From the mind of IGTG:

captors not reported = captors are CIA

Her translator was killed in the attack about 300 yards from al-Dulaimi's office.


So much focus about an american woman who lived, so little focus about her aide who died.

What was his/ her name?
Did he/ she have children?
How old was he/ she?
Why did he/she have to die?
Was she/he sunni, shiite or other?
What did she/he do to deserve dying?

Before you criticize, I have always been interested and would like to raise these points now she has been released, in case in the joy we feel for her release we forget the sorrow of those who never came back to us.

Stole my thunder.

Substitute "Bush family/Skull and Bones global conspiracy" for "CIA," though.


You two are just rude. Still, why do i get the feeling you actually enjoy the sniping? Hmmmmmmmm ... thankfully i don't get easily offended by such childish attacks & false assumptions.

The fact remains, i've been following this story since in broke a few days ago and have yet to hear anyone on CNN ( or elsewhere ) ask the question "WHO" exactly her kidnappers were.

Not exactly what should be ranked as quality journalism.

Perhaps Jill herself will help to shed some light on this matter. She presumably spoke with her captors. Did she get a chance to engage them without their masks? What did they tell her as far who they were & what group they represented? Presumably their conversations were mostly in ARABIC.

It will be interesting to see what she herself has to say on this matter directly.

IGTG:

Did you check out NPR? For what it's worth...

The previously unknown Revenge Brigades claimed responsibility. Even though the group threatened twice in videotapes to kill Carroll, she said, "They never hit me. They never even threatened to hit me."

The Italian news agency ANSA reported that Carroll underwent a medical checkup at the American hospital in the Green Zone.
