I was wondering what Terry Anderson thought about all this. I suspected his reaction would be as he's stated in this article.

Has anyone even thought about whether the demands of the kidnappers of Daniel Pearl — for the release of Pakistanis held in Cuba and of a Taliban official in American custody — are just? Nope. Nor should they.

I hope LOTS of people pay attention to this. It comes from a man who's been there, literally! He knows what these terrorists are, and the are NOT freedom fighters, they are THUGS!

If every one reading this thread does not send me $10 in the mail today, Pearl's kidnappers will have won!

The Paki fanatics are some of the dimist radicals on this planet. These are the folks that brought us hundreds of giant protest posters featuring Osama and his "evil sidekick" Bert from Seasame Street. And who could forget the idiot who tried to set a cheesy, handmade American flag on fire, but wound up bursting into flames himself. Many of their Afghanistan volunteers were the first to surrender or skidaddle back home once they realized that fighting against the US wasn't all that it was cracked up to be. Their spelling leaves something to be desired, too...

I feel sorry for Pearl and hope for the best. Maybe his idiot captors will botch the execution. Even if the evil morons do succeed in murdering Pearl, such a pathetic act will do little for their cause. Anyone with half a brain could see the outcome.
