The Sanity Squad -- "Hey, Kidnappers Are People Too!"

Stockholm Syndrome: The Fox-Gaza Variations — Here’s how it seems to work these days.

You’re “The Press.” You’re working night and day to get “The Palestinian Story” told the Palestinian way out of Gaza. Your reward? You’re kidnapped by Palestinian killers, threatened with death and forced to convert to Islam with a gun to your head. “We were forced to lay face down again in the dirt with blindfolds on.” After 13 days you are released.

In response to this ordeal, you say concerned, kind and sensitive things about your abductors.

“I hope that this never scares a single journalist away from coming to Gaza to cover the story because the Palestinian people are very beautiful and kind hearted.”— Steve Centanni, Fox News.
What’s going on in your head? This week the PJM Sanity Squad of 4 mental health professionals takes an indepth look at the Islamic tradition of forced conversions.
