The group was willing to cut your head off to achieve their goals. And you suddenly think that the issue is "complex"?!!! We are either witnessing STockholm syndrome or STupidity. One of the two.

In all of these news stories we have never heard about Centanni's family other than his brother. I am wondering if he is even married or has children?

Centanni has said their conversion was forced at gunpoint.

"I have the highest respect for Islam, and I learned a lot of good things about it, but it was something we felt we had to do because they had the guns, and we didn't know what the hell was going on," he said in other reports.

One wonders... when the cameras are off, and it's the end of the day, what do Centanni and Wigg really think about the religion of peace.

Oh well, since it was Centenni who was to be killed, then Olaf could still like those guys.

How nice. Guess in his heart he was blaming the American for his capture.

Could be publicity for selling the 'rights' to the story.

Perhaps. You should know that Rush said on the EIB Network today that he had dinner with the 2 released hostages last night. He didn't mention whether or not Steve ate pork or not.

I wouldn't pay five cents to read the story. And their endless round of appearances is more than exploitative.

"The terrorists have not met my wife," Wiig said. "She is a force to be reckoned with."

Yeah, I'm sure the jihadis said, "By the beard of Allah, praise be upon him, that Anita McNaught woman comes our way! Aieeee! Release the hostages before she roasts our stomachs in hell!"

Baaarrrrrfffffff!!!!

I though Olaf was a stringer, or freelancer for FOX. He is (is he?) typical Eurowimp on these kinds of things.

I hope Steve Centani is not exhibiting such symptoms over the garbage that took them captive.

He said it first. He told Hannity yesterday on his show how he saw it happening and explained how it works.

I'm not going to hold this against him. The Stockholm Syndrome is real. You're thankful for every little mercy and don't want the clock to turn backward.

I feel such sympathy for the Palestinian cause. You know, in my heart...

What on earth is Fox News doing with a cameraman in Gaza or the West Bank that is sympathetic to the "Palestinian Cause?" I would expect Fox to screen for such Pali Sympathizers who taint the coverage against Israel.
