While he is still alive there is a small, almost inconsiderable amount of hope, despite the fact that the other two hostages have been killed. I know that everyone in Britain is hoping that Kenneth Bigley is releases by his captors in Iraq, but in my opinion this is not very likely.

It saddens me that two Americans and a Brit have been taken hostage over a political issue that has occurred in France. It just goes to show that these terrorists are not doing this for any particular reason other than they can.

The ITV luchtime news today showed a reporter outside the house of commons talking about Tony Blair. He said Tony Blair is a very religious man and must be wondering where God is right now. I found this a very ironic statement. Kenneth Bigley went to Iraq to help Iraqi people move on after the war and this is his reward. To be brutally murdered in the most horrific manner imaginable.
