This is a minefield unfortunately . Can't really see them executing an irish and an african aid worker although i do think they will be freed if more international pressure is applied . International i say because at this very min our government are on their lengthy summer recess and when the dail is needed most by one of our citizens who's life is possibly in danger , they are nowhere to be seen . I'l be watchin the 9 o clock news with interest , hoping that it's their top headline and with possibly Brian Cowan on a link up to reassure the nation and Sharon Commins family that all that can be done to release her is being done at present . But doubt biffo will be taking a hands on approach on this matter
