and nylons, don't forget the nylons.
Which explains why she told her shopping companions that she would meet them, still inside the store where they separated, in a few minutes after they separated.
Try again.
"2) She was in a group of 5, apparently inside a store, she separated from the group *inside the store*, and was apparently kidnapped then."
It was this paragraph below from the New York Times that really raised some antennas.
"Kyrgyz police officials said the stores security videotapes recorded her walking out of the store alone. They also said her cellular phone records showed she had called numbers outside Bishkek and that witnesses said she traveled by car to a bus station on the capitals eastern side."
I hope she broke his larynx.
She got married in April.
Try again.
The Air Force release says the security tape caught her walking into the store, but if she thought she had a (small) bomb in her back pocket, or just a gun pointed at her, she may very well have walked out "alone", or apparently alone, but under coercion none the less.
The release also says that calls were made *to* her phone, and the location of the phone was near the bus station. Possible translation problems, but she could very well have been forced to make calls.
I'll definitely believe her statements to the Kryghz police over anything I read in the NYT.
While the Air Force is not having trouble filling it's slots, the Army is, both officer and enlisted. Without the women, they'd not be filling them at all. As it is, they are forcing, or have forced by now, many AFROTC grads to choose between no commission and switching over to an Army commission. (A high school and college buddy did just the opposite in '72, he'd wanted to fly helicopters, and went through Army ROTC, but then they said his vision wasn't good enough , so he switched to AF, became a bomb/nav on B-52s, and later an R&D engineer at Wright Patterson, and retired as, IIRC, a Major. Lost track of him after that.
"The release also says that calls were made *to* her phone, and the location of the phone was near the bus station. Possible translation problems, but she could very well have been forced to make calls."
If you can direct me to that release I would appreciate it, I am trying to follow this story closely, but almost no information is getting out yet.
LOL!
Oh, yea, I am sure the terrorists are shaking in their boots!
You have been watching to many movies.
As for a women being able to defend themselves, ofcourse, they should.
But men are the first line of defense.
There is no excuse for any American women being exposed to combat.
The real reason why women are being exposed to combat, (along with the Feminist agenda) is that too many American men (males) prefer it that way so they do not have to take responsibilty for defending the nation.
Thanks...I was only speaking for the USAF. We haven't had BTZ to Major for some time now.
The subordination of women is a practice that extends across various religions and cultures.
The MEN were raped?
Of course, their captors were Muslim Arabs, were they not?
I would appreciate the source for that information, I have been unable to find it.
thanks
"NBC National News on TV says she was found wandering, beaten with her hair cut and hair dyed near a police station in Bishkek."
This is from Air Force Times;
"She resurfaced around midnight Sept. 8 when she knocked on the door of a farmhouse in Kant, about 15 miles outside Bishkek, and told the family there she had been kidnapped.
John Metzger said she escaped her captors and ran to the farmhouse, where a family helped her and called police."
"I can't figure out why the military and the government are hiding the results of the extraordinary efforts that we know are taking place right now in the search for the kidnappers, or terrorists."
Because there aren't any. She's a loon. Why do you think there's no more info on this?
"Because there aren't any. She's a loon. Why do you think there's no more info on this?"
I have scoured the web and find nothing new, including not a word about the raids etc.
I am waiting for El Gato to send me the links to the information he is getting though.
Is that ozone I smell?
This account has been banned or suspended.
I never said I had any sources, I was just making an observation on the well known proclivities of some people from that part of the world.
I saw something on the MSM TV last night (?) that her story has changed so many times and is so preposterous that it stinks. She's also asked for counsel.
Remember. This is "TV" news, but it sure seems odd that the story has literally disappeared.
