Release Alan Johnston by Virginia

Alan Johnston the BBC journalist was kidnapped in Gaza on the 12th March. He has reported from Gaza for the last 3 years when most Western journalists had already left the country. He has done a great deal to ensure that the suffering of the Palestinian people has not been forgotten.

Having been through the experience of our friend Norman Kember being kidnapped last year, we can imagine a little how Mr Johnston's family and friends are feeling. We hope the tape shown on Al Jazeera today is a sign that he is still alive and that he will be released soon.

Remember the suffering of the people of Palestine.

Remember Alan Johnston.
