Update V: Free Alan

I'm a little slow this week, so you've probably all seen the news on your TV set - Alan has been freed! Here's the BBC article, and here is the article about the petition to free him. I'm going to leave the banner up for a few more days.

Update IV: Free Alan

Yay!!!! BBC is reporting that Alan is free! I was half expecting his body to show up one day, so this is really good news!

Update III: Free Alan

News (I hope!): Yahoo is reporting that Hamas has told AP that Alan Johnston has been freed and is in Hamas custody at this time. No verification yet. I'll keep you updated.

Update II: Free Alan

More news on Alan Johnston. He's been seen in a video, wearing a bomb vest.

Update: Free Alan

Alan Johnston has been a prisoner for over 3 months now. (Click on the picture to the right to find out more.) Hamas thought they had made a deal to free him, but it fell through, so they've set a deadline now. Reporters in the Palestinian areas face a number of difficulties, but it's really a shame to see one of them kidnapped by a Palestinian faction. Many Palestinians are very upset by this and have been asking for his freedom.

For those of you wondering what the link on the right is, it's an article about Alan Johnston. He's a reporter for the BBC and was kidnapped in Gaza. A few Palestinians have even set up a website for him as well. Click on the photo on the right for updated BBC information.
