This shooting should be investigated, of course, but the media coverage conveniently overlooks that these guys just gave millions for the terrorists to use to buy weapons with which to kill Americans.

Precisely correct. The Italians have sold us out by giving millions of dollars to terrorists that they will use to buy weapons and ammunition. These weapons will be used to maim and kill our soldiers and marines. What kind of an ally does this kind of BS? They should have let this stupid "journalist" stay in Iraq until they could rescue her without paying any ransom. What was she doing there in the first place? Why did Italy allow some stupid writer to visit Iraq and get herself into all kinds of trouble? The Italian government needs to wake up and smell the espresso.
