Kidnapped

I saw this programme today - very worthwhile viewing if you can see one of the repeats. The story of Alan Johnston's 114-day kidnap ordeal in Gaza.

"Khamees (one of the guards) said that it was being decided whether I would be put to death, maybe Friday, maybe before Friday, maybe afterwards. I asked him how it would be done? And he said it would be done in 'the Zakawi way'.

"I imagined being put into that red suit that they would make me wear for any video work. I imagined perhaps one of them in a hood, imagined one of them stepping up, imagined having a knee in my back or the back of my neck and then my throat being cut."

It's scary stuff, told in a refreshingly down-to-earth and honest way.
