Must have been freedom fighters.
But this can't be, says the reporter. Why...these guys are peaceful, religious rebels! They're insurgents fighting against the imperial Americans and Israelis. They'll just share some goat cheese with me and I'll be on my way.
Will CNN broadcast his beheading?
I wonder --- an American official delivers an ultimatum to Syria a few days ago --- car bomb erases one hamas leader yesterday(?) and we have ....
Who is replacing our useless CIA on these covert jobs?
Will a replacement be heading to Iraq?
Huh?
Of course Hamas condemed it.
CNN has been on their side since the beginning.
Dan Rather would have free reign in that region!!
John Kerry could run naked in the valleys of terroristville.
they forgot Wolfy!!!
I recommend dan blather. Time for him to switch networks anyway.
I was hoping it was anti-Christiane Amanpour. I hate that skank.
That's what I was wondering.
What?! No way.
The Liberal reporter gimps always claim that the Israel's enemy are nothing more than freedom fighters.
They would never take somebody hostage.....
Its not like they are terrorists...
(sarcasm)
>>CNN producer abducted in Gaza<<
Sucks to be him.
dont forget not to offer any ransom money
The bloodthirsty radical groups are splintering and starting to eat their own in a sibling rivalry for power, fame and $$$$$ (like Cat Stevens' charitable donations). HA HA HA HA
why don't they ever abduct lawyers?
Oh dear. Prayers for him/her. They will need them.
A friend sent word just a few minutes ago that Arafat knows where he is, and that the abducters were probably working for Islamic Jihad or Hamas. The friend also said that the abductee is a very loyal Israeli citizen.
The Islamsists don't like CNN, either, as it is not enough like Al-Jazeera (or even worse) for their liking. Being worldwide, CNN has been catering news to the best of its ability to Europe, the Middle East, etc. Maybe CNN is arriving at a turning point and will choose more in an anti-terrorist direction with terminology, etc. The media can't please everyone, and some of the various media outlets will begin to choose sides more. We'll see.
