The Forgotten Hostages
This is what happens when your kidnapping of 4 untelegenic guys get upstaged in the media by the kidnapping of a pretty, young girl reporter; you have to act like the UN does routinely and send out a cry for atention type notice that you really, really mean it about the next deadline, and you're not just kidding around.
I don't mean to be flip about the real tragedy of being kidnapped in Iraq. We all know how ruthless the militant islamicist terrorist are over there. I pray for the safe return of all the hostages; but I have always been suspicious of the circumstances surrounding the abduction of these four Christian peace workers, and what started as tragedy is beginning to sound like farce.
