(Jerusalem Post) Yaakov Katz - American-Jewish student Benjamin Bright-Fishbein, an exchange student at Hebrew University in Jerusalem, was released unharmed Sunday after he was kidnapped by Palestinian gunmen while visiting Nablus on Saturday. Earlier, the kidnappers delivered a videotape to Reuters showing the 20-year-old student holding his Hebrew University ID and saying that he had been abducted. On tape he said his captors had threatened to kill him if Israel did not release Palestinian prisoners. In the end, after apparently realizing they were holding a U.S. citizen, the captors handed Bright-Fishbein over to the PA Preventive Security Service which then transferred him to the IDF. The kidnappers, the IDF said, were affiliated with the Al-Aksa Martyrs Brigades, an offshoot of PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah party. 2006-06-12 00:00:00Full Article
