My Way News - Video Post Shows Captured BBC Reporter: "GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) - A video recording released Monday shows kidnapped British journalist Alan Johnston wearing an apparent explosives belt of the type suicide bombers use and warning it will be detonated if an attempt is made to free him by force. The video, about one minute, 42 seconds long, was posted on a Web site that has been used by militant groups in the past. It opens with the title 'Alan's Appeal' in both English and Arabic and features the logo of the Army of Islam, a shadowy group that has claimed responsibility for snatching Johnston, a British Broadcasting Corp. correspondent. 'Captors tell me that very promising negotiations were ruined when the Hamas movement and the British government decided to press for a military solution to this kidnapping,' Johnston says in the recording, looking nervous and stressed. 'And the situation is now very serious, as you can see.' Johnston is seen wearing a red sweater with a blue and white checked vest strapped around his body - the apparent bomb belt."
