A Turkish hostage and an Iraqi Kurdish hostage have been beheaded in Iraq, the video shown on an Islamic website. The Ansar al-Sunnah Army have claimed responsibility; they are also believed to be behind the brutal slaying of 12 Nepalese and 3 Kurds in August.

A written statement appearing on the Internet video accused the Iraqi Kurdish translator, Luqman Hussein, of participating in raids with U.S. troops in the Ramadi area. A second statement said the Turkish contractor, Maher Kemal, was working for the Americans at an air base north of the capital.

Hussein said he worked with U.S. forces at an agricultural site in Ramadi and was captured en route to Baghdad, about 70 miles east of Ramadi.

The statement said Kemal was abducted Friday on the highway between Mosul and Baghdad.

The videotape warned foreigners against coming to Iraq "for making cheap earthly profits by being allies with the Crusaders in their war on Islam."

Another video was aired on Al Arabiya TV showing a hooded man identified as as Turkish truck driver. A group claiming to be the Tawhid and Jihad are threatening his execution.
