Move in the right direction. Shame others have lost their lives. I bet the papers will also be full of the ex hostage Terry Waite.

I was very surprised to hear this as I thought he had been killed like the others. It's great news for his family, I hope he is well and that he doesn't find adjusting to 'normality' too difficult.

Good that he has been released at last.
It was confirmed on trhe Radio 4 Today prog that he had been held in Iran, & the terrorist group which held him & killed the others is based in Iran with at the very least the support of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard & the administration there

I note that he was working for Bearingpoint who were named as the #2 War profiteer in 2004 by Ralph Nader's organisation for their 'work' in Iraq. Rolling Eyes

Yeah, & Ralph Nader has been noted for his support of suicide bombers & was allegedly funding by Iran, which is sponsoring the terrorists in Iraq
Go figure

Source for your statement about Ralph Nader please, Clive? By the way, there were no Al Quada terrorists in Iraq before the US/UK invasion though they are there now because of it. Rolling Eyes
