Ted, France in crisis as Iraqis threaten to kill hostages over headscarf ban

Killing hostages over a mundane dress code? I don't buy it. There's something else going on here, but I can't imagine what that might be.


They captured two French journalists......they needed an excuse to do so. The headscarf issue works because the Muslims in France made a big stink about it. Women without scarves violates a tenet of the Islam faith.
