If I was Silvio, I'd rather pay the terrorists to take Communists off my hands.

I'd rather pay the terrorists to take Communists off my hands.What a good idea. I hadn't thought of this, but he should have paid them (not very much) to keep her.

I hope Italy sticks with their part of the bargain -- ransom is a bad idea.
What's up with the last two paragraphs of this article. Is this some kind of tinfoil-hat conspiracy theory?

too bad they don't all feel the same as that one brave hostage they killed who refused the blind fold, saying "I will show you how an Italian dies"..or along those lines

The Italian team should have known what to expect, but it appears they didnt realise how sophisticated the American military are, said Selva. Well now, they haven't been paying attention for the last 2 or 3 years then have they? Pfft.

What really gets me is the fact that people will still believe that American soldiers targeted this vehicle on purpose, even with Italian authorities telling them different.

That must be the most expensive communist pig ever! Is it worth the crap she writes?
To: MadIvan
"Selva claimed that the attack on the Toyota Corolla carrying Sgrena and Nicola Calipari, the intelligence officer, to Baghdad airport had been prompted by a satellite monitoring system. This detected that their vehicle did not have clearance from US military authorities. A signal alerted a mobile checkpoint near the airport and its soldiers opened fire."
This stupid bitch would be dead already if the US Army was guilty of what she has alleged.

Ransom of Red Cheek. Veddy poor ROI. If he'd left her there the "insurgents" would have converted to Catholicism by now.
To: MadIvan

If I was Silvio, I'd rather pay the terrorists to take Communists off my hands. It would end up in a "The Ransom of Red Chief" sort of situation.
To: MadIvan
The Italian gov't should toss the communist journalist back to the terrorists.
I wish they'd replay the video showing her pleading for her life over and over again. What a clown.
To: MadIvan
I hope Gustavo Selva is right. The allies should all have the same single policy regarding kidnappings. PERIOD.
What particularly galls many Italians is that Sgrena considereed herself among friends. She even declared that her crying and begging for mercy was "hammed up" in agreement with the terrorists.
Though that wasn't known, it was common knowledge that she was ideologically on the side of the enemy... and that being known, no effort at all, either through ransom-paying or military action should've been made to free her. She was already free. It was her pondered choice to be foolish, her choice to be with friends. They should've left her to boil in her own broth.

I don't believe a promise from the weaselly Italians. They kept us in the dark the entire time. Why would they stop paying ransom to terrorists now? Because we asked them to?

In case you missed it, check out this thread:
About Giuliana Sgrena
This scumbag Sgrena cost a man his life, but I am not sure how much sympathy I have for him, either. I don't know if the dead security officer was ordered by his government to go "negotiate" for Sgrena's pitiful life, or if he wanted to help Sgrena because he liked her and sided with her politically, or if he was part of a kidnapping hoax orchestrated by Sgrena.
But no matter what, this experienced security officer HAD to know the protocol of civilian vehicular traffic in an area (the airport road) dangerous enough to require checkpoints and American troops. And regardless of that apparent incompetence, the root cause of the whole clusterf@@@ was that pig Sgrena.
