Hostage tells of saviour dying in her arms [$6m to $8m ransom paid by Italians?]

Yep, they didn't wast the Americans to know that the left-wing Italians were funding the terrorists.

as I noted in another thread, I can already see several inconsistencies in the Italian stories

Reuters, who had one of the initial reports, reported that this woman was already wounded when she was picked up and the reason the car was speeding was the driver was trying to get her to medical help asap

but she says they weren't driving fast

the boyfriend says there was was a bright light shone on the car, she says there was no bright light shone of the car, ah the inconsistency

and yes I have even less sympathy knowing the Italians were stupid enough to pay that kind of ransom money to insurgents or just plain old Iraqi criminals to continue killing Iraqis and coalition troops....

I think one less Italian communist journalist is a small price to pay, selfish bitch
