Still from her video clip here:

Are you nuts?? First of all this dimwit never should have been there. Second, she's a brainless twit! Third, like all effete elitist socialist morons she's an anti-American stooge for terrorists. I say run her over with an Israeli bulldozer. Corrie needs company!
NOTHING. Just keep her trap shut!
Oh, ug. Glad it got pulled. Whatever else I think of her, I don't want her hurt or killed. (Jailed, maybe...)
She's as goofy and ridiculous as these Christian Peace Team members.
I would never criticize what she said while still under control of her captors...the video that they made and released via internet.
What was very troubling to me was the video widely broadcast today that was made by the Sunni party when she entered their headquarters immediately after being dropped on the street. Nothing that I read made it entirely clear whether she still felt in jeopardy at that point. I am inclined to think she did. If not, I would judge her statements emphasizing how well she was treated and "not threatened" to be contemptible. She seems to be in good shape and needs to come forward quickly with a full statement either repudiating or standing behind today's remarks.
At some point while she was inside the Sunni party headquarters, the U.S. military was called and sent a convoy to retrieve her. The newspapers do not make clear the exact sequence. It seems plausible that she did her interview there before the Army arrived, perhaps before it was called. My impression is that she may not have been entirely confident that she was safe.
Me too, and probably before you were!
The only reason she is alive is because she is more valuable to the terrorists alive that she would be dead.
They milked her for her immediate value and now they let her milk herself for the propaganda value. What a stupid cow she is.
This is what I was talking about, Miz.
Posts like #83 are nauseating and reflect poorly on all freepers.
Jill Carroll wondered from day to day whether she would grow old or die a hostage.
"It was like falling off a cliff for three months, waiting to hit the ground," the 28-year-old American reporter said Thursday after her kidnappers released her.

I'm with you - the woman is a plant.
A poll should be done among all of us with the following question: If you were caught by Mujahadeen, would you praise them or praise the Americans?
She lived in fear for her life, every day for 3 months:
>>>Three months without exercise had made her face round. Her captors had treated her well, she said, and she never dared turn down their offers of meals or candy for fear of giving offense. I'm fat, she said.<<<

More like she lived high off the hog with her comrades. Geez, kidnap me - warm bed and all the Twinkies I can eat!
Well stated. My feelings exactly.
