It's like a family member has been snatched. No...no. Steve Centanni impressed me as such a nice guy, not a drama queen like Shep or Whorealdo.

I know... I've been thinking the same thing all day... I'm very worried about him. I just cannot believe a good guy like Steve Centanni has been abducted by evil terrorists over there...

Prayers for Steve's and his camera man's safe return...

NZ Diplomats to Gaza for Talks on Journalist Hostages
10:41 Aug 15, '06 / 21 Av 5766


(IsraelNN.com) New Zealand diplomats are heading to Gaza for talks aimed at securing the release of two kidnapped journalists from the Fox News network. They will be working through the offices of British diplomats inasmuch as New Zealand has no direct contacts in the area.

NZ Prime Minister Helen Clark said her government is “very concerned” about the safety of 36 year old camerman Olaf Wiig, a NZ national. He and 60 year old American reporter Steve Centanni were parked near the headquarters of the Palestinian Authority security services when they were abducted.

The two journalists were accompanied by a bodyguard when two trucks carrying a group of armed terrorists boxed in their car and pulled them out of the vehicle.



Centanni is 60? Wow. Doesn't look it.

Silence is deafening on any progress for Steve's safe return. I was so hoping we'd hear something today.

How horrible for his family and I can only image the fear this man is going through.
