There are actualy rumors going around that she told a friend that was on the other end of a cell phone, that she thought the driver was going too fast and she thought it would be ironic if after this they all crashed.
As for Stockholm Syndrome; she stated in an interview that she ask the kidnappers why they took her, some one who was on their side, and not americans. So ya, I think she was allready on their side long before she got kidnapped.
SE, you'll never make any Euros (except Brittians) like us becasue they hate we're not cowards like them, stick up for our belifes and don't roll over when ever someone states they don't like us. Can we help it if we're acutaly proud of who we are?
While I admit that the Itilan PM is, next to Bliar, one of our best allies, the Itilan people have allwayse pissed me off. A few years ago I was walking across BYU campus with a Japanese friend and we ran into someone she knew form her ESL (english as a second language) class who was itilan. After a few minutes of talking the Gaurd member took down the US flag, which we happend to be standing near (JKHB) so I saluted along with most every one else. After words the Itilan girl started to make fun of me, an americans in general, for doing so and calmly stated something along the lines that I was showing respect to the freedoms I have here and the solders fighting in afganistan. She then started to talk about how horrible of a place america was and that I shouldn't show respect to anything dealing with it. And this got me mad. I asked her why she was here then if it was such a horrible place, and she stated "Well becasue I cannot get into school in Italy nor could a get a good paying job". Long story short I basicaly told her how mad it made me she was comming here, enjoying a life she couldn't in her home country, and do nothing by complane about how "horrible" it was. I then told her if she hated it so much she should leave and let someone else who would appreciate all she had here take her place. This pretty much shut her up.
I don't mind if people have problems with certain aspects of america, nothings perfect, but she had nothing good (or refused) to say about it.
