#1 If the reporters all leave, who would the Terrorist show off to? Who would hear thier message? Sometimes Jacques dose'nt think.

#2 Maybe the ransom budget is drained and that's why he wants them out.

#3 I suspect she was not grabbed by space aliens.
If Chirac can't be botherd to protect his citizens why should we? We are the evil incarnate according to your French media you don't need our help.

#5 Any background on her "interperter"? Those are usually pretty interesting when they come to light.

#6 She isn't hard on the eyes. Makes you wonder if you could get past the BO and armpit hair.

#9 Frank G/com - I favor worn-out neck ties and panty hose. Yes thank you, I am doing my part to recycle.

#10 Doc - You're too modest, heh. I think you must've helped out Al Zarqi, then, with his fashion sense and image. It appears that he's wearing black pantyhose on his head - in the latest "tuck in the ends" - aka "The Seamless Look" style... you know the one - from behind one can see there is a cute bow. I used to marvel at the precision with which the Saudis styled their kaffiyeh, with a crisp crease, the folds set just so, and the fan belt, a crowning glory, for that layered look and set at just the right janty angle, for that air of mystery and elan. Very spiffy!

#11 Who says the French can't learn? Pay ransom for kidnapped reporters and suprise!suprise!suprise! the terrorists will kidnap another.

#12 Stephen...so true!

I guess she thought that she'd be OK cause the terrorists would see her as French instead of as an infidel.

I feel very sorry for her, but if there is a silver lining, it might be that the Euro's and lefties finaly get a clue that criticising Jews and Americans or sympathizing terrorists will shelter them from the Islamist threat about as much as blacks were sheltered from the wrath of the KKK by criticising other blacks or trying to understand their motives. Bottom line...we're all infidels...just like to the KKK, all were black. One dead is as good as another.

#13 President Jacques Chirac said he was concerned by Aubenasâ disappearance and urged journalists not to go to Iraq.

Ask your buddy Kofi for help. The virtuous UN can fix anything, right?

#14 Dammit, .com! Now whenever I see Al-Zarqawi I'm going to think of that scene in "Raising Arizona"!
"Son, you've got a panty on your head!"

#15 "Dammit, I said panty hose, not panty liners!"
