#1 Nothing to lose, arm or track the money, boom, hostage was already dead.

#2 "The hostage-takers are even trying to sell the remains, it could not be more despicable," French Defense Minister Gerard Longuet told the i-TELE news network.

Let's wait and see if some "anonymous" entity ends up paying for the body before making statements like this.

#3 Perhaps the French would be willing to subcontract, to get more bang for their Franc.

#4 I'm sure Israel would be willing to destroy half the Somali coast for the appropriate fee. It would probably be cheaper, but less satisfying, to pay the ransom. Personally, I'd like to see the use of napalm on a few of these a$$wipes, myself. I understand crispy critters can't get into paradise and don't get virgins. If that's not correct, it's a great rumor to start... The US is p$$$-poor at propaganda war, and we're losing ground because of it.
