That post lifesaver made in the Random thread last week comes to mind.
She goes off to WeHateAmericans-istan to thump her bibles because she wants to, gets her ass kidnapped, and now expects us to save her?
Give me a break.

I didn't realize she was doing any activist work there; I thought she simply went as a freelancer to cover the situation.
The CSM has a big office out of Boston, so there's been quite a bit of talk about it here. In J-School, I remember a foreign correspondent telling us how we could get into the field; you either get a chance with a big paper, or freelance. Freelancers can get some great stories and find a paper, but you're really taking your safety into your own hands.
It's a sad story, but she had to know what she was getting herself into.
ETA: Hopefully they'll be able to rescue her before anything worse happens.
