Douglas Wood an Australian by birth but now an American Citizen is being held captive (hostage) in Iraq by a group of terrorists. They are saying that unless Australian troops and (others) leave the country within 72 hours they will execute him.

Do you think Governments should bend and remove troops to save his live (as many before him have been executed under similar demands)?

What do you think would be the best course of action to save people under these kinds of cirumstances?

NEWS TONIGHT: Woods release may happen. The release has been negotiated by a Shiek. Maybe there is hope for people. Considering so many captives have been executed when their demands haven't been met.

Stay tuned. Maybe the World does have a heart after all.
