MONDAY JULY 7: INGRID BENTACOURT RELEASED WOWO CELEBRATION! AFRICAYAYY

I just want to preface this as me thinking while this is a political story for me it is a great love story of a family who never gave up on their daughter, their lover, their wife, their mother, AAHH LOOVE

 

IT'S NOT TV IT'S HBO DARLING: DOCUMENTARY: THE KIDNAPPING OF INGRID BENTACOURT(2003) OK so a few year back it's a Sunday so ofcourse ME WATCHING HBO!!! and I happen upon a documentary about a woman called Ingrid Bentacour. Ingrid is French-Columbian politician Íngrid Betancourt Pulecio, former senator and anti-corruption activist. Betancourt was kidnapped by the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) on February 23, 2002, and rescued from captivity six and a half years later in Operation Jaque, along with 14 other hostages (three Americans and 11 Colombian policemen and soldiers), by Colombian security forces on July 2, 2008 (TWO DAYS AGO YAYYYYYYYYYYYYY),

( click for video of her actually being released the actual moment!!!)

 

 

who tricked the FARC into believing they were a leftist non-governmental organization.In all, she was held captive for 2,321 days after being taken while campaigning for the Colombian presidency as a Green. She had decided to campaign in an area of high guerrilla presence in spite of warnings from the government, police and military not to do so. While her kidnapping received media coverage worldwide this was particularly so in France due to her dual French citizenship, and the government of France participated as a facilitator for the release of Betancourt and all prisoners held by the FARC guerrillas. But the movie was so touching you lot her husband was campaigning for her release while the woman was captive girlfriend was running for president WOWO!!!, and her darling children soooo yearning for their mum... so ever the romantic I've been googling for that photo when she is reunited with her husband and I found it... ahhhh what a good man he has been and then the pictures with her mother and then her more grown babies.. the first site pictures not the squeeky clean ones after she's been prepped. Anyway so amazing.... anything can happen folks just believe mostly in yourselves. ONE LOVE! AFRICA ingrid1 ingrid2 OK ANGELINA JOLIE get the option for this film RIGHT NOW this is so you girl or even Salma HAYEK!!!! I'm sure you already know about it and are waiting for the appropriate time to call Ingrid personally right?? Oh and United Nations DPI/NGO conference on human rights being held in Paris.... hellloo!!!!!! ingrid3
