#1 Still falling for the immigrant visa ploy. Too bad they're unwilling to make their own country a place worth living in.

#3 When you think about it - not a bad negotiating ploy. Wonder if we have ever used it in kidnappings over there? Even though these thugs want to kill us, I'll bet they would all love to emigrate to America. Once here we can keep them out of harm's (ours) way but at least we get some of the people back. You may believe this to be naive but look at the Atta 19 and how they behaved while they were here - it was like a parallel universal paradise to them.

#4 I wonder where the guy will live. If he can speak French, I'm sure the Quebec seperatists can use him. They could certainly use a man of experience.

#5 Maybe this is why the UN would rather talk than do anything else; if you're nice enough to terrorists, maybe they'll do as you want them to.
