Couldn't / wouldn't stick around the Consulate long enough to allow the public to bring pressure on the Bush admin?

Now I want to know more, a lot more. Most mothers I've known would of fought like h*## for their children. Not an attack just an observation.

Sarah was kidnapped from her American mother, who had custody, when she was six, by her Saudi father, and forced into an arranged marriage when she was young. I wonder how much attachment one would have to children born under those conditions. It's not like she grew up in a culture where force marriages are the norm.

Even in those cultures, the suicide rate for young wives in forced marriages is quite high. The husbands can legally rape, beat, and otherwise mistreat the women and nobody will ever come to their aid.

I think if I were impregnanted by a rapist I'd have a hard time feeling attached to the child. Thank goodness I was never in her shoes.
