Kember, a retired professor, is a longtime peace activist who once fretted publicly that he was taking the easy way out by protesting in safety at home while British soldiers risked their lives in Iraq.
I'm guessing if Kember is one of the hostages he's not thinking anythings "easy" about what he's experiencing now.

On the bright side they'll gain first hand experience of how the enemy treats their hostages.
