Bigley gets Irish Passport

Reuters:

Ireland has granted British hostage Ken Bigley a passport following calls from his family who hope that stressing his Irish connections will persuade his kidnappers in Iraq to release him.
"Mr. Kenneth Bigley's family has asked for an Irish passport to be issued in order to help convince his kidnappers of his Irish citizenship," Foreign Affairs Minister Dermot Ahern said in a statement.
Apparently the only Jew the terrorists like is Mel Brooks. Terrorists to World:"We'll kill the Sand Ni**ers and the Ch*nks, but we don't want the Irish!"
