BAGHDAD, Iraq - An Internet posting claimed Saturday that an al-Qaida-linked group has killed British hostage Kenneth Bigley. The claim could not immediately be confirmed, and Britain's Foreign Office described the site where it appeared as "discredited."


Bigley was kidnapped Sept. 16 with two Americans, Eugene Armstrong and Jack Hensley, who have since been beheaded. They were all taken from their home in Baghdad by the Tawhid and Jihad group of Jordanian terror mastermind Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.


The Web site where the posting appeared has often carried messages from Zarqawi's followers, including gruesome video that showed Hensley and Armstrong being killed. It also showed video on Wednesday of Bigley, 62, begging for his life.


But it is not as prominent as other sites that have aired similar content, and some of its earlier claims have been picked up from elsewhere. It has also carried messages that appeared not to be true, including two shaky claims that two Italian aid workers missing since Sept. 7 were killed.

2. My prayers go out to his family and for Tony Blair's soul.

3. Of course it's "discredited"

Otherwise, as his family have said "The blood will be on Bliar's hands"

Anyone know which site?

AIJ Alom: Is there any point praying for something which doesn't exist (Bliar's Soul)?
