That sounds reasonable. Whether your friend is really a hostage or is 
actually conniving with the enemy by pretending to be a hostage, you could 
treat it as if a hostage and if you really don't care about the hostage 
them you can go to war with the "friend" then attack.

But mind you I know virtually nothing about all this allies stuff. Can 
units of different players occupy the same tile at present/already, or is 
all this stuff in the future? I actually never imagined that in Civ two 
players would occupy the same tile however "friendly" they might be...
