Three journalists for Al-Arabiya television, including a well-known woman correspondent, Atwar Bahjat, were kidnapped and killed today while covering sectarian violence in Samarr
the Americans/West did not kill them - their own countrymen did. why? becasue they tried to cover the news objectively?
but hindsight is 20/20 - whoever is to blame, Atwar's sister and mother have lost their vivacious girl - what could bring her back? Such an irrevocable & unbearable loss. And the world loses a rare professional and objective journalist
heartbreaking...
not to forget the American journalist, Jill Carroll who remains kidnapped to this day

I think death in general is bad. To put blame on anyone in this time frame would do nothing to bring back the people who have died. What I think is more sad is that we have to go through these extremes to fully appreciate all life.
true, point well take Jeff - at the same time responsibilty and justice should not be forgotten
