While in Africa working at a charity to support education and religion, a 67 year old woman and three men were kidnapped by African rebels. They killed two (a churchman and charity worker) and kept the woman and the man for a driver. When the french government called the woman's phone, the kidnappers answered and threatened France. They only agreed to release the french hostages if France released their rebel leader, an arrested African terrorist.
It is sad that these poor people who have been working hard to support and raise money for Africa have now been taken advantage of by Africans. It will be interesting to see if the French government will agree on the negotiation and free the terrorist, which they most likely will not. Also, I doubt the rebels would follow through with the deal themselves. It is sad that this is happening to such innocent and giving people.
I agree, this is really devastating. It's awful that people who support things such as education and religion peacefully are used in such violent ways for their morals. I hope that they will be safe.
