It doesn't appear that anyone has posted the answers to your questions directly, so...

1. This woman was kidnapped from the US when she was 5-6 years old by her Saudi father. She has an American mother and she was born in America so she is an American citizen).

2. Once she was in Saudi Arabia, she was held in a locked room for TWO YEARS, among other things.

3. When she was 18, she was married off, in an arranged marriage, to a Saudi man.

4. She was forced to bear his children.

5. Both her father and her husband were abusive.

6. She sought refuge for herself and her children at the American Embassy, which is American soil.

That covers the nuts and bolts of the background. Now you can join the discussion... but next time, please read the article before posting, so that 15 people don't have to type out the info that you could have read yourself. (You may have been out of the country for 6 weeks, but the article with most of this info is at the top of this thread, right?) :-)
