Faye Turney And Iran Hostages Strike It Rich

by | 8th, April 2007

NEWS today that MOD has decided the 15 captives can sell their stories to the Press – Faye Turney reported to have already sold story of her ordeal for £100k.

As Craig Murray, a former head of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office’s maritime section, said.

“….the idea that you can make several years’ pay out of being captured – as opposed to not being captured and doing your job normally – is a rather strange incentive system.”

Just about sums it up, really. Seems, nowadays, failure is more rewarded than success – at least in miltery quarters!
