Dressed in traditional garb worn by Islamic women, Christian Science Monitor Free Lance reporter Jill Carroll appeared on television after being released by her Islamic captors after nearly 3 months after being taken hostage by an Islamic Terror group called “The Vengance Brigade”.

Don’t get me wrong, I am extremely happy that Carroll was released, but being the inquisitive Jew that I am, I find myself highly suspicious of her story and of her being a hostage.

Arab men, Islamic men in particular don’t exactly hold women in very high regard.

Under the Taliban in Afganistan, women were forbidden from holding jobs and going to school. 

Thoughout the Arab world, women are forbidden from leaving the home without a male family member.  Honor killings occur frequently…Why was Jill Carroll treated with more respect then most Islamic women?  Was she really being held against her will or was this a stunt by a Left wing peacenik trying to exploit the Left wing mainstream media for her own purpose?

I feel that these are questions that need to be asked.

Jill Carroll’s ”kidnappers” had set a “final deadline” of Feb. 26th for their demands to be met or else they would kill her.  The deadline came and went, yet 32 days later she was freed.

It would be the second deadline set by her abductors, who have repeatedly said they will kill Carroll if the United States does not release all female prisoners it has in custody in Iraq.

Why suddenly did Islamic men all of a sudden care about women prisoners?  Why not their comrades that are behind bars for terrorist activities?

According to Amnesty International, women in the Arab world deserve more respect and dignity.

They are discriminated against and their potential and capabilities are usually ignored.  In the home and in the community, in times of war and peace, women are beaten, raped, mutilated and killed with impunity.

In past videos featuring Americans who were being held hostage and later executed, they were shown wearing orange jumpsuits.  Why was Jill Carroll allowed to dress in a traditional Islamic outfit worn by Arab women?.

Several Islamic groups called for her release and were condemning her capture.  Where was their cries for help when Daniel Pearl, Nick Berg and Paul Johnson, all of whom were later beheaded by the monsters who kidnapped them?  The Muslim world stood silent.  But alas, the pleas and the calls for release were loud as hell for Jill Carroll.  Why?

Am I the only one who questions this?  Is she a pawn for the peace movement or possibly a person that has fallen to the Stockholm Syndrome?  Let me know.  Email me roguejew65@sbcglobal.net and let me know what you think.

In the meantime, I am happy that Jill Carroll is on her way home to her family, but I still have to wonder.  Did she fake her own kidnapping?

Till Monday…..Shabbat Shalom!
