A hostage held alongside Mr Wood [recently released Aussie ex-hostage] has hired bounty hunters to track down his former captors, promising to eliminate them one by one. Ulf Hjertstrom, a Swede who was held for several weeks with Mr Wood, was freed by his kidnappers on May 30. He has since said he shared information with US and Iraqi troops that led to the Australian's release. Now, he wants to find those responsible. "I have now put some people to work to find these bastards," he said yesterday. "I invested about $50,000 so far and we will get them one by one."

Shouldn't he be trying to understand them, instead?

I think the US should use this approach. We'd save ton's of money.

seriously...fight fire with fire- winning heads and minds will only impress a small few. Unmercifully kicking their a$$es will get everyone's attention.

Between this story and the one about the woman who set her daughter's rapist on fire, I think I'm having my BEST NEWS DAY EVER.

Tsk tsk, how politically incorrect. I hope the bounty hunters get the ones responsible - and a few more terrorists, as well.
To: muawiyah
Once this thing is over we have to create a foundation that finances tracking down any and all terrorists in Iraq or anywhere else who have ever killed or injured Americans....like the Israeli, did after '72 Munich..too bad, the Liberals and other Eco-terrorists, would have a "hissy fit" over it and demand it be shut down.."lest We hurt the Terrorists' Fweelings..."

I'm betting the Swedish government arrests him and charges him with attempted murder.
