Kidnapping of Beverly Giesbrecht Almost Two Years After
on July 25th, 2010 at 11:56 amNot much happening in story about Canadian “wannabe freelance journalist” kidnapped in Pakistan, but that doesn’t mean it never happened, right?
In a couple of months time it will be two years since Jihad Unspun’s, Beverly Giesbrecht aka Khadija Abdul Qahaar, was apparently snatched (at gunpoint I presume) by Islamic militants in Pakistan. Her captors would be those same f**king armed and dangerous knobs she went to great lengths for, to extol the virtues of Islam for them and their jihad cause, and you know, maybe egg them on a little via her website before she was “kidnapped”.
Oh yeah, and apparently she’s a freelance journalist, though this sick f**ker (that would be me, the blogger responsible for this post, right Mary Dilwell?) has yet to hear of anybody coming forward claiming she was working on a story for them when she was “apparently kidnapped” in the Bannu district of Pakistan back in 2008.
Nope, nada, not a f**king word about that, which makes me kinda wonder about you know, the “whole story”. I’m not saying that Giesbrecht wasn’t working on a story or that she wasn’t kidnapped by those she sympathized with, but…
Glen Cooper, he, if he thought I was implying that this Giesbrecht story was the ramblings of an asshole like myself that is, would probably take offence to what I’ve said about his long-time friend here in Crooked in Canada since “her story” first broke, especially given that he recently made a statement in which he claimed he was involved in the negotiations with who I am assuming was, her captors. Like seriously, why would her captors or the Pakistani and Canadian governments for that matter, want or let him be a part of such of negotiations. He’s a nobody; would carry little influence in such matters.
Hmm, really, he was in on the negotiations, eh? I wonder about that too, but that doesn’t mean I think he’s feeding whoever will listen to him, a bullshit story. I’m thinking he might be trying to, or is, cashing in on his lifelong friend’s misfortune if as I said, she really has been kidnapped.
It has been ten months since Giesbrecht’s story fell off the grid, and during that ten months, not a f**king word from her captors, who by the way threatened to cut off her head if their ransom demands weren’t met by their March 2009 deadline. The deadline has come and gone, and there really hasn’t been much follow-up by anybody since then.
Wonder why.
Who knows, maybe her skull is rolling around somewhere in Pakistan gathering dust, and nobody has stumbled upon it yet. Yeah, she might be dead, although I highly doubt it. You just never know though.
Liberal consular affairs critic Dan McTeague says, “It would be very difficult for Canadians to assume this isn’t a case that has gone cold for the past 10 months,” while Cooper says his friend may be regarded in some circles as not worth the trouble of working to free because of her brand of journalism, which he acknowledges was sympathetic to militants. “There’s no question some elements in the Pakistan government have that point of view,” Cooper said. Aah huh, and there are elements in Canada who think Giesbrecht orchestrated her own kidnapping to help militants raise money for their jihad.
Mr. Cooper, she might been trying to put one over on naive Canadians, those Canadians willing to part with their own money in exchange for the freedom of a woman who sympathized with the Taliban.
Giesbrecht was foolhardy if she went into the volatile region without the backing of a news organization or government. An American journalist said that Giesbrecht would have to be insane to try anything like that. Should I say he implied as much maybe?
I guess you could say she was the maker of her own fate, a really dumb one at that, if of course any of her kidnapping story is true.
Remember, I’m not saying that it isn’t, but I definitely have my doubts about it.
So, it’s almost two years on and Canada’s foreign affairs department says that Canada is continuing to work with Pakistan to seek Giesbrect-Qahaar’s safe release. That’s it, that’s all they had to say about the 56-year-old woman’s plight if like I said, she has in fact been kidnapped.

So Canada, WTF is Going On with the Beverly Giesbrecht Story
Bev was a flameout penny stock promoter in the 1990′s in the wild Vancouver Stock Exchange days. She operated fun sexy scam shell companies like Ultra Glow (sp) (Afterglow??) Cosmetics and numerous failed penny mining stocks and failed penny stock investment publications.
She raised money for these phony ventures until she was even run out of the VSE realm and the OTC (Over the Counter Market in the US) as well. Jihad fund raising (magazine publicity version only you suggest) wouldn’t be far off for this well passed her prime piece of work.
My (albeit amateur) theory is that she was pulling the scam on behalf of the Taliban for the dough..when that didn’t pan out, the Muzzies quietly off’d her because she was more of a liability than an asset at that point.
I am sure her skull is propping up a Koran in Waziristan as we speak..
