成人快手

I have placed the button on my Myspace page. I sincerely hope that Alan Johnston is alright, and my thoughts are with his friends and family.

I had the privilege of working with Alan earlier in his career at the Gloucester Citizen newspaper. He is a cracking lad and a superb journalist, and like so many others during this difficult time, I wish for his safe return. The idiocy of Alan's kidnapping is that here is a man of integrity and skill, reporting the plight of the Palestinians in a way that can only benefit their struggle. His well-crafted reports provided a window to the world for the Palestinians in Gaza but the cretins who seek to either hold, or worse, harm him are blinded by ignorance and hatred. I am not a religious man but I will 'pray' for Alan's release, in the hope that claims that he has been 'executed' - murdered - prove unfounded.

I've posted it on the message board I run, you can only hope that there is to be a positive outcome for Alan.

The Alan Johnson banner has been posted on the NUJ Brussels website at www.nujbrussels.org.uk

In response to David Walker, are kidnappings now to be classed either as idiotic or pragmatic, depending on whether or not the victim supports the Palestinian cause?

The kidnapping of Alan Johnston is immoral and criminal, just as the kidnapping of Gilad Shalit continues to be. I sincerely hope to see both of them released unharmed, very soon, but failing that, I hope that the plight of Alan Johnston is not forgotten by the 成人快手 as quickly as Gilad Shalit has been.

May they both be released unharmed, very soon.

I've posted the button on my blog. I work in subtitling on News 24 and Alan Johnston is a familiar face to us. I hope the situation will be resolved quickly and safely.

The button will be added to the website of the Churches' Media Council. People of all religions and of none are waiting in hope and faith for Alan's safe return. www.churchesmediacouncil.org.uk

Please let's hope Alan is home safely asap. Like many other 成人快手 reporters and crew they place them selves in degrees of danger and life threating situations.

All I hope is that Alan is safe and well and home soon.

My thoughts and prayers are with Alan's family, friends and colleagues at this unimaginably difficult time.

I've added the button to my Livejournal sidebar and also as an individual entry. Within minutes I'm seeing it re-posted on other blogs.

I have added the button to a blog I am working on:

www.the-fuss.blogspot.com

I am praying, hoping and contacting everyone I know to help in this as much as they can. I hope Alan will be home and that the horrible news items coming out in recent days will prove to be unfounded.
Those holding Alan have nothing to gain by continuing to do so and everything to lose if he is harmed.
They should let him go - he hasn't done anything wrong and cannot be blamed for any of their grievances.
Please for Allah's sake let Alan go.

Have added the button to my blog's side bar and invited other people to do so too.

He's a courageous man and my thoughts are with him.

FWIW, I've added the link to my blog's sidebar. Hopefully, Alan will be freed soon.

Just to point out it's possible to make the button your signature on all outgoing messages, if your e-mail account supports HTML in this way.

It is ridiculous that someone who is only trying to help the Palestinians and their cause is being treated in such a manner. He has been amongst them for three years, risking his life to achieve a good understanding about them and their way of life, enabling him to report to the rest of the world in a fair and just way. They then repay him for this by holding him hostage and not even having the grace to confirm where or how he is, and then releasing a statment saying he has been killed but providing no evidence. What a way to repay someone who has worked tirelessly in their favour for such a long time. Hoping and praying that he is well and will be returned to his family soon.

Yep, done.

I have put the button on my myspace and created a bulletin and sent it to all my contacts to that they can do the same.
I hope Mr Johnston is found :)

Added. and i have sent the link to all friends and family to add to their blogs as well. I just hope and pray that Mr Johnston is well... wish I could do more. Let us know if we can do anything more.

Added to both of my company sites and to a forum I run.

I've added the button onto my myspace - www.myspace.com/froodlepop - and will also add it to my blog. My thoughts and prayers are with him and his family.

The kidnappers are doing a great disservice to the Palestinian people. They are shooting themselves in the foot. By serving the interests of Israel, they are virtual agents and traitors.
Gaza is lawless and since the arrival of Hamas, the internal security situations has deteriorated and there is no end in sight. Alan Johnston is a victim for this dire state.

I've placed the link on my Myspace, hope it helps in some way. Thinking of Alan, and his family and friends.

Alan Johnson is fortunate he works for the 成人快手, which seems to be making a huge effort to secure his release. Not all journalists working in high risk places are that fortunate.

But 成人快手 correspondent or not, at the end of the day, I hope - I really hope - he'll make it home.

Let's hope that if he is still alive and released he will learn to be impartial from now on instead of an Arab puppet

Thanks to Steve Norris for pointing out that this can be turned into an email html signature file - I have done that, and it will be on all emails I send out for the forseeable future.

Our thoughts are with Alan and his family, and with all other journalists who risk their lives every day to tell the difficult stories which the world needs to hear.

button added

Done. I really hope it makes a difference. It's amazing what can happen...I wish his family peace in this tortured time.

Posted to Livejournal's UK community.

I am a member of a couple of internet forums and will be adding the button to my signature.

Praying for Alan.

Silencing Alan Johnston, or anyone from the press, generally demostrated as impotence of power and an inadequacy of logic. Alan johnston has a reputation of speaking for the ordinary / the invisible/ the people of Palestine

Many of us think about Alan Johnston every morning, when we wake up, those of us not living in oblivion in our cosy western world safe from harm. We hope his captors can see that Alan is working to ensure that people in Gaza of various backgrounds and beliefs can tell their story, impartially. By holding him captive for this long they have already raised international awareness of their campaign and we hope that they will now release him in good health. Our thoughts are with Alan, and that his captors have shown him common decency by looking after him during this time, like other groups in Gaza have done. We also hope that he has not lost hope.

Not a day goes by without thinking of Alan and his family.

I fervently hope he is still alive and will emerge unscathed.

Have added your banner to our website at www.inclinepress.com and join with others who are hoping he may be released soon.

I hope this matter resolves quickly and fruitfully. Allan Johnston is just a journalist and was in Ghaza for news coverage. I hope and prey for his secure release.John's abductors are just criminals and does not belong to any groups/denominations.

Dear Allan,
I pray for and almight god is with you. You be home soon.

be blessed daina

I've just added the button on my Chinese blog . I want to draw my friends' attention to Alan's situation. May Alan be released safe and well as soon as possible.

I have placed the banner on my myspace page. I am training to be a journalist and have been following Alan's dissappearence from the start.

It is shocking to know that someone who was doing his job was taken in such a cruel way.

Popel want to know what is going on around them and Alan did a great job of doing just that.

I hope he is found safe and well soon.

I have placed the link on my myspace page & on my blog.I campaign for a free Palestine but am saddened by what has happened.I do not believe kidnapping is the answer to the problems there.

I have added. Let us all pray for Allan's safe return: www.emdad.neemit.net

I'm a Vietnamese journalist. I'm so sorry for Alan. I strongly hope he is safe and sound.

Button added to my blog.

My prayers goes out to Allan and his family.

I hope his abductors will have the good sense to return him quickly and safely to his family.

I don't blog but I've emailed all my blogger friends to ask them to add your button. Please everyone do the same. Well done on this visibility initiative and I am hoping for a good outcome for Alan.

The button is added to every single item I am listing.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Alan and his family. Let us hope that this petty behaviour from countries we are supposed to be friends with ends here.

Your in our toughts and prayers.

I have worked together with Alan in the 成人快手 newsroom a while ago, now I am the head of the VOA Pashto Service. Eversince, I have heard about Alan's abduction, I feel really sad. He is a great man and my thoughts are with him and his family. I would love to see him a free man again.

I hope Allan will be back soon among his family and friends. This type of abuse must not be tolerated and must be publically condemned.

The abduction of Johnston by Palestinian gunmen is the most unfortunate thing to happen. I pray to Allah for his safety and appeal to them to spare his life.

成人快手 is the only international media organisation with commendable credibility. It has in the past five decades covered the strife between Israel and Palestine with utmost objectivity. It has also highlighted extensively the hardships faced by the the common Palestinians due to the various blockades imposed by the Israeli Army.

Alan was a brave journo who risked his life to report from the ground and any harm to him would not only be outragious but also harm the larger Palestinian movement.

I once again appeal for Alan Johnston's release. Please...

WE ALL LOVED ALAN FOR HIS NON BIASED REPORTING AND FEARLESS ATTITUDE TOWARDS THE DELICATE ISRAEL PALESTINE CONFLICT.

Alen gave news without bias. The suffering of the people of Palestine is being brought to the attention of the world by people like Alen. To make this person suffer is inhumane and beyond comprehension.

I would like to say please release Alan Johnson. He is not reporting from one side. He is such a neutral reporter. Thinking for the best of world. Once more i would like to see Alan reporting from Gaza soon.

It's a bad situation to be in for any person, and hope all bares well. But just a quick reminder to budding young journalist that this is part of the territory of journalism, as is soldiering.

Signing this petition for the simple reason that it is wrong and wholly unjustifiable to incacerate people for merely doing their job. i just hope this situation has a happy outcome.

I am deeply concerned at the disappearance of Allan Johnston. Kidnapping is the most cowardly act, which is highly detestable. Journalists are independent opinion makers, curbing their voice is equal to gagging the press and its fundamental freedoms. I pray earnestly to the people involved in his kidnapping to free him.

I hope Alan is safe, Insh'Allah

Dear Allan, I,m from Kingston, Jamaica. Just want you to know that I have been praying for you ever since I heard of your abduction. keep strong everything is going to be alright.

Yours truly,
Jennifer

I have added the button to my MySpace, Bebo, Facebook, and emailed it to everyone in my email address book.

I do hope he is returned safely soon. It is not a good omen for the future of journalism if he is not.

I added a link to my blog .

The button's been added to my outgong e-mails. I truely hope that compassion and goodness will prevail and Alan is released soon.

i have sent the link to my partner so that he can add it to his blog too. I hope we find him safe and well

I have added the icon to my bloc. Wish Alan be released very soon.

Dear Mr.. Johnston,
THERE COULD BE NO WORDS THAT MAY EXPRESS OUR DEEP SADNESS AND SORROW FOR WHAT HAPPENED ; WE ARE THINKING OF YOU AND WILL NOT STOP PRAYING FOR YOU ; TO RETURN BACK TO YOUR FAMILY SAFE AND SOUND ;

Anyone who is a registered digg user, can help spread this message to a LOT of people;

If you're not registered, please take a few minutes sign up. Once signed in, follow the url above and you'll see a yellow box on the left next to the headline "Help Support Alan Johnston, the Missing 成人快手 Correspondent Abducted in Gaza ". Underneath that is another box; "Digg this" and you can click on that. The more "diggs" this story gets, the more exposure this campaign gets.

I am telling to those mother fuckerz who think that Kidnapping is a fun that Better release the journalist....
What will you get if you hurt the family of Mr Alan....Free him.
And plz people do not generalize this to the muslims if the kidnapers are muslim.

"I remember the genuine sympathy with the Palestinians expressed in his voice when he did the FOOC piece about kidnappings in Gaza."

A 成人快手 journalist is required to be unbiased and not have sympathy with anyone.

Please release Alan Johnston. He was merely doing his job.

Houston, Texas.

I have added the button to my livejournal, outgoing emails, facebook and myspace page. I've been praying for Mr. Johnston since I first read he was missing. Wherever you are Alan, you and your family are in my thoughts. God bless you and keep you.

I have placed the button on my blog, I hope my contribution helps in some way. I sincerely hope and pray for Alan's safe return & my thought and prayers are with his friends and family through out this tough time.

I am so sorry for what is going on with Mr. Alan Johnston. This man deserves our respect and appreciation for his courage, honesty and unbiased coverage of events and situation in Gaza Strip. There were many protests and demonstrations on behalf of Mr. Johnston in the West Bank and Gaza Strip; people show strong solidarity with him and are angry at the perpetrators.

I wish him an immediate release to go back to his family, freinds and 成人快手 safe and sound. I will be delighted to see him back home.

I am indeed humbled by the opportunity to add Alan Johnston's tag to my newly created blog on Myspace and my first entry has been titled 'Free Alan Johnston'. I pray this small endeavour pushes across the fight to have Alan released.

Let Alan Johnston go! Not only for himself and his family, but for the noble cause of the Palestinian people. How can abducting and possibly murdering the only western journalist in Gaza help your cause in any way? Let him go!

Iam an ardent listener of 成人快手, and Alan had always clearly brought to my attention the situation in the middle east.

I pray for your quick release and this ordeal comes to an end with you well and joining your family.

I have already posted the button on my myspace site. My thoughts are with him and his family.

I have added the button to my website which is a list of resources for student journalists and media students like myself.

The code didn't work in my LiveJournal account so I used it as my userpic. However, it does not allow it to act as a link to the prescribed site.

I hope Alan Johnston is freed soon!

I have added the button to my Myspace page.
My thoughts & prayers are with Alan, his family & friends

Alan Johnston's captors hold an innocent man. He was dedicated to bringing life in Gaza to our country, and was working in their interests. They will kick themselves for what they've done - it's not going to earn them any favours. I hope that Mr. Johnston is alive and will return to his rightful place, but for now, hope is all we can do.

we in africa as well are deeply concerned about allan`s disappearance and hope and pray day and night that he is safe.
we urge the captors to go for the real commitors of the crimes and not the people who try and give all their time to expose the horrors happening in this world.
please release him safe and sound

I have never visited the 成人快手 website as often as I have over the last few weeks as I try to find out whether there is any news of Alan Johnston's whereabouts.
Like most of your readers I have never met Alan, but have a friend who is close to him which makes me feel a particular concern for his well being, on top of the concern and compassion that anyone would have for another human being who is being held in captivity against their will.
I heard and saw the coverage of the vigil at St Martin''s in the Fields and wondered whether a larger demonstration/vigil should be organised to keep Alan's situation in the public eye. If 35,000 people have signed the petition which has not been publicised outside the web , I imagine many thousands would turn out to demonstrate their solidarity. If such a thing would be of benefit and is organised you can count me and my family in.

Sincerely hope for the safe return of Alan!

I tried to add the link to my blog but it didn't work. Will try again later. I was just wondering though, why is the word "demand" used in the petition? I don't see how such a word could facilitate Alan's release.

I hope Alan will be found soon and I wish the family all the strength and courage.
Hope there is a good ending to this.

I've put this link on my Myspace page. It's a very small thing to do, but I hope anyone who reads it will say a prayer for Alan's safe release.

The 成人快手 shows disrespect for Alan Johnston by reporting news from Gaza. Is the news more important than Alan? Be Responsible and boycott ALL news from Gaza until Alan is released. I'm boycotting your station until you do so.

The Alan Johnson banner has been posted at:

One can only feel profound sadness for all of the victims of violence in the Middle East, and particularly for those who, like Johnson, seek to shed light on the plight of those victims yet, inevitably, become victims themselves.

My prayers are with this fellow journalist and with his family, friends and co-workers.

I also pray for his captives.

Peace.

We need people like Alan on the streets, telling it how it is. Kidnapping and harming journalists harms causes. They are the voice of the disenfranchised, the abused and the downtrodden.

Free him NOW!

As for his family, my heart and prayers go out to you. I cannot begin to imagine the anguish you are going through.

My family & I wish a speedy release of Mr Johnson. Our prayers are with him & his family

Release Alan.He was just doing his job.

PLEASE SHOW MERCY

Alan is in our thoughts every day, we are very happy to show our support through the petition and the link.

I am working for a radio station as a news reader in UAE. I am eagerly waiting for the day when I will annouce that he has been released safe and sound. I want to see that godly smile on his ageing parent's face on 成人快手. I want to see Mr Alan once again out in the field. I do not believe in god but I do pray that he is released...

On the abduction of Alan, I think what captor have failed to realise is that he was probabaly working to share 'what was happening' on ground to the people of the world and there aren't too many who are doing that job. They may have their vision of right or wrong but the big picture was that he stood with them in these troubled time on a mission of sharing facts. Apart for that, he was a journalist and nothing else. We hope he is alright.
...From Pakistan

Abducting journalists is the worst crime against all citizens.

Every one must fight for all missing journalists around the world.
My thoughts go to Alan Jhonson, his family, friends and colleagues.

(the button is added to my blog: www.thinkafresh.blogspot.com)

Safe return please....

What's going on in the world! is journalism is a criminal job?where is our brilliant journalist Alan?
i suggest that the International community should wake up from sleeping and revive the efforts towards Alan's release, since his absence i become a punctual listener to the 成人快手 just to hear about his release ,bu so far there are no ample information about. Oh Alan where are!

Please free Alan, please let him go.
My thoughts and prayers are with Alan and his family.

Alan

Having met you during my time in Jerusalem I was struck by what an immensely kind and balanced person you are. I think of you every day and prey that people will come to their senses and set you free. You are missed, you are no one's enemy. Thoughts to you family and for a safe return.

Kiffa

Button added to blog. There are also two facebook.com groups allowing people who use that site to sign the petition.

I hope and pray he comes home soon.

I have added the button to my blog, and will keep Mr. Johnston and his loved ones in my thoughts.

I pray you get the strength to endure till you're released. You'll be alright, and your colleagues and family will be ok too!

I am sorry to hear of Mr. Johnston's capture. He, like journalists, around the world, including the Middle East, have the right to investigate, report, and inform on issues - no matter how controversial. Whether people agree with a journalist's perspective and priorities or not, journalists and writers have the right to do their job. It does not help any cause to kidnap a journalist. If anything it shifts sympathies from the very people who need it. I do not know Mr. Johnston, nor have I read his works. Journalists and writers have to have their freedom - everywhere. People have the right to disagree with journalists, even protest against them, but they have no right to harass them, kidnap them or torture them. I want to thank all the Palestinian journalists, writers and intellectuals fighting for his release. How brave and courageous of them. More power to them. I hope Mr. Johnston will be released soon and will join his family safely.

M.Srinivasan-Schaeffer

For someone doing his job and bring awareness of the situation in these areas his is unjust. I hope he released soon so he and his loved ones can continue with their lives.

I have added the button to my myspace, my thoughts are with Alan and his family.

I wish u were all right wherever you are.. and come home soon...
MAy peace and justice pervail everywhere

I have just added the button to my flickr page.I hope Alan Johnston will be freed soon.

I hope Alan is freed soonest.
To help I have an article on the 成人快手's online campaign.
It is in the 'Media' section of www.thepatrioticvanguard.com; a Sierra Leone News portal published from Vancouver, Canada.

I am praying that Alan will be returned safe and well. My thoughts, prayers and best wishes are with him and his family. God Bless you.

this is the first time i have ever used a blog but i felt i just wanted to say that i and my friends are praying and hoping for a safe return for mr johnston and to let his family know that we are thinking about them too.

I wish our media had shown as much concern over British troops when they were held captive.

I am concerned about the inward looking almost selfish feeling to this campaign - smacks of double standards.

button added

I have posted the button on my Facebook page and will encourage my friends to do the same.

Mr. Johnstons reports from Gaza were highly appreciated. I sincerely hope he is in good health and will be released shortly.

I also wish to express my concern for other journalists working in dangerous enviroments. May they stay safe.

I tried to put this on a blog, but it didn't work...
Just want to say that the amount of support and the amount of people signing the petition just shows what a good and well-loved man he is. My thoughts and prayers are with him.
The 成人快手 are doing a wonderful job in keeping him in all our minds and in trying to ensure his safe release.

I posted this link to my Yahoo blog today...I hope we can bring Alan home safely..Godspeed.

I pray that the Lord's presence be with him where ever he may be kept.

Our prayers go to his family and close friends.

The Lord blesses you Alan

I can only imagine what a difficult time
Alan's family and friends are having.
Let's hope and pray that their nightmare
will end soon.

Image added to my MySpace, in my profile, in the Heroes section - it seemed appropriate.

The banner has been added to a Portuguese Blog that I read. I add my voice to all here calling for Alan's release.

added it to my myspace, hope Alan is returned safely

Please add my name to the petition for your journalist,Alan Johnston.I hope he will be freed very soon.This has gone on long enough.I hope Alan is safe.

I added it to myspace and hope Alan is safe and will return unharmed.

As a journalism student about to graduate, I feel that the world of journalism is becoming increasingly dangerous. All that Alan was doing was his job and trying to provide the voiceless with a voice. That is the job of a journalist and it is sad that a decent man has been abducted trying to promote the true story of his adopted country. Please return him unharmed. Thinking of everyone connected with him.

I've added this button to my blog. Remembering Alan and hoping he's returned home soon.

My thoughts are with Allan and his family. I pray for his safe return.

Have added the banner to my MySpace profile...

I hope that there is soon some news of Alans release and the banner doesn't need to stay for very long.

All my thoughs are with Alan and his family.

The banner is on my myspace and code sent to all my contacts on a bulletin. My thoughts are with Alan and his family and friends.
FREE ALAN!!!!!

My thoughts are with Alan and his family, and pray they will be reunited soon.

Alan Johnston has only been doing his job - but has gone beyond what was expected of him, as he wanted to know from a local perspective what your issues were. You have made your statement - please release Alan unharmed.
Chris, Chester

It is really important that the pressure is kept on and that Alan's fate and story remain in the public eye.
I am hoping for a happy outcome.

I Pray he returns safe and sound.

Rather than repeat what's been said, I just wanted to let the site moderators know I've added the banner to my myspace page.

My thoughts go out to Alan's colleagues, friends and family and I hope to hear of his safe return soon.

I sincerely hope that Alan Johnston is alright, and my thoughts are with his friends and family.

Alan Johnson like many other journalists in war zone countries knew what could happen to him. But for the sake of freedom and telling the truth to the face of Earth he paid the ultimate price. His kidnapping will forever mark a black spot in the history of Palastine in their quest to gain independence. To those who abducted him may they bring him back safe to his family because the eyes of the world are watching and making their own judgement on what to think of Gazza. 成人快手 is and will always be the voice of voiceless. By so doing those people that needed to be helpped with the journalistic touch of Alan Johnson telling their stories their lives are fast becoming a nightmares day after day. My prayers are with Alan and his family and wish that a day will come when readers of this website will be relieved to hear that he had been safely returned.

one thing i know for sure is that alan will one day return to his dear listeners.

whoever is responsible for alan s abduction should know that they are bringing misary to the people of palestine.

and to alan s family,friends and all dears of the b b c

"may god save alan"

I added to my blog. Hope he returned back safely

This time I am really confused why they kidnapped journalists like Alan, an inspiring and professional journalist for us- we young journalists. Every day,I check 成人快手 to find out his safe release, but to no avail. My prayers are with you all those wish his safe release soon. Those Kidnappers also should have to think that their motives would not be fulfilled from kidnapping a professional journalist who has nothing to harm them but whose reportings would also do justice on your part if your demands are genuine. Plze stop stop such path to kidnapping and giving tortures to so many people around the world.

We are deeply concerned about Alan's safty and pray he will soon be back with 成人快手

I would Just like to send my condolences to the bbc and the family of Alan, i hope we will hear something soon to garentee his safe return.

Can you please stop changing the link to the petition - I have it on my signature in a forum and I keep having to change it when people tell me it's not working. You're probably missing out on Signatures. -Plus on the page where you can read previous signitories you don't have a link to add your signature - took me a while to find - you need to make it easy for people

May it be in our creator's will for mercy and understanding to enter the hearts of Alan Johnston's capturers, so they may release him of his bondage. Alan is in Gaza to document the terror we humans seem addicted to spreading, not to condone it, nor participate in it; he is an exception. Even in California, we wish and pray to our lord for your unconditionally safe return. Let justice prevail on earth, albeit only once more. Free 成人快手 journalist Alan Johnston!!
-Best regard,
Jamie Cornejo

Alan Johnston has done remarkable work to keep all of us informed about the situation in the Middle East. His kidnapping is highly deplorable. It is a cowardly act, which defies all norms of civilized human behaviour. I express my deep condemnation and call for his immediate and unconditional release. I hope and pray that Alan safely returns home among his loved ones.

I believe for a man who has been doing his job with upmost professionalism in such a very turbulent world ,he simply does not desire this as a reward.Is someone simply listening to the cries of millions around the world.

I added it to my Friendster. Please please, let Alan come back safely.

I have been following the kidnap story about Alan.It is the greatest mistake made this year.I pray he will be released soonest to continue to throw more light on the mdieast situation instead of the heat we continue to receive from both sides of the conflict.Please who ever has Alan should set him free for the sake of his family.Thank you

Every morning am waking up to check on the updatea of Alans case. For a long time i have respected Alan for the good work he has been doing in one of the most unsecure areas in the world. For this i have posted the Tag in my website and emailed the page to most of my friends so as we cometogether on this noble course. I have saluted him with a Page in my website

Together we are ALAN!

Thank you 成人快手 for the Support you have offered to try and secure his release.
Njoroge, kenya

I've added it to my blog as well.

Will be praying for him.

its very sad that the people who go out of their ways to help others always get caught out in an undesirable situations.
All my thoughts are with Alan and i really hope and pray that he gets released safely. Ameen

Have added this to my MySpace page and my husband has added it to his blog.

Our thoughts are with his family and friends. We are hoping for a swift and safe return.

Kidnapping civilians is never acceptable as "an act of war" much less when there are no "delared" hostilites. That said -- journalists of objectivity and for whom there is nearly universal respect is self-destructive to a cause as it shifts the focus away from the issues at hand as well as cutting off a conduit for the flow of information.

The longer he is held, the more negative the image of his captors becomes. And such an act conveys an image of barbarism and inhumanity.

To his captors, you have shot yoursevles in the foot and the longer you hold him the more septic the wound becomes.

My thoughts are with Alan and his family - I hope he is returned safely soon and I also think that more should be done in trying to get him released. The news about this case seems to have gone very quiet

wish him all d best and hope he returns safely to his family .

We as Basotho forward our prayers to the family & stuff of Alan,may the people holding him be human to at least give some indication to his well-being & let the world welcome back Alan's great journalism.Molimo a mo boloke.

The continued detention of Alan Johnston by kidnappers is totally unacceptable to civilized values. Alan's reporting of events in Gaza was the most informative; he brought to the world what was really happening in there.

I call on his kidnappers to release him immedaitely.

I hope to see you return safely to your loved ones...

As a Muslim Arabic/British individual I have never been able to understand the mentality of the people who can鈥檛 distinguish the right from wrong as far as looking after people fighting our causes鈥�
Alan is clearly is one of those people and we must do whatever in our power to establish who are the mindless people behind this ignorant plot and how we need to educate them to fight with us and not against us since we already have enough enemies it seems鈥�
For god seek free Alan and sort out your logic people.

i don't know too much about him. i hope where ever he is he should be treated fairly.

it's quite unfortunate a group of people would do a thing like this. where ever you are Alan know that u always have a your suport and prayer!!!!!!!!!

Free the Free voice of people.

I will remember Alan in my prayers.

I think that such groups are a bane on society. Alan was doing his job in reporting what was taking place in Gaza - why is it that a man doing his job has to be taken by radicals who have no idea of what the reality of life is beyond their own preconcieved notions. I do hope that he returns to his family. Alan, have heart.

I have added the link on my Blog...

hope Alan is go home

I always admired the job of a journalist and always wished I have had the opportunity. However, with the now ever inceasing risk of abduction I am changing my wish...
Regards your jouranlist Mr. Johnston, I am really upset and all the time check about his immediate release.

I'm a member of a popular Spurs forum, Spurs Odyssey. I've added the button to my profile and keep Alan's plight featured in our off-topic section.

hi my name is aisha and i am a british turned muslim and i have watched alan on the news several times i am praying for him and his safe return back to his family

My name is Nick.S.Zhu, a loyal 成人快手 listener from China. Along with me,my friends many of who like to listen 成人快手 Worldservice are shocked greatly by the news that our friend Alan John,成人快手 Gaza correspondent had been taken hostage by Islamic elements. Please!!have Alan get freed,no one should get into trouble for his job as a correspondent.

I'm praying for him and for his family. I believe one day soon we all could sing "Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty, Alan is free at last!"

I'm praying for him and for his family. I believe one day soon we all could sing "Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty, Alan is free at last!"

I have placed this icon on my myspace. I really hope that Mr Jhonston is safe and well.

The many political groups and factions in Palestine do not have, to the best of my knowledge, a history of killing foreign journalists. The former well understand that such actions, certainly in the case of a representative of the 成人快手 news network, would not particularly improve their image. On the other hand, the quickest possible release of Mr. Alan Johnston would be interpreted by many outsiders as positive P.R. Palestinians should continue not to harm unbiased journalism.

Journalism represents a medium by which the cries of the poor and the oppressed can be transmitted.When this medium is disconnected what are the poor and the oppressed to do who will tell the objective truth??

PLEASE FREE ALLAN NOW

(JAMAICA)

The many political groups and factions in Gaza have, to the best of my knowledge, no history of killing foreign journalists. The former understand quite well that such an action would be entirely counter-productive. On the other hand, the quickest possible release of Mr. Alan Johnston would be considered good P.R. by many. Palestinians should continue to allow superb unbiased journalism such as that of the 成人快手 news network to operate freely in their territories.

I have known Alan a few years back, when we both worked for the 成人快手 World Service Newsroom in Bush House, London and can confirm what David Walker wrote on 17th April: Alan is the kindest man imaginable, compassionate, full of integrity, and very professional. He hasn't changed since then, as evidenced by his reporting from Gaza. And I hope that this horrid experience won't change him. I also hope that his captors will treat him humanely.
Alan, my thoughts are with you often, as are those of so many people, who have signed the petition calling for your release. I am sorry I took so long to join the roll-call.
Take care of yourself!
Greg

i added it to my myspace page to let people see that i am supporting his safe release. i hope he is ok.

As a British Muslim & supporter of the Palestinian cause for return of ALL of Palestine, I implore whoever holds Alan Johnston to free him immediately. This kidnapping does no good to your (our) cause. As a Briton that uses the 成人快手s services extensively I testify that the 成人快手 does a great deal to bring the true plight of the Palestinian people to the attention of the world & gives much publicity to the oppression & tyranny of Israel. They are not the voice of the British political establishment.

Allan you continue to be in our thoughts. Remember the darkest hour is nearest the dawn. I pray you survive this ordeal and come out stronger. Your work, sacrifice serves as an inspiration to many. We wait to email you in person upon your release. Keep hope alive.

in my opinion the government of the palestine knows exactly where allan johnston is and are holding out on us.i think that the government of england needs to apply more diplomatic pressure and use spies to search for him.if not we have to come to grips with the fact that he is dead.

To those who are holding Alan captive:
Please do not harm this gentle human-being who has the Palestinian Cause at heart. He is filled with love and compassion for the Palestinian People. Please show him the same Grace he has shown you.
My thoughts and prayers are with Alan, his family, his friends and colleagues. God Bless you Alan. May God hold His Light above your captives... for them to become aware of the futility of their anger. May we soon see you... safe and sound.

I am an avid 成人快手 World Serice listener and have been for years. I always looked to Alan to hear the real story of the happenings in Gaza and the surrounding region. I emplore the people holding him captive to release him so that they can have their story presented in an unbiased manner. They will never be seen as anything less than barbarians in the eyes of the world when they resort to harming the ones trying to enlighten us to their plight. Godspeed, Alan.

if today i have become fun of bbc radio and tv ,it because of alan.you have a nice voice alan and i hope that you will soon come back to work.

I am well wishing for him and his family.wish to hear from his own vioce,ALLEN JOHNSTON GAZA, 成人快手

For the interest of the free world, and an international right to know what is going on in our world, free of religion or prejudice - FREE ALAN JOHNSTON

Jaish al-Islam, you have abducted the one person in Gaza who truthfully reported to the world the injustices meted out to the Palestinians. Do you not think that your action has been totally counterproductive?
Alan, the whole world is praying that you are well and is looking forward to hearing your objective reporting very soon.

Please, Free Allan With Dignity,and let him to go 成人快手 Without Condition.
Thank you
Raggae

I am very sorry to here about Mr.Johnston, i will pray for him.

i hope this man is still alive and possibly return to his family again.As a media myself, he has sacrifice his time to find news for us...

it is a sad moment to note Mr. Alan Johnston has been abducted while doing his work. hope his family will come through these difficult times & pray for his early release.

Allan, your Ugandan funs will remain on our knees as we pray for you and your family untill your release.

How many more lives must be put in the danger before the world comes to a stand still. If there is a God, im sure he will be stepping in soon. May Alan be free from the terror we have already seen and witnessed.

The whole saga of Alan's abduction beats my imagination. He used to be one of the best, if not the best reporter on crisis situations. The one on Israel and Palestine was just pure, factual and unskewed journalism, to say the least.

Having said all this, I fail in all my endeavour, to fathom why he was abducted and why in the world he is still held!

In all, I have always wished and prayed for his safe return so we could hear his soothing voice again.

To those holding him: please release him. This is not the best way to express your greviances. Even if it were, you have held him long enough! please release him!! Release him!!!

I hava just say that Alan should be released.Because Alan is a innocent person.

THE MISSING MAN HAS KEPT THAT PART OF THE WOLRD SILENT AND ON REPORT OF THE EVENTS.LET HIM GO...........CEPHAS ESHUN OF TEMA GHANA WEST AFRICA WE LOVE YOU,

I now can smile after hearing that there have been pictures of Allan's ID.. Things are moving now and I know for sure I m going to hear that feminine voice of Allan again on the 成人快手 soon..

Anyone kidnapped is in a state of stress and depression because they do not know what is happening on the outside of their situation. As far as I can tell from Alans life in Gaza, he has tried to tell the situation to the world as it happens and even lived there to prove the case. Any kidnappers reading this website need to check their Koran and see where it states that any helpers of their religion have to be kept from their family or friends for a cause. I doubt they will find this phrase in the Koran so in the goodness of Alah you need to free Alan and get a life like everyone else. Kidnapping an innocent will surely bring the condemnation that is right so get your act together and let Alan go.
from a Mother of 2 sons and a Grandmother of 2

The naming of Alan as the broadcast journalist of the year by the London Press Club can only best be celebrated with his release, which i pray and hope will be SOON.

All journalists in Trinidad and Tobago are praying for Mr. Johnston his family and by extension the 成人快手 network. We hope those who have knowledge about his disappearance come forward and those responsible are made accountable.

I wish for the SPEEDY release and return of Mr. Johnston. My thoughts are with his family and loved ones as well during what must be a most difficult time.

I believe in and value a free press. It gives me the ability to evaluate many angles of what is going on in the world around me, and allows me to make better decisions. Thank you to all who place themselves in harms way to tell the truth.

The kidnappers probably hope to accomplish something towards whatever goals they have by carrying out this cowardly act. If we are to prevent future kidnappings we must ensure that kidnappers do not profit, or accomplish their goals by their actions.

I wish for the poor man to be released immediately. Has he not suffered enough? And for what? What purpose does his detention serve?

Alan risked his life and fought so hard to tell the world how much suffering the ordinary palestinian people face. Alan, you are the only star lightning the skies of Gaza. We the Palestinian people are on your side ... God will protect you.

Dear Alan,

Congratulations on your award.

There are many, many people thinking about you and wishing for your safe return. Hope you can read this.

FREE ALAN JOHNSTON NOW!

I am deeply disturbed about the news of Allan Johnston, being captured because he used his democracy as any journalist should, to report on matters arising out of palestine.

I'm from the Caribbean and I listen to bbc news on a regular basis, and so I feel for co-workers, family and friends. I pray that he would be released (ALIVE) VERY soon and when he is released, I believe that he'll publish a book on his experience

I am from Burma and I am praying for him to release with no hurt and safe arrive.

I'm Indonesian, living in Indonesia. I just met Mr. Alan Jonston once, in 1999, when he came to my town, and gave me a journalism lesson. He's a good person. I hope God always protects him and avoid him from any harms ..

As someone whos is committed rooted branch for justice for the Palestinian people I deplore the continuing holding by an unknown group of Alan Johnston the 成人快手 correspondent. The cause of Palestinian rights is being done untold harm and the people of Gaza and the west bank will suffer even more by the action a small renegade group.
Where ever you are Alan we are with you and are thinking of you and hope that you have the strenght to endure your hardship. To your family we wish strength in this most difficult of times.

hello i hope they find alan. i hope hes safe and i hope nothings happened to him. i pray for his family. who ever has kidnapped him please let him go.

I am praying for him, his family and friends. I also pray for his captors that they may realize that Mr. Johnston is a human being with feelings and has a family and friends that care, love and miss him terribly.

Dear Alan
God Bless you ! I pray for you. Hope you will be back home soon .

Like so many other people worldwide I just want to add my thoughts regarding the abduction of Alan. How can any organisation expect to furter it's cause by such an action. The world has already become far too polarised, and this only cotributes to this and does nothing towards furthering the abductors objectives.
The damage has already been done but if Alan is released unharmed at least the world will not demand retribution.

I don't have a blog, but i put in the my signature so it'll show on all the posts I make in the forums I'm active on.

Its very unfortunate that this man has been kidnapped. It is also cruelly ironic that he is being held by those he and the 成人快手 seek to empower with their anti-coalition journalism.
Perhaps when he is released his perspective on international affairs may have changed?

Very sad, disappointed and frustrated. I'm positive that one day he will be free and we shall see him again safe.

The kidnapping of Alan Johnston has been a success for the extremists for two reasons. Firstly it has undermined objective and independent reporting of events in Gaza, with the result that news reporting can be effectively controlled by the factions. Secondly the extraordinary reaction of the NUJ in the UK in advocating a boycott of Israel. It is clear that the people who use kidnapping to further their political aims have to be confronted, not appeased.

I pray that God will intervene and Alan will be released. To his family, May God strength you all. God willing, Alan will soon join you. We all miss him.

It is terrible that someone who is actually highlighting the Palestinian issues and inequalities is the victim of kidnap. Please release him safely immediately.

Alan is one of the Palestinian鈥檚 friends and one of the VERY few who is brave enough to report their plight. The people behind this act are doing massive irreversible harm to the Palestinian cause. Palestinian, Arabs and Muslims face so many challenges in the world. Why won鈥檛 the minority few wake up and realise that this act gives their enemies a huge propaganda victory and a big stick to beat them with.

成人快手 should talk to all persons of influence in Middle East or Arab world to help free Mr. Allan Johnston. He does not deserve this because he did enough to highlight the suffering of the most disadvantaged people in the world. My sympathies go to Allan鈥檚 family

I'm palestinian ,I live in Gaza Strip
I added the link to my space .
I'm really sorry for this situation ,I feel shy of what those palestinians did,but that doesn't mean all the palestinians kiddnaped Mr.Alan or they are pleasnt for that .
I hope he will be home and safe,because every human being desirve to be safe as we want to be

Mr Johnston should be released at once. The more media attention he receives, the more we play into the hands of his captures. My guess this is exactly what his captors want. I hope he is unharmed. Please release him at once as he's been there for the Palestian people, and most of them would like to see him released.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you, keep strong.

I am a very strong supporter of Palestinian rights against Israeli policies. However Alan Johnston's continued detention serves the Palestinians no good at all. His caprture was a sensless act. Whoever is holding him should release him for his own sake and that of his family as well as for the sake of the Palestinian people in general.

They should understand that without media they cannot bring their plight to the world. It is not fair to kidnap a friend. May God gives strength to his family and keep him unhurt. Hope he will be released without delay.

Alan was just one of the few reporters that kept the plight of the Palestinian people on the front burner of the crisis that is facing humanity today all over the world, holding him does no good to the Palestenian cause, I urge my fellow brothers in the struggle for the just cause of the Palestenian people to release him unconditionally.

I have also added him to my bebo site i trully hope he is found safe and well and i,m appalled at the lack of coverage that his disapearance has recieved!
We should care as much for missing adults as we do for missing kids after all he is someones child too!

We, the people and journalists family in Afghanistan strongly appeal to those who holds Alan for his safe return. Alan is loved by Afghans and we all pray he joins his family who have been desperately waiting to him "safe and sound".

Hi Alan,

I, like so many others around the world, wish for your immediate and safe release. I am a faithful listener and miss you very much. My thoughts go to you and your family every day that you are held against your will. I look forward to hearing your voice soon.

From Hong Kong, sending you my heartfelt gratitude for the job you do in reporting the news.

Best wishes,

Sandra

KEEP STRONG

I am sorry to hear that 成人快手 correspondant Alan Johnston is missing in Gaza.
I hope that the police and rescue people involved in the search will find Alan safe and sound.
My thoughts are with Alans family, friends and colleagues at the 成人快手 Television Centre in London.

I don't have a blog, but I would like to add the button to my email signature - is that possible, and could you explain how?

I met Alan as a very young journalist and was quite bowled over by how kind and friendly he was to a newcomer like me, and by his utter lack of airs and graces. His example shows how a first-rate journalist can remain eminently human.

I've added the link to my myspace. My thoughts are with his family and friends.

Might be a good idea to create a "myspace" page to highlight this? Will attract a lot of attention.

Kindly release Johnson. It is an act of cowardice and being inhumand to do this to an innoncent person who is doing a lot to expose the evils that is done.

Release him please.

Happy bithday Alan where ever you are. You are always in my thoughts and in those of many others too. I know that you will soon be back with us all and once take up the cause of honest factual reporting about a forgotten cauuse. I wish you a speedy release and return to your family.
To your parents and family in Scotland - hang on in there he will be back with you soon God willing

Before you disappeared you were just an other correspondant, but now your the voice I'm looking forward to here and hope to here and if you get to see this I wish you a happy Birthday and hopeful for your release

on your birthday Alan I wish you the best, and a lot of more days like this one, we the people of this country called Canada we support you in you efforts to show the world the ugly face of war, we raise our classes to your birthday and a speedy return to your family, happy birthday Alan and a lot more in good health

I notice today is Alans Birthday this would be a brilliant day for him to be released also for the sake of his family who are obviously feeling a great deal of distress at this time, I hope and pray for a speedy release as it has been a long time since his capture, to the people who are holding Alan you obviously have family so how would you feel if it was one of your children, please please release him today x

I am very new to this technology & found the the information about Allen whilst I was looking for something very different. I have lived in very difficult times & situations. All I know, is that you have to be true to yourself. I hope for him & his family, that he is safe, & can remain centred & safe in himself.

The circumstances change, but the the self remains, grounded, centred, & ready to meet whatever comes along.

In reality, this is always easy to say, but not always easy to do. But I keep trying!

One day I hope we (including me) we will all get there.

I am sending good thoughts to Alan, his family and those who are holding him. I have sent a message out to my friends asking them to visit this site. Keep the good thoughts going. Come home safely Alan.

Pardon My French but who ever done this is really spitful and alan hasn't done anything wrong. Bring Alan Johnston 成人快手!

My thoughts are with Alan and his family. Hoping for his speedy release. With very best wishes
Clarissa

im just your average guy that goes through life and does not complain ,i like listen to the news ,im a scot the same as ,alan ,come on guys ,youve takin the wrong guy take someone from the guverment , u me we all need guys like alan

People; we should know that Alan was simply doing his work. And this indeed is in our interest. I plead that you please set him free. Remember, he has family and the entire world is waiting for him to be more productive even for your very self. Please, please set Alan Johnston free. We are waiting for him because we want to be happy. God bless you.

The increasing danger to journalists and their work around the world is really quite sad. However, unlike in Iraq, Palestine is not in total meltdown and I do believe his whereabouts and condition is known by several high ranking Palestinian players. They fact that the Palestinian authorities have been able to publicly suggest with confidence that they believe he is not dead - particularly when a group claimed to have killed him a few weeks ago - backs this probability up..

Perhaps all 成人快手 coverage of the Palestinian plight should cease until he has been given-up, or in the unfortunate event of his death, the culprits brought to justice. The irony is that prolonged coverage of his disappearance may actually be exasperating the situation and encouraging his kidnappers and their associates to hang onto him for longer. Of course this would not mean an end to 鈥榖ehind the scenes鈥� negotiations carrying on in full force.

Added to my blog. I'm from the US, but as a journalism student, I share the same concern, and also hope for his safe return.

Button Added. I hope Alan is freed soon!

i have just added the button to my myspace blog today.

as a current journalism student at the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University in Port Elizabeth, South Africa i feel it extremely necessary for everyone across the globe to hope for the safe and speedy return of Mr Johnston as he does us all a great service in providing us important news and information.
He is very brave and i hope he continues to be. My thoughts are with his family at this time.

I FEEL BAD WHEN THE 成人快手 REPORTER HAS NOT BEEN RELEASED AS AT DATE.WE PLEAD FOR THOSE HOLDING HIM TO RELEASE HIM FOR THE SAKE OF GOD & HUMANITY

Link added. My thoughts go out to you Alan where ever you are and to your family. I pray for your safe return and that your captors see that you are a brave man reporting the unjustices to all people not a single race. I wish I could do more.

Like many people in the Netherlands I have been very supportive to the Palestinian cause. To maintain this support the Palestinians should not kidnap innocent people. Please release Mr Johnston

Our thoughts and prayers go to Alan and his family and hope for a speedy return. It is a tragedy that a few persons could do so much to harm the Palestinian people.

Alan was only doing his job, however dangerous it was. All he wanted to do is just report on the situation in Gaza and for the benefit of the Palestinians. Please let him go and support freedom of the press for the good of humanity.

I have literally just closed the pages to Brian Keenan's brilliant and at times painfully vivid book; through the horrifying parallel, Alan's situation welled up across a massive continent and into my apartment.

Writing can cross boundaries and borders and bring other people's world's and lives stuttering into our own; Alan's has frequently taken me to Gaza. This power has been silenced by recent events. And I can only mourn at the impact not only for Alan and his family, but also for the world in the absence of the words and stories that the world so badly needs to hear about Gaza.

My thoughts are with Alan and with everyone working to free him. The value and importance of writing and journalism should never be undermined. Alan's presence in Gaza was so vital for Palestinians and the world. And I only hope that he is released immediately. Button added.

I have put this on myspace website in the hope of getting more youngsters names on the list and getting them more involved in the whats happening in the world!
My thoughts go out to Alan's family and hope for his release soon!

I have just added the button to my myspace.
My thoughts are with his family and friends.
I hope he is released soon.

Alan, God will ask those who are holding you to give an accoung of what they did to you. My prayer is that, God keep you safe till you are released.

I hope and pray he gets released soon. This does not help Palestinian cause at all!

Alan is a man of principle and integrity and I pray that he is being sustained by all the prayers and thoughts of him. God bless

Linda

It is a sad day when a man comitted to bringing unbiased news on a sensitive subject is subjected to kidnap by the same peoples whos story he is trying to tell in a just andtimley manner.
I am proud to have Alans Tag on my page and advise all to do similar

It is positive to know that you are a live Alan, now lets pray, we as humans in the world can end your suffering and bring and you home to your loved ones.

Alan should not have been taken hostage as he was an independant witness to all that was going on in Gaza. If anything he brought the Palestinian peoples' suffering to world attention. They have now lost this valuable tool. It has certainly turned my opinion against their struggle as this is such a dirty tactic, playing politics with the innocent. Thoughts and prayers for Alan, his family and other brave correspondents around the world who want nothing more than to report the truth. Come home soon Alan...

No man must be held against his will. No one has a right over his freedom. A reporter must be protected by all, for it represents our own freedom. Free our reporter we ask kindly.

My heart goes out to Alan's family and my prayers for dear Alan...

Really.....truly....does capture, torture....and taking the life of another EVER advance whatever the supposed "cause" is ??? Truly diabolical logic...

For the captors and their sympathisers who, if ever, are reading this...search your hearts...search deeper into your conscience...does anger and everything done in anger give/provide solution...??

The wider, bigger world than yours, watches...truly...non can and will sympathize or understand you but only you...let our Alan go please...

For some reason my heart tells me Alan Johnston will come out just fine. My prayers goes to his family and for his safety.

Button on home page of BECTU site

Also emergency proposition passed at this year's BECTU Annual Conference

I just wanted to show my support. Although new video footage has brought Alan's abduction back into the lime light, I wanted to say that I have been thinking about him and hope he is released, safe and well soon.

Stay strong Alan, we will do whatever it takes. My prayers are with you.

The concerned sectarian groups in Gaza Strip should try their best to free Mr. Alan Johnson unconditionally. He is a brave, courageous, and just reporter.He has been reporting the plights and sufferings of the common people in the Gaza Strip. The militants should not harm a friendly and independent journalist. I think the Hamas administration should exert their influence on those kidnappers to free the reporter.He is a friend of the Palestinians, esp. those without power and money. Please free him now.

Its good at least to know that Allan is well. , Allan's abduction is an afront to Journalism as a profession. As a Zambian Journalist, his courage however, is an inspiration, to be truthful and courageous even when circumstances forbid.
Lets those evil souls release Allan immediately.

I am thrilled Alan is alive, i hope this brings some comfort to his family who must be going through hell. Alan is a strong, brave, intelligent, courageous and generally amazing journalist and i wish daily for his safe return.

Come home soon!!

Demanding the release of Alan Johnson is all very well but it seems his captors have their own agenda. If all the western journalists withdrew from palestine territory until he was released, then perhaps they would see the damage they are doing.

Just to send a message of support to Alan,his family and colleagues. We will post this code to our website - MediaBite - based in Ireland. Heartening to see the video this afternoon and hopefully there is some encouragement in it for those working for his release. With every good wish.

I am heart sick! There was a time when reporters were both respected as well as protected.
I am getting my fill of what raw humanity with out hope are capable of doing.
We who live with a solid hope need to wrap Alan and his family warmly in prayer without ceasing until he is home, asking God to reveal to Allan His protective Hand and encouragement over him, as well as his family.
As for the rest uf us lets realize if not for the grace of God this could be any one of us!

Alice Delarosa

why is that they abduct a person who has done nothing but good for their cause.
If they want to do some good then abduct any of our politicians;I'm sorry they realise as much as we that abducting one of our politicians would give no cause for concern to the electorate.

I found it very uncomfortable watching Alan speaking and it is obvious he was under pressure to say what he said. I think it is appalling that a journalist with his intelligence and understanding of the muslim world should be in such circumstances. It makes me wonder about the intelligence of the people who took him and what they expect to achieve.

We're sending our support for Alan Johnston, an innocent journalist who was kidnapped while doing his job as a 成人快手 journalist. He must be released immediately!
Our good thoughts & prayers go to Alan & his family. Don't give up, Alan. Remember, you're the "bees
knees". Best, Bernard & Elizabeth

I saw his mother and father speaking on 成人快手 News, what thoroughly lovely people they were, and so brave in the face of all this. Let him go.

To the persons holding Allan;I say to you in kind:- I may never trully know the true depth of your pains,and that of your brethren beyond that which I see and read in the news media.Through the works of Allan and his colleagues,daily struggles of everyday palestinian have become evident to the world over.His voice,your voice.
May Allah,our most powerful,most merciful bestow upon you the strength and will to let the soul of Allan home free to his family..for Allah's great promise is that in time to come,Allah will never forget the mercies and kindness we shower upon others.

peace be upon you.

May Allah help Alan in this trying time of his lifetime, Amen.

..i am muslim but i must say that what is going on in the middle east is just simply madness... this must stop.
Alasn must be released immediately and all parties must stop the violence... all parties.. the isrealies and arabs, ameicans and british... have we all lost our senses.. everyday its only kill kill kill ... come on...
For a start, pls free Alan.

On behalf of the palestinian people I urge you to release Alan, you are not doing any good to our cause, but causing more bad publicity to the palestinian people. please, please release him as soon as possible so he can return to his family and friends.

First of all i would like to say that i hope that Alan Johnston is ok and that i am sure he has the support of millions of people and i will hope and pray for Alan Johnstons release and returned home safe and well.
God Bless Alan Johnston

Dear Alan, I want to send you and your family a message of hope and solidarity. Your story has highlighted to the world how dangerous life can be for dedicated journalists. It also helps to tell the story of one of the most underreported places in the news. Let's hope more people acknowlege the risks reporters take around the world and support them better in the future. I am sure you're going to be OK. You and your family are in our thoughts, Catherine and family. PS> I worked alongside Alan in the Bush House newsroom.

i have added the button to my myspace but i am sad to see that alan has missed his birthday happy birthday alan!

It makes me very sad to hear that Alan Jonhston has been kidnapped. Me and my dad light a candle for him every day beside a little buddha statue that my family and I bought in Sri Lanka. Now that I have seen his video I am much happier. I believe he is still alive and I hope he will be released soon.

A link added at Anti-Fraud International. We wish Alan well. It was bittersweet to see him in that video. Hope to see you freed soon, Alan.

I've added the button to my profile signature - I'm a moderator at another website and whilst the rules there don't allow links to petitions, I've still had people from far and wide asking me for more information about Alan, so I've directed them here to the 成人快手 website. I've also added the button to my Skype profile as another way to raise awareness. I think of Alan daily and scour news bulletins for him ... keep your chin up, Alan, because no one will forget you. To those who hold Alan, please let him go; humanity is better served by journalists like Alan reporting freely than being held captive and unable to report at all.

Alan,

I'm writing this message with the hope that you get released soon. I have also prayed that the day will come soon.

God bless you where ever you are, I'm sure your guardian Angel will deliver you home to your friends safe and sound....do not give up....

I worked with Alan in early 1990-ies in Uzbekistan as an interpreter and translator from local languages. He is one of the most decent people I know. I take pride of knowing Alan. Now I really worry about him. I express my support to him and his family, who show real dignity in a hard situation. I hope it'll help somehow. I am sure he is live and safe.
Tuigun Aykhodzhaev

My thoughts are with Alan and family. He was only doing his job.

I pitty anyone who believes their religion, culture or otherwise would want them to do this.

Added the button to the "userinfo" page of my Livejournal. I hope that I can encourage others to do the same.

button added. My condolences to Alan's family & friends.

I will pray for you to free from that trouble. GOD will save you.

It may be that Alan Johnstone is to soon be freed from the shackles of his kidnappers but freedom usually comes with a price. In Alans case I suspect that price is having lost the ability in the past 90+ days to state the case for all the palentininan people at a time when their voice needs to be heard above the clamour of the guns.

I'm sure Alan will remain as dignified as ever on his release but I hope he returns to Gaza and does what he does best and raise the profile of all of Palestine once again.

Alan is a journalistic who has shown integrity and a profound understanding of the Middle East situation. This makes his kidnapping even more upsetting. The reports of a possible release soon are encouraging, but until then our thought and prayers are with him and his family.

I added this some weeks so but only saw that it would be helpful to let you know when I came looking for updates on Alan.

your link is here:

and I can only hope that people who hold him see sense and release him unharmed becuase he is the best advocate that Gaza has as an independant and unbiased view in the region with the opportunity to broadcast truth to the world.

Good job Alan, hold on.. many many people are thinking of you.

hoping to hear of your release soon

I am an American and an Israeli; yet I do not and will not differenciate between abductees. Holding people captive is wrong through and through, regardless of race, religion, creed or political factors.
I pray with all my heart that Mr. Johnston, as well as the abducted Israeli soldiers, be delivered from their captivity to their families, safe and sound.

please release Alan may God have mercy on Him and cause His captors to see that God is love

I hope Alan is fine and i'm asking god to protect him and help him to be free. he's part of 成人快手 and you are all honest and nobel people.

God bless you Alan.
You may not remember me, but you were in the year above me at Dollar, and the reason that I remember you so well, is because you were a heart throb for a lot of the girls. I remember some of my crowd thinking that you were hot stuff, in fact, I think you went out with Fiona Pankhurst at one point.
My brother Pete, remembers you because he was a keen athlete, as you were too.
You and your family are very much in Dollar F.P.'s thoughts and prayers, and I know, from friends that I have kept in touch with, that you are having prayers said for you from all over the world.
May your captors be treating you well, and may your family continue to remain positive, and focus on the day of your forthcoming release.
You are always in our prayers. Shalom.

please god you get home alan one of the most impartial journalists about

Everyday when I wake up and switch to 成人快手 station and hear that Alan is still in captivity, I feel discouraged and do always mention him in my morning prayers so that he can be released soon. I miss you Alan.

I will add the link to a website that I manage - and sign your petition.

However I suspect there are far more useful and positive steps that could be being taken.

Why not give us the email addresses of influential Palestinian leaders so that we can all write to them direct?
This might bring the need to act to their attention far more effectively than an undeliverable petition in a land far away.
Your Middle East correspondents should be able to tell us who we could write to.

Bon courage mr Johnston, mes pens茅es sont avec vous.

What is the meaning of this sad story?
Journalist captivity still going on and no good news for Alan?!
I dont get it . . .

i have added 2 both my piczo sites hope he is free soon

i am putting the button on my myspace page - i really hope he has a safe and speedy return home.

RELEASE ALAN!!!

Our prayers are with you. Jesus loves you and he died for you. He will never let you down.

Please it's not been easy for his family and love ones. So l am pleading with you in the name of Allah and almighty God it's a long 100 days let him go home to join his love ones l beg you from my heart set him free. Allah will reward you beautifully. Thank you.

I would appreciate if who sover responsible for the detention this just journalist Allan Johnston, let him/her release him for the sake of peace as his family are really in need of him.He is just an ordinary reporter who work for the betterment of me and you, because he relayed our problems to the world.

I trust and pray that the people that abducted Alan will find love in their hearts and release him back to his family

I feel for Alan and his family. Despite all the work Alan was doing to keep the plight of Palestinians in the news, he still wasn't safe. What has occured is despicable and cowardly. Alan is a brave journalist who risked his life because he felt the Palestinians had a story to tell. I have signed the 成人快手 petition, but if anyone has any influence, please release him

I have added the button in my blog.
My thoughts are with Alan and his family.
Hoping sincerely that he is back soon.

My thoughts are with the Johnston family at this difficult and worrying time. I hope the strong public support for Alan helps in some way - like so many others I only wish I could do more to help.

The captors of Alan should know that this action is deplorable and should therefore release him immediately. Their action hurts the process of forging the much needed peace in the region. Am certain that this action is not representative of the aggrieved in the conflict. So release Alan.

I do not have much to say. Whatever someone is fighting for may be their own case, but journalists, reporters etc. are just telling the rest of the world what is going on from a (hopefully) neutral perspective.
The only ones harming those are those who are agains freedom.
This tells more about Hamaz than journalists in general.
If Hamaz does not agree with 成人快手's view of the world, they should simply not talk 成人快手, that is their choice. Not this.

I'm a Muslim and all i beg for is for the kidnappers to release Alan coz another day in captivity is disturbing and it's not doing good our brothers and sisters in Palestine.Think of this; Alan was the only Western journalist covering Gaza showing the suffering and oppression Gazans go through in their daily lives! Whoever did it should know that it's against Islam. I am always praying for Alan and other journalists arrested,kidnapped in many parts of the world.

Please enough of this psychological torture on Alan.He's only a reporter reporting on your own suffering.So why use him as a political pawn.Please release him without further delay.Hope these calls does not fall on dath ears.Thanks

I hope he comes home safely

could ALAN JOHNSTON please be released.He was just trying to bring awareness to the plight of the people in the region.
PLEASE HAVE MERCY MR.KIDNAPPER & ASSOCIATES and release him to do his work.

HELLO
I WISH AND PRAY EVERY DAY FOR THE SAFE RETURN OF ALAN,FOR HIS AND MEDIA SAKE AND THE POSSETIVE EFFECT OF HIS PRESENCE IN THE AREA FOR THE PELESTINANS FAMILY INTREST.

Please enough is enough. Let him go back to his family.

it is a shame that you stiil holding alan. alan loved palestine. please let him go without further delay. we pray for you brother alan.

My thoughts and prayers are with you Alan. May God grant your captors the wisdom and compassion to set you free for you don't deserve to suffer - no one deserves to suffer.

I support the move to free Alan and want the people involved in this activity to take a note of the pain and trauma suffered by his near and dear ones.

Alan Johnston was kidnapped while serving humanity. His ordeal is a challenge to all civilized people who cherish the human right to access information.

I support all the good-hearted people who are demanding Alan's immediate release.

Alan, the whole decent world stands with you and we are sure you will soon be back with us. Be of good cheer.

He is in my prayers. I pray that God would toucht the hearts of those who have captured him

I guess I'm not alone in becoming attached to these guys (the correspondents), after all we see them almost every night on our television screens.
It's incredibly sad when things like this happen.
small gesture I know but I've added Alans banner to my myspace page
here's hoping for his safe release very soon.

God is with Allan and he shall surely be released.I hope and pray for his well being.Allan you are always in our prayers.

We have added the button to our web page and to our blog.
We hope with all our heart that he will be free soon.

The Wassem Family
