Makes me wonder how many times this has happened to CNN or BBS
and hasn't been reported.

Good for him but bad for us. Now they have $2 million more to continue their mayhem. I must say, if he were my relative I wouldn't hesitate in giving the ransom. But it's still a victory for them, nonetheless.

a senior leader of one of the groups suspected of the abductions told WND.

I don't doubt it but the source doesn't confirm it to me either.

Well, the going rate now is 2 million for 2 Fox reporters, I wonder how much 2 CNN reporters will go for.

The terror leader, from the Gaza-based Popular Resistance Committees, said his organization's share of the money was used to purchase weapons, which he said would be utilized "to hit the Zionists."

Israel is foolish to allow these newsfolk to stay in Israel and cross over to Gaza or wherever. Let them get to Gaza some other way.

I remember praying every night and waking up to a sick feeling every morning wondering if we would see video of Steve and Olaf being executed that day.

While I do not support governments paying ransoms I understand why Fox did. If they were in my employ I would have done the same.

Jennifer Griffin and company did a phenomenal job in reminding the Palis that they were dependent on the media to tell their story. Since then no journalists have been harmed. That's a good thing.

In that case, pull all the reporters over there and send them back home.

$1 million per reporter, that's reasonable.

You can always count on the liberal MSM to "negotiate" with our enemies.
