Key hostage talks hinge on bargaining over two captives
Waite told AP that some in Beirut would trade for the two captives as a bargaining counter while he would try to survive. He canceled a crucial meeting after clashes between Druse and Shiite militiamen guarding him. He remained hopeful about freeing Anderson and Sutherland as violence eased. Anderson, 39, is AP’s Middle East chief. Sutherland, 55, was a agriculture dean at the American University of Beirut. Islamic Jihad claims to have killed William Buckley in October 1985 amid probes into funding.
