From the WSJ Opinion Section by James Taranto, on Dec. 1, 2005:

http://www.opinionjournal.com/best/?id=110007620

"The Christian Peacemaker Teams, the anti-American group four of whose members are being held captive by terrorists, for a year and a half ran an "Adopt-a-Detainee campaign," described on the CPT Web site:

The Adopt-a-Detainee Letter-Writing Campaign, beginning in March 2004, matched individual detainees with congregations, mosques, synagogues, and peace groups in North America and around the world. These groups wrote letters to U.S., Iraqi and other relevant officials on the detainees' behalf. The campaign grew out of CPT's investigation of and reporting on abuses within the U.S.-run detention system in Iraq during the fall of 2003. The Adopt-a-Detainee Letter-Writing Campaign included a total of twenty-seven detainees, nine of whom U.S. officials released during the campaign, ten of whom were still detained at last word, and seven of whom U.S. officials never confirmed as detained (i.e., the "disappeared.")

Why doesn't the CPT try writing letters to the terrorists and see how far that will get them?"

And here is the LINK to the website of these peace activists about their "adopt a detainee"program:

Seems prefectly clear. Clear as Middleeast MUD.
