The media voice of the global jihad, Al Jazeera, showed another disgusting video from their beloved holy warriors today: Kidnapped American Shown on Video.

BAGHDAD, Iraq - An Indiana man, scared and clutching his passport to his chest, was shown at gunpoint on a videotape aired by Al-Jazeera television Wednesday, two days after he was kidnapped from a water treatment plant near Baghdad. The station said he pleaded for his life and urged U.S. troops to quickly withdraw from Iraq.

Jeffrey Ake — president and CEO of Equipment Express, a company that manufacturers bottled water equipment — is the latest of more than 200 foreigners seized in Iraq in the past year. The resident of LaPorte, Indiana, was kidnapped around noon Monday.

Al-Jazeera didn’t air audio of the video, but said the man asked the U.S. government to begin talks with the Iraqi resistance and save his life. No group immediately claimed responsibility, and there was no way to authenticate the video.

 Frank says:

Interviewer:
The notion of a "guitar solo" has preconceptions based on it; people automatically refute it because it's supposed to be self-indulgent or "for musicians." It's almost like things become iconographic and somehow lose their value for outsiders.

Zappa:
Well, whose fault is that? That's what writers do. Musicians don't do that. The average person doesn't sit around thinking about the "iconographic problems of a guitar solo." -- Interview for Musician magazine, by Matt Resnicoff, November 1991. Reprinted in July 1995 Issue.
