2005-05-26 |
![]() The sheik has offered to swap places with Wood, a California resident who suffers from a serious heart condition, in a statement expected to be broadcast soon on Middle Eastern television, spokesman Keysar Trad said. "For the mufti of Australia to make that offer _ it's certainly a very attractive offer to any group, to hold a very prominent person and let their captive free so he can seek medical treatment," Trad told Nine Network television. "They promised to set him free before without these conditions but the mufti's now trying to force their hand and trying to get them to make a move and release Mr. Wood," he said. |

#1 Hostage swaps tend to have the same fatal problems as ransom drops. But wow, the Aussie Mufti. Why, with him, the murderous pigs could issue valid fatwas! For Australia, anyway... |
