The short explanation of this alert was:
Four members of the Christian Peacemaker Team (CPT) in Baghdad were taken on November 26, 2005 and are being held in Iraq. Those responsible have once again issued a statement demanding all Iraqi prisoners in US and Iraqi detention centers to bereleased. These four are in addition to others also taken hostage.
CPT is an ecumenical peacemaking agency associated with the Church of the Brethren, Mennonites and Quakers. Its members are deeply committed to non-violent peacemaking and are willing to put their lives on the line to make it happen.
The four workers are: Tom Fox, 54, Clearbrook, Virginia, Norman Kember, 74, London, James Loney, 41, Toronto, Canada, Harmeet Singh Sooden, 32, a Canadian. More information on them are found at the Christian Peacemaker Teams website: www.cpt.org.
Some 15,000 thousand of you have signed on to the following interfaith open letter which has been initially signed by several religious leaders. We will once again send this letter and its signatures to Al Jazeera TV which is the likely media channel for reaching those responsible, each day this week with the list of signatories. Please sign this if you have not already done so, and forward it to as many of your colleagues and friends as possible.
