A HOSTAGE held alongside Australian Douglas Wood in Iraq has hired bounty hunters to track down his former captors, promising to eliminate them one by one. http://theaustralian.news.com.au/common/st...%5E1702,00.html |
As a history buff, this amuses me because it reminds me of Julius Caesar when he was taken hostage by pirates in his day. He developed a joking relationship with them and promised that when they released him, he'd come back with an army and have them all crucified. That turned out to be no joke.
