Heartbreaking

From today's Iraqi Press Monitor:

HANDICAPPED RALLY IN SUPPORT OF KIDNAPPED AID WORKER (Al-Mada) – Hundreds of handicapped who have received aid from the charity organization Care have called for the release of Margaret Hassan, the Care leader kidnapped on October 19. In a public demonstration, the handicapped – some of them in wheelchairs – held up large pictures of Hassan, who has been an activist with Care in Iraq since 1992. One placard said "Margaret is not the British government".
(Al-Mada is issued daily by Al-Mada institution for Media, Culture, and Arts.)
