Perhaps it might be more poignant to remember that more than one man's life is at risk here.

Whilst I appreciate the sentiments of 'should have known better' I would ask people to remember how they have said that to their children and adults, or had it said to them. Rarely did it end in a life potentially being taken.

To wish, or rationalise Kember and his colleagues dead is to be no better than Saddam Hussain himself.

How would you feel if it were you and you survived and read these comments??

Then again, would you be brave enough to stand up for what you believe in?

Actually, from what I understand, this particular group was very conscious of the risks they were taking. They've been in Iraq since before the war began and are one of the last NGOs remaining in the country. Also, they have plenty of past experience in other war-torn regions of the world. It's hard to imagine that they weren't already very well aware of precisely how dangerous Iraq had become.

I dunno, I think of them more as hard-core war correspondents than anything. They know the risks when they go in but make a conscious decision that the need to document the truth outwieghs any personal risks that they may face. To be perfectly honest, that was also the spirit of a lot of the Allied forces during World War 2, although I doubt this particular organization would appreciate the otherwise laudable comparison.

Actually I'm sceptical. This might be a ploy for the peace-niks to get Taken and then ransomned for millions. A back handed way to fund the terrorists.

We should ensure that not one penny is paid for these traitors. Once the jihadis realize that no money is coming they will let them go. Even better they could behead them on TV. The only way we loose is if we pay.

I have to admit being less than fully sympathetic, here. These people got involved with this by under-estimating the level of evil that we face. They figured, as self-labeled 'peace activists' tend to, that that our enemy can be negotiated with. They're now learning the cost of not listening to the 'war mongers' back home.
