JERUSALEM – Palestinian terror groups and security organizations in the Gaza Strip received $2 million from a United States source in exchange for the release of Fox News employees Steve Centanni and Olag Wiig, who were kidnapped here last summer, a senior leader of one of the groups suspected of the abductions told WND.

The terror leader, from the Gaza-based Popular Resistance Committees, said his organization's share of the money was used to purchase weapons, which he said would be utilized "to hit the Zionists."

He said he expects the payments for Centanni and Wiig's freedom will encourage Palestinian groups to carry out further kidnappings.

Officials associated with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah party and its security organization, the Preventative Security Services, confirmed to WND money was paid for the release of the Fox News reporters.

1. Apparently Fox negotiates with terrorists...good to see hypocrites finding good work

They act just like good little chickenhawks. Advocate no surrender, no negotiations, but when your ass is on the line, give the terrorists $2M.

Had I known, I would have scraped together $3M to keep them there.

2. So much for not negotiating with terrorists, eh Faux?

What a bunch of hypocrites.

Maybe next time they can grab Hannity and BlowReilly and do us all a favor.

3. How many of those 2 million dollars are being used to kill Americans in Iraq?

or Israelis?

[populistdriven]

4. Inflation is a horrible thing

:hide:

[drb]

5. Thus they are guilty of aiding the enemy in time of war...

...and are themselves terrorists. Off to Guantanamo!

Ciao, baby! See you in the cages!

[wholetruth00]

8. A big point is missing here. This could not have been done without the

Bush administration's blessing...otherwise, it's aiding and abetting the enemy and treason.

[The Doctor.]

11. More to the point...

The source is 'World Net Daily'.

It's a right-wing fabricator. They spew so much bullshit that America's grasslands suffer severe attrition everytime they print a story.

Just look at the ads on the page.

6. I wonder if they got the interesting tidbit on Hamas attacks on the US

we saw over and over again after the election from the same source. I mean two million dollars just doesn't buy freedom.

[upi402]

7. Does the flip-flop news employ actual reporters???

I thought they just had ho's and hacks.
Glad the reporters are coming home. Sad the $2mil will buy weapons to kill Americans that aren't whores for a propaganda network.

[majorjohn]

9. I wonder if

they were paid before the kidnapping.

[Patsy Stone]

10. Oh.My.Goodness.

Happy they are safe but...

Funneling money directly TO terrorists? Unbelievable.

<snip>

"We used 100 percent of the money for one precise goal – our war against the Zionists," the Committees leader said.

He said weapons purchased included rockets.

"Regarding the others (the Dugmash clan of the Committees) who received the money, I can tell you one thing is very clear – this went also to be used against the Zionists. I can't say every cent went to buy bombs, maybe it also went to pay for salaries, smuggling, buying shelter."

And the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades?? Holeee Shite!

[The Doctor.]

12. So far the source is World Net Daily....

They're a RW hit-site.

You'll find as much truth there as you'll find 'skinny' on Rush.

[Patsy Stone]

13. Then

why are they calling out Fox in a sense? I don't understand.

[razors edge]

14. even a blind pig

finds a truffle now and again.

they can be right wing and still not share the ideology of aiding the the enemy. and perhaps steal a little market share in the process.

[The Doctor.]

17. I agree.

But pigs don't find truffles with their eyes.

And this one smells funny.

[Az_lefty]

15. 2 mil buys a lot of RPG's...

glad the guy was freed, could do without the hypocrisy

[buddysmellgood]

16. How much to bring our troops home from Iraq?

[The Doctor.]

18. At a Million per soldier....

Exxon-Mobile should have no problem footing the bill.

[HuffleClaw]

19. with the assistance of the administration is my guess

the hypocrisy is astounding.
