I believe parading hostages is against the Geneva convention. Period. I would bomb immediately to save face, the lives of my future countrymen and western civilization, but thats just me.

When they get her trained to do that tongue warbling trick the Pali pigs do when they're 'celebrating', that might ruin the whole ruse.

There is a word for that tongue warbling trick. It is called "ululating", or it can be described as to "ululate". Really.

If we had a lick of sense, we would have simply declared ourselves out of the U.N. after that debacle before we went into Iraq. We should have told the U.N. to stuff it, just think of the money we would save and how many of those third world backwaters would come running to kiss our evil American backside. No tickee no washee, baby. We would be the most beloved country in the world right now!

BTW, Iran's President Cantspellhisname did just that only days ago. They didn't make a peep, those b@lless wonders.

Iran is acting like a terrorists organization! Could it be that they actually are a terrorist organization?

"What's a woman doing in harm's way? I hear she's a wife and mother. Outrageous that she's in the military in a danger zone."

It once was that Western man would go to war to protect his wife, daughter, mother. Now we send them to war to protect us, and that is not very noble. And yet, every time a female "warrior" is captured they make a big stink out of it, as though her life is somehow more important than the males. And if it is, then why do we allow women into combat situations in the first place? It's hard to make sense of this world anymore.

Agree re: Post #18! I am constantly shaking my head in disbelief at the absolute silence from women's organizations around the world concerning Muslim women and the captured military women and their shameful treatment.

Until all countries treat all women and children with dignity and humanity...then, I think none of us has anything else to talk about!!! Period.

There comes a point where you write yourself off as dead. Then, you are completely free to act. Holding a gun to a mate's head? Charge headlong. Etc.

'ululate'?

It sounds like something dirty out of an unpublished chapter of the Kama Sutra.

> Whatever happened to that Fox reporter

Steve Centani is still on the air. I see him fairly regularly on FNC.

I think he's staying away from the Middle East, however.
