There is a bit of me that wants my government to go in and get these people back with utmost force. I don't care about the community worker thing - unless they have commited a crime abroad, our nationals should be protected by our government wherever. -

"We are in a position to confirm reports of three Britons missing in the Occupied Territories," a spokesman said. "At this stage we have no further details."

Occupied territories? The Israelis have left Gaza, it is no longer occupied. That dog won't hunt anymore.

"Three British citizens were kidnapped as they entered the Gaza Strip from Egypt through the Rafah crossing on Wednesday, Palestinian witnesses and security officials said."

...another swift move by the Islamists: kidnapping their own friends.

Most of the British press (which we can't post here) will probably construe the event as a plot by the "Zionists."

Incredibly naive and stupid on the Brits part.

It is occupied, by the Islamofacists. It's rightful owner, Israel, gave it up.

I have this strong feeling that if they are kept apart from the Israelis they are going to end up at war with each other.
