Yeah but most of those kidnapped by the terrorists are dead no matter what they say or do. Begging just makes for a more enjoyable video for the jihadists.
Thats my point. Jill..just some chit wearing a veil feeling all righteous..
Ditto. Still a whiff of something fowl here.
We'll know if the MSM keeps "pushing" her story. If she takes their side, she'll be on Oprah, Larry King, Today, Bill Maher, etc faster than a liberal can raise taxes.
If she doesn't start showing up there, then maybe she's on the up and up.
Someday they're going to figure this out.
Clothes are clothes ~ Western women are correctly dressed only in hiphuggers. Eastern women still wear dresses and gowns.
A lot of this depends on the thoroughness of the surgeons to repair damage wrought during childbirth in less advanced countries.
Ever hear of a 3rd degree episiotomy?
What a terrible experience. Apparently she made her earlier statements out of fear. As long as she was in Iraq she was frightened of her captors, and who can blame her?
I think we should all have compassion on her and let this go.
How does one's religion make you see the other side?
St. Paul, in I Cor. 1-l: 24, tells women to cover their hair in church.
I have to laugh at posters who, from the comfort of their homes, find joy in criticising the statements of a 28yo young woman which were either made while in captivity, or shortly thereafter while still in country -- after having been held by subhuman monsters who frequently remove the heads from their captives with butcher knives. Talk about Monday morning quarterbacking.
Indeed...many of our brave men and women are trained to say what it takes to stay alive and get free. Why do some FReepers hold her to a higher standard than the brave men and women in our military? I don't get it.
She isn't/wasn't in the military. She's not under the same speech constraints regarding loyalty to the U.S. AND she's a woman.
What do people expect her to do? Advertise that she wants to be raped? Cut her some slack here.
IMHO, Jill got daddied up. He had a long talk with her over the phone and told her, her rhetoric wasn't jiving with the American public and she better do a complete 360 and that's exactly what she did.
Totally agree.
Why did she refuse to debrief with the U.S. Military? She could have given them some valuable info, but she deliberately chose not to.
"I'm waiting for a few apologies from many who were quick to condemn her before she even made it to free soil."
You might hve a long wait.
To each his own.
0I heard the silly cow said that she still believed that the war to be 'illegal.'
For the love of pete, can somebody tell me how any person might actually believe that to be true?
Is there any such thing as illegal war?
I'm no political scientist, but we as a sovreign nation declared war on Iraq, long ago. In 1991, as I understand it there was only a cease fire, no actual armistice. And so 2003 only saw the resumption of hostilities.
Can you read? She said that wasn't the case.
