#3 "Haaretz is reporting it is James Bennet, from the New York Times."

NYT, eh? So which is more likely: that he'll abandon the standard NYT bias or that the passenger pigeon will be brought back from extinction? You make the call.

#4 Now, this will be interesting. Will the NYT even report it?

#5 Probably not, maybe mentioning it as a group of "misguided militants". But had Mr. Bennet been nabbed, you know who the NYT would blame.
