Islamic State Demands A $200 Million Ransom For Two Japanese Hostages

Washington Post: Islamic State demands $200 million ransom for two Japanese hostages

WNU Editor: Japans options on this case are very simple. A military rescue is not going to happen .... so for Japan it is "pay some money or not". My prediction .... they are not going to pay $200 million .... they are going to pay only a few million.
