BREAKING, 7 Red Cross workers Kidnapped in Syria

So far details are still sketchy some reports say 6 workers others say 7 members of the Red Cross have been kidnapped inside Syria.

A spokesman for the International Committee of the Red Cross in Damascus says seven of the group's workers have been kidnapped in northern Syria.

Saleh Dabbakeh says gunmen abducted the team near the town of Saraqeb in Idlib province around 11:30 a.m. (0830 GMT) Sunday.

He says six of the people kidnapped are ICRC staff workers and one is a volunteer from the Syrian Red Crescent.

No word yet on the nationality of the workers I will up date this thread as that information becomes public.

There is also as yet no information about how is responsible for this however I am guessing it is the work of the militant group the "Islamic state of of Iraq and Sham", this group was reported only a couple of days ago to have taken large numbers of Syrian civilians hostage in the same province as these Red Cross workers were taken.

According to CNN.

More than 200 civilians -- the vast majority of them women and children -- are still being held hostage by two opposition groups that led the offensive, the rights group said, citing opposition sources. It named the groups as the Islamic State of Iraq and Sham (ISIS), which is affiliated with al Qaeda in Iraq, and Jaish al-Muhajireen wal-Ansar.

This could get very interesting if these 7 (or 6) workers turn out to be western however western hostages have been taken before by extremist groups such as Domenico Quirico, who was held for 150 days by the rebels, so this is not with out precedent.

interesting that the acronym for the possible group involved is ISIS.

anybody who has studied the mystery schools knows the significance of this. anybody who does not please refer to bill coopers series on mystery Babylon via you-tube.

ISIS was the moon God, she is the origin of the crescent moon icon depicted in Islam.

Not surprised that an area which is infested with Islamist terrorists, westerners are kidnapped. Syria should be off limits to all because of this infestation.

I pray those Red Cross workers are unharmed and are returned safely,... but we all know better dont we?
