A little more about that Italian reporter gal...

... who was "kidnapped" in IRAQ. She's a reporter for an Italian, Communist, anti-American newspaper. Oh, and the Italian government just paid $1,000,000 to the terrorists to "free" her. Money that will be spent on killing Americans.

Mr. Harald Doornbos is a veteran war reporter. He is no archetypical hawk nor a staunch supporter of the United States.
