Did you read that article? It's full of BS.

The Italian journalist wounded by American troops in Iraq after her release by insurgents ... declined Sunday to rule out the possibility she was deliberately targeted.

BS - How could she possibly rule out something she can't know?

The fact that the Americans don't want negotiations to free the hostages is known," Sgrena told Sky TG24 television by telephone

BS - Americans favor negotiations as a tool for releasing hostages. What may be opposed to is rewarding kidnappers with money, because that just encourages kidnapping, but that doesn't translate into opposing negotiations to free hostages.

"The fact that they do everything to prevent the adoption of this practice to save the lives of people held hostages, everybody knows that. So I don't see why I should rule out that I could have been the target."

More BS. Sounds like she's not very objective if you ask me. I haven't heard of Americans doing everything possible to prevent saving the lives of hostages.

Why do you post this crap??
