A previously unheard of Palestinian group, the Holy Jihad Brigades, claimed responsibility on Wednesday for kidnapping a Fox News cameraman and correspondent, Al-Jazeera satellite TV reported.
American correspondent Steve Centanni, 60, and cameraman Olaf Wiig, 36, of New Zealand were kidnapped Aug. 14 from their TV van near the Palestinian security services headquarters in Gaza City. Although Palestinian militant groups have often seized foreigners, including members of the media, this is the longest any have been held.

The longer they have been held, the worse I feel it is for the hostages. I pray I am wrong.

Ditto, eyespysomething. I'm a tad relieved to hear that someone is finally claiming responsibility because prior to today, I was thinking that Centanni was probably already dead.

I wonder if they would take Mike Wallace and Katie Couric in exchange.

I doubt any screaming, wailing and gnashing of teeth will occur over any FOX reporters. Had they been cBSNBCNNPBSABBBC reporters, mass demonstrations would have erupted and 24/7 news coverage blaming Bush.

good thing I am not in control...
I would release the prisoners...after I infected them with some terrible disease that took 72 hours to show symptoms and become contagous....
To: Halls
Just now, now Fox says that Al Jezeera will release a tape of the two. Two are in good health, per reporterrete.

Have they offered any proof? Unless they prove these guys are alive-now-it's probably fake. I hope both of them are alive & well. But something seems "off" about it.
