File under: al-Qaeda in Arabia

#1 UNICEF...the people who print those cute-sie Calendars drawn by kids in crayon? Like I have a LOT of interest in some UN personnel pushing calendars in Goombah Yemen, the heart of Quat and Kanjars. And he is from Sierra Leone, yeah? Hard to get into his problems even when I do know where Sierra Leone is which is more than most people can do.

Kidnapped for WHAT? ransom? Like what is a calendat pusher in goombah worth? Or was it just to put a burr under the UN's tail? The question IS:Is it inscrutably profitable to jack the UN for some dink from africa ?
"think of the children"

And being an AMBASSADOR from Deutchland in Yeman? That must be prestigious as all hell. Never take a job where you need a Bodyguard ( good advice ) and actually being a bodyguard...well...even for the money where is this one going to spend his? 'Nuff said. Spell Stupid.

#2 Being kidnapped for ransom is practically a tourist activity in Yemen, and a regular source of income for the locals, Spereting Tingle4064, one reason I was glad Mr. Wife did not accept that assignment.

Oh, and some Rantburgers are actually professional bodyguards in places like Yemen and Libya and Iraq. They might disagree with your characterization. Verb sap, and all that.
