Thread Name: Lori Berenson gets 20 years!
Subject: RE: Lori Berenson gets 20 years!
I wasn't there, so I don't know.
Either verdict is possible---and,
Why do "Americans" seem to have to "improve" whatever gov't exists?
How could she not know that munitions/materiels were stored in "her" house?
"Missionaries"??? Let's not go there.....
Peru is better than Sinapore or Turkey; so she'll probably come back to the US. Or Afgahanistan...
If she is willing to leave Peru......just why does she "love" it so much?
As a Mexican National pointed out to me once (in Mexico),
"United States? I am from the United States also, Los Estados Unidos de Mexico--and Mexico is in North AMERICA also--what makes YOU more American or from the United States than me?"

"America" seems to run from at least the Artic Circle to Tierra de Fuegos.......

(sorry, rant over, come get the soapbox)
