I mean, ever since she was freed last week she has constantly been in the spotlight (you hear next to nothing about the other hostages). And now she's giving advice to Alvaro Uribe and the Colombian government on what SHE thinks they should do regarding the FARC and not use "hate" language, etc. What has Ingrid Betancourt accomplished? What has she done that is so great? My understanding is that back in 2002, she decided to play the hero and march into the jungle to negotiate with the guerrillas - and was dumb enough to get kidnapped in the process! Now France wishes to honor her with Legion of Honour medal from President Nicolas Sarkozy next week! Tell me, does she really deserve this?Rita2000https://www.blogger.com/profile/10618776370944576980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12265028.post-16168071018454113292008-07-07T18:04:00.000-07:002008-07-07T18:04:00.000-07:00As a liberal and a Colombian I find your gullibili...As a liberal and a Colombian I find your gullibility laughable.
