12 hostages released!

Just read on Yahoo that 12 of the Korean missionaries got realesed... good for them, but I wonder just how many terrible concessions were made to make it happen!

Re: 12 hostages released!

Word is possibly $100,000 each. No one will say. Two were martyred, and didn't even get promised 72 virgins. The Korean government got more out of this deal than they did by sending rice and aid to North Korea, though. At least the families of the returned would-be martyrs will vote for the party in power!
