France and Italy have been funding terrorists in Iraq:

Another challenge for the United States, the report says, was to persuade foreign governments to “stop paying ransoms.” It gives no details, but American officials have said previously that France paid a multimillion-dollar ransom for the release in December 2004 of two French reporters held hostage by an insurgent group. Italy, these officials have said, paid ransoms on at least two occasions, in September 2004 for the release of two women, both aid workers, and in March 2005, a reported $5 million for the release of Giuliana Sgrena, a journalist for the Rome newspaper Il Manifesto.

Unfortunately, that's not their only source of funds, or even the major one.

So has Fox News:

Fox News had reporters kidnapped in Iraq? When did that happen?

Fox news had their reporters captured by arab terrorists last summer. Simberg writes about all terrorists as if they are
the same. Aren't we fighting the global war on terror?
