If Engel was circumcised he may as well eat the cyanide pill now.

Engel is a Jew by birth. Don't know if he's renounced it however.

Because he is a human being you - b@st@rd!

Oh grow up. You sound like a sniveling, handwringing liberal. If he's a Christian, God is looking after him. If he dies it's okay -- I'll see him in Heaven. If he's not a Christian, he'd better find Christ fast, so he won't have to worry. If he doesn't find Jesus, he's got much bigger problems to worry about, and so do we. He's an active reporter for NBC that makes him one of Satan's minions. I'll not worry about one of those.

WTF? After Daniel Pearl (Jew) and Ambassador Stevens (gay) and Lara Logan (female) . . .Is NBC looking to seal al qaeda’s jihad trifecta by sending a Jewish journo into an Islamic war zone?
When will the left-media be held accountable for their willful blindness - callously foisted upon staff as well as the general public?

Could be something like Steve Centani and his camera operator went through in Iraq. My belief, is that they converted to Islam and were set free.

LOL That's because most all the folks who write for SOF magazine are former professional soldiers with combat time. They know how to survive in a war zone. Most will find their way to a weapon (probably a handgun or maybe a shorty SMG + sp mags and ammo) within moments of transiting the border. They know how to move about and be unobtrusive and they know how to spot an impending ambush and most important of all, they know how to escape and evade in the event hostilities overtake them personally. In other words, they're Sheepdogs and not sheep.

Centanni also had Middle East expert correspondent Jennifer Griffin working the back alleys to find and negotiate for Centanni.

Does NBC have the same back-channel talks going on?

I can’t help but think that what often is a strong sense of entitlement and a naive and childish American-leftist ideology common among these folks gets them into trouble in the real world.

One of Mrs WBill's college roommates fit this to a 'T'.

Last I heard, she was headed to (Iran? Iraq?) to "help underprivileged children".

Did I mention that she was white, (very) liberal, mostly anti-American (anti-conservative), upper-middle class, and hadn't been much of anywhere other than suburbia, a few spring break vacations, and a couple of colleges? Poor girl would last for about 10 minutes in a hostile environment.

The sad part was that her parents were a couple of (white, liberal, upper-middle class) college profs, and encouraged this sort of foolish behavior. Her friends were desperately trying to talk her out of going, I dunno whatever happened to her. I've not read about her in a newspaper, so I guess she's OK.

Pleasant enough girl, brunette and pretty, just an utter fool. Noble thoughts won't get her very far in life. She'd be better off catching a husband and finding a charity here in the states to advance with his money.....

Middle East expert correspondent Jennifer Griffin working the back alleys...

Just like all the other hookers. If she looks like Jennifer Logan, she might find the same guys to interview that Logan did.... and I wouldn't wish that on anybody, especially not somebody's daughter. But these liberals had better learn some survival skills fast oh wait, that's a direct oxymoron. Well, one way or another the gene pool is bound to get a little cleaner.

http://gawker.com/5969029/richard-engel-is-missing-in-syria-nbc-news-enforces-news-blackout

Excerpt:
“But NBC News has been asking every reporter who inquires about the report to participate in a news blackout. It has also taken to Twitter and asked people who repeated the Turkish reports there to take them down. You can see here a screengrab of the Twitter account @NBCComm asking a Twitter user who had mentioned the reports to urgently call a cell phone number (that account has since been taken down).”

“NBC News declined to comment for the record about Engel’s whereabouts, but asked Gawker not to report what it characterized as “rumors” about Engel’s current status.”
****************************************************

I would think they are negotiating.

I thought that Jennifer Griffin was largely credited with helping to get Centanni and Wiig freed. It was nothing like what happened to Logan. Also, in 2006, the environment was much different.

Maybe you have Jen Griffin mixed up with someone else. She is one of the good guys.

Do you think Lara Logan learned anything?

From what I understand of the extent of her injuries and have seen of her interviews since, I seriously doubt that she has not.

Maybe. Is she a journalist working for a major network? If not then I am confuzzled and I stand corrected and apologetic. But if she's a journalist working for a 'Net or major paper, then she's not a "good guy." They're all whores who've sold their souls.

Really? You are talking about a fellow human made in the image of Christ. Christ shed His blood for Richard Engle as well as all of us. And you can’t even be civil when he is missing and likely in grave danger? Try your tude at DU. It plays better there
