My guess is insurance would not be obtainable for that area, or at least traditional travel insurance wouldn't be.

He said something about the Woman having a family member with ties to the Taliban or something like that. I wasn't really paying attention but we did laugh at the difference in reporting from Fox News & The Washington Post. |

However, she didn’t fly in, and - at face value - she was exceptionally naive, or perhaps willfully ignorant? Who knows? |

Looks like my memory let me down a little.
In disguise but maybe not as a man :o (it might have been a movie that confusled me) I believe it was Yvonne Ridley while working at the Sunday Express. I thought it was longer ago too. :unsure: I’d forgotten about her. |

Maybe maybe not. Kind of irrelevant to my point which was that the woman wasn't taken their by her husband she made her own stupid decision.

Re: Joshua Boyle
I'm going to raise it again from my earlier post.
He said the Taliban, whom he referred to by their official name – the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan – had carried out an investigation last year and conceded that the crimes against his family were perpetrated by the Haqqani network. This earlier time would have been while held captive by the network investigated by the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan. The Haqqani network told him the findings against their network? They allowed him contact with those investigating? He saw it on CNN while in captivity and his captors allowed him such freedoms? Anyone have any theories on this? Not really captive at all and the rescue was staged? |

Re: Joshua Boyle
Something is most certainly "off". If it smells like sh*t, it usually is.

Re: Joshua Boyle
There's something decidedly fishy about the whole thing. Joshua Boyle's narrative is not helped by his somewhat eclectic collection of beliefs - highlighted by the year or so he spent married to Zaynab Khadr in 2009-10 (he married Ms Coleman the following year). And the louder the various intelligence agencies shout that his visit to Afghanistan had "nothing to do" with his former marriage and was a series of unfortunate coincidences, the thinner becomes my ability to take them at face value...

I must go searching other websites to see if anyone has found any logic, particularly in reference to knowing about the result of the so called Taliban investigation. Also, can you fit two people and three children in the trunk of a car? |

This is - more or less - what I’m thinking too... For some reason, I can’t quote BristolUk, but I’m thinking the “trunk†of the vehicle MIGHT be one of those lost in translation moments... |
