At this governments self-righteous stance on the Chandlers kidnap, " we will NOT pay any ransom demands" but they are perfectly willing to lavish money on Taliban terrorists though,if you are going to take a hard line on World lawlessness at least be **g consistant

I see two bunches of armed thugs making life difficult for the west,thoe with the loudest voices getting attention (I'd be here all day going through socio- political ,economic factors driving both issues but its all about sending the right messages and sticking to it consistantly)

selina..the reasoning behind the recent summits conclusion on economic aid for the Taliban was that joblessness,poverty was a major factor in recruitment for terrorist groups ,I see parallels here.

Much as I sympathise with their horrific plight,it was their stupidity which caused the problem We have service people doing a dangerous job in Afghanistan. Surely it's more important to ensure their safety and security and if educating and funding the Taliban to lay down arms and engage in some sort of dialogue will ensure a better outcome for all in Afghanistan including British service personel then that's the way forward.

The Chandlers are responsible for the awful situation they find themselves in, the British taxpayer did not force them to go on their journey against all advice, sailing through pirate infested waters.The taxpayer (or the majority of) will see no sense or value in paying a ransom when there's no chance of reimbursement so therefore it is financially a bad decision to even think about it..

They'd get better financial rewards declaring open season on white westerners then,shooting them instead of kidnapping them
