If it was one of the captors who aided him, then it shows that at least HE had an ounce/residue of humanity within him.
Awful lot of men in that house.
War is hell. Deal with it.
One wonders if these idiots would think Nazi Germany would be safer during WWII???
It also indicates that the terrorists don't have much unity and loyalty within the ranks- typical of people in depserate situations.
IOW, if they thought they were winning they would be more loyal. They know full well what he was like when they join up- so I doubt sympathy plays much of a role in helping people to escape.
I remember someone suggesting that GPS devices be given or implanted in inidividuals or military decoys in these high risk areas,and then when they are abducted, the miliary could hone in and wipe out the bad guys. Makes sense to me. I wonder why this isn't being attempted ?
"Kidnappers beheaded British hostage Kenneth Bigley after twice releasing videos in which he wept and pleaded with Prime Minister Tony Blair for his life. A U.S. official said Friday there was credible information that Bigley had tried to escape with the aid of one of his captors.
The attempt failed and Bigley was killed a short time later as was shown on a video "
Too bad he wasn't successful. I suspect his captor met the same fate.
I feel especially bad about this man because he knew what was ahead of him. It's been reported he witnessed his two friends beheaded. How firghtening to know, YOU'RE NEXT and waiting for it.

I see your point but most people wouldn't want that kind of privacy invasion. Plus they don't want to believe it could happen to them.
BTT
The GPS idea came from a friend of mine (not a FReeper).
May God Bless And Welcome These Murdered Into His Realm!May His Justice be Visited Upon The Murderers!!AMEN!!!!
Not a Bad Idea!!!
NO ONE--"Brother, Cousin, 'In-Law,' Son, Daughter, Father, Wife, Grandparent, Cousin, etc--" is INNOCENT!!
The ANIMALS who have Murdered These People are of SUCH EVIL that Their Families MUST Know of Their Guilt!!
There is Virtually NO possibility that the Intimate Families of these Psychopaths are Unaware of Their Evil!
In Order to Control & "Bring to Justice" these Psychopaths, Their Families should be placed "At Risk!!"
IAW, the "Families" of these Psychopaths ought to be "At Risk" until the Psychopaths Surrender to the Appropriate Authorities!!
"You Threaten to Kill My Children,,--I will Destroy your Wife, Children, & Grandchildren----"
There can be NO COMPROMISE until the Psychopath accepts TOTAL SURRENDER.
Doc
The old "wedding" story again. Those "weddings" just seem to keep gettng in the way of bombs.
The British Governments unofficial response to Ken Bigley's death:-
Abu Musab al-Zarqawi the person believed to be responsible for Ken Bigley's death and others is now found himself to be a dead man walking, it's come to light that "orders" have been issued by the British government to and I quote there words "Nail the bastards!!" staff at the British Intelligence centre at GCHQ in Cheltenham working on this issue with priority are now reported to be in reciept of info that locates the area where Al-Zarqawi and his murderous animals are hiding and as such a crack unit of the elite SAS accompanied by the US Delta Force have already been dispatched and are on the ground combing the area in there man hunt to carry out the request to "neutralise" Al-Zarqawi and his associates
I think you can say al-Zarqawi's murderous actions has successfully pi**ed a few people off up in high places !!!!
Under these kinds of circumstances it might not be a bad idea.
Three weeks of sheer terror. Poor guy.
Good, get em before they breed.
