Does your country have anything like that television program available to views during evening prime time hours?
We get CrimeWatch, that's probably the closest thing. Reconstructions, pictures/photofits, requests for witnesses, etc. Whether it's successful is debatable...

Do you get tape delayed America's Most Wanted tv program as well?
Maybe on some of the more esoteric (or desperate) cable/satellite channels... it certainly isn't widespread!

The difficulty with assessing terrorism comes when you have (some) sympathy with their aims, even if not their means... as an extreme example, what if Iraq asked for the extradition of a Kurdish separatist terrorist who'd provenly blown up public buildings and killed innocent people? Would you send him over if it were a hospital? How about a police station, or an army base...?

But I'm never keen on dragging up old wrongs, anyhow. Which I guess is one more reason I'm no terrorist myself :)
