed al-Qaida for the kidnapping. He spoke on condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the situation.
In the past, tribesmen have kidnapped foreigners to wrest concessions on local issues from the government—including ransoms, the release of jailed relatives or even promises to build local infrastructure. But they usually treated hostages well and released them unharmed. Past abductions by al-Qaida, however, have ended with hostages' deaths.
"There has obviously been a shift in recent years, and I think you can definitely attribute that to jihadis," said Dan Mulvenna, a counterterrorism expert with the Alexandria, Va.-based Center for Counterintelligence and Security Studies.
Many Yemenis who left the country to fight in Afghanistan and Iraq have returned in recent years and taken up arms against the government using the brutal tactics they learned abroad.
"Certainly there are Yemenis who went to do jihad and have returned, and there are reports that some have left the battlefield in Iraq and some have left Afghanistan ... and there are also foreign jihadis," Mulvenna said.
