Fox News journalists Steve Centanni and cameraman Olaf Wiig were held hostage in Gaza for three weeks. They were released on Sunday, August 27, 2006. During their captivity their were converted to Islam by gunpoint. They announced their conversion on TV, complete with anti-Western slogans.
After their release they (understandably) talked nicely about their captors and Islam itself. After all they rightfully fear for their safety. The danger still exists that those captors' revenge can reach them anywhere if they malign them. They do carry the memory of those first hand experiences.
I will also watch them closely in the coming months to see whether they will actually start practicing their "new religion". You may raise an eyebrow and think to yourself: Why on Earth would they do that? I say they most probably will! Why? Because once you are a Muslim, there is no way out!!! If you try to convert to something else, or return to your old religion, you will be declared an apostate and, as such, condemned to death - any Muslim has the right to eliminate you.
