#2 Arroyo may have saved the Filipino, yet lost her honor. The hostage appears to have been released.

#3 In the immortal words of the Monty Python minstrel:

Brave Sir Robin ran away,
Bravely ran away, away.
When danger reared its ugly head, he bravely turned his tail and fled.
Yes, brave Sir Robin turned about
And gallantly, he chickened out.
Bravely taking to his feet,
He beat a very brave retreat,
Bravest of the brave, Sir Robin.

#4 .com: The hostage appears to have been released.

Filipino officials are making this claim. However, given the tendency of the Philippines government to overpromise and underdeliver, I would take that statement with a healthy dose of salt. Chances are that the hostage will be killed, and Filipino troops will withdraw, anyway.
