Already sick of hearing about Johnson. Its great that he has been released with the help of HAMAS! Hang on the group that held him are part of HAMAS, confusing or what? Did they help secure his release or actually did THEY release him? Anyway, old news, dont care.
Typical BBC, I had to hunt through their website to find the news that broke yesterday about the death of the NATO peacekeepers.

"The abduction and captivity of the BBC correspondent Alan Johnston in Gaza has highlighted the dangers journalists are facing all over the world.
2007 is already on course to surpass 2006 as the deadliest year for journalists" boo hoo, cry me a river..... It hasnt been a great year to be in the Armed Forces either....
"INSI, which describes itself as "a non-governmental organisation dedicated to the safety of journalists and media staff and committed to fighting the persecution of journalists everywhere", highlights the dangers facing journalists and the hotspots"...wouldn’t it be nice to have someone giving a dam about our Armed Forces as well? Maybe I just dreaming....
Hey Journalists, don’t want to get killed, its easy, stay away from war zones...no one is forcing you to go. You go to these places under your own free will and what for, to tell the world whats happening or just for the glory of a great story, from the ones Ive met it’s the latter. I refuse to feel sorry for them.
