Opinion On Kidnapping In Somalia



Amanda Lindout, Canadian journalist, survived one year in custody after kidnapping in Somalia.

[From article]
So she went to Mogadishu, one of the most dangerous cities on the planet. It was so risky that many other journalists and aid workers had already gotten the hell out. Four days after she arrived in August, 2008, she and her photographer, an ex-boyfriend, were promptly kidnapped by a teenaged Somali gang.
Ms. Lindhout is now a media sensation.
