Italians fall out of love with 'two Simonas'

A pity they weren't the stars in an islamic snuff film...

These two twits do not deserve to live where good people are dying!

They are beyond contempt, as all zeropeans are!

[Aeronaut]

Yeah, what he said!

[mewzilla]

Italy's adoration of the "two Simonas", the women aid workers abducted in Iraq, began to sour yesterday, as the extent of their sympathy for the Iraqi fight against the allied occupation became clear.

Took'em long enough.

I wonder if they will have repay the ransom?

[Kolokotronis]

Probably a put up job!

[BradyLS]

What are the chances they were brainwashed?

[SilentServiceCPOWife]

I will preface this by saying that my husband is not a conspiracy theorist, but he thinks that this whole thing was a scam to get money for the "insurgents" and that the women were willing participants.

Please read about today's hostage *rescue* by US troops in Samarra, one that didn't involve giving a million dollars to fund the insurgents bombs while encouraging far more hostage taking: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1233406/posts

[BradyLS]

That's possible, too. I hear they want to go BACK.

[Slings and Arrows]

May the spirit of Fabrizio Quattrocchi haunt these hags to their graves.

The resistance struggle of people against an occupying force is guaranteed by international law."

Soundslike she's working for the Kerry campaign.

To set the record straight for these 2 red bastards and their socialist friends in the Democratic party in this country, the US are liberators, not occupiers.

Better yet send them back to the beheading jihadi's

Ungrateful bitches, now turned to the dark side of Islam, The Cult of Death™.

I hope the Italians are quite happy that they payed a million dollars to get these women back, ensuring future kidnappers will keep up their trade. Stockholm syndrome is alive and well.

[mbennett203]

Well, Kristian, let me tone down my rage, because you're on our side (at least).

I know not everyone in Europe hates bush (just the vast, *overwhelming* majority.). I too hope they're forced to repay the money that was paid to save their lives, in turn only to stab Italian soldiers fighting these fascists in the back.

BTW, if Europe pisses you off too much, you're always welcome here.

As I recall, those gals were let loose Monday. Today is Saturday. Who knows how long they were held undergoing medical checks and being debriefed?

Do you remember the noble Italian gentleman, who tore off his hood and screamed , "THIS is how an Italian dies!" , as the bad guys cut his throat?

The Italians as a whole have been nothing but stalwart in our support. Berlescuni has said he will maintain their presence.

Just because these two gals have either lost their minds, have Stockholm Syndrome or really ARE ungrateful wretches, I don't think it is fair to judge the entire Italian population based on what they do.



Besides, it appears the Italians are turning their backs on them.
