    Ingrid Bettancourt Rescued

    The Colombian authorities say they have rescued Ingrid Betancourt and three American hostages held by Farc rebels.

    Green Party presidential candidate Bettancourt had been held by FARC rebels since being kidnapped in February 2002.

    I pretty much simultaneously opened a thread in Foreign Affairs! Um, how is this a Green Party concern?
