Seems all the taped stuff was simply due to her having a gun to her head. As soon as she was stateside she denounced the bastards that took her.

The right wing press here, however, as shes not their type of Christian, is calling her a terrorist sympathizer and traitor. Sigh.

The stuff I saw was after her release but before flying back to the USA. TBVH terrorists can treat people adequately, which is what she said. I very much doubt if she supported any of their views though, she certainly didnt say anything in their support.

Im sure they treated her _well_ but if some guy with a gun said "Say this or die" id start talking!
