I think this young woman is so enamored with the culture and people there that they could have bitch-slapped her everyday and she would still say they treated her well. I smell a rat as well and feel that this was all Islamic propoganda-maybe not intentionally on her part but they smelled a sucker and used it. I am hoping that she is keeping her mouth shut to possibly protect other hostages whom they have threatened to kill if she talks.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who was thinking this. Everything about this "abduction" and her statements yesterday is totally inconsistent with the jihadists' methods.

Before I make up my mind concerning Jill Carroll I'm waiting for her to hit the talk show circuit. She'll be on the AM talk shows, probably as early as next week. Barbara Walters, rest assured (as I type this), is trying to get an exclusive interview. The only thing precluding Jill Carroll not appearing on a AM talk show ... is her agreeing to an exclusive interview, in which case she'll appear on the AM shows, Larry King Live, etc., after the exclusive.

How about Manchurian Candidate?

[jpsb]

Would you rather her head was chopped off on live TV? Give it a break, I am happy she was released and is still alive.

[rattrap]

I think the whole story is BS, I'd be far more suprised to find out it was true than I would be to find out it was a set-up.

[Dick Vomer]

yep... she's pretty much like the Italian "unbiased" reporterette that was "kidnapped". Useful idiot alert.

[Unicorn]

It stinks big time.

[TChris]

I'll take "Willing Participant" for 500, Bob.

They let her go when they all realized they'd ridden that horse as far as she'd go.

[Bon mots]

Another leftist skank sympathizer.

The whole story reminds me of that dopey German hostage (Susanne Osthoff) that the idiot German government paid ransom money for... later to find some of the money (marked bills) in the possession of the lunatic hostage woman.

Then she does some interview on German television dressed up in the wackiest taliban ninja getup, and she went on ranting all sorts of crazy pro-islamic crap...

[uncitizen]

And she said she didn't know where she was because altho there were windows, the glass was frosted and she couldnt see out of it and plus their were curtains.

OK, so what if there were curtains? Cannot curtains be moved aside? Maybe not if you're handcuffed and tied to a chair....

I could tell when she said that part about the curtains that she regretted saying it right away. She realized it made no sense to mention curtains if the windows were frosted anyway.

[samcgwire]

That be Jill C.

[Ditter]

I am not one to jump to conclusions before facts are known but......... Mr. Ditter has been VERY suspicious about this woman from her kidnapping. I'm waiting for her book deal before I decide. heh

[hosepipe]

Wonder how many times she was raped?...
Maybe as many as John McLaim(and caught on 8mm reels) in the Hanoi Hilton..
You know by those friends(Viets) of Hillary Clinton..
Wonder if Hillary has those tapes?.., oh well..

Could be the same syndrome..

[Big Guy and Rusty 99]

what were her lies? I kind of caught the release story from the corner of my eye on fox news. what did she say?

[A knight without armor]

This is very petty minded of me I know. But after hearing how she immersed herself in the Arab culture for three years and was so into the respect and all I was a tad taken back to see her bare headed with grown out Kool Aid red hair!
