HARDtalk: Melanie Betancourt 1

[fueraratas]

mira niña, tu mamá es una sucia codiciosa!, espero tú no salgas igual a ella.

[weimar7]

Ingrid Betancourt, Lorenzo, Mélanie et Yolanda Apulecio sont les plus grands idiots quil existe. Si Ingrid s'est fait enlever par les terroristes des FARC., c'est sa faute, et elle prétend quon doit lui accorder le Prix Nobel de la Paix pour son intelligence de poule. L'arrogance de tous ces personnages est une vraie insulte à la dignité des colombiens qui doivent souffrir jour à jour la douleur de lenlèvement des êtres chers, qui ne possèdent pas un passeport français.

You will stop hurting people! There will be no riots, people will be peaceful and accept the truth without fuss :) Please stop spraying people with poison :) Peace to you all :)

[jofercu]

Melanie y su familia siempre creyeron mas en los narcoterroristas de las farc que en el presidente Alvaro Uribe y Colombia. Los Betencourt le han hecho mucho daño a Colombia.

Total Respect !!!

[dargay]

what city is that in the background, do I see an American flag?

[funkyboodah]

damn, she a cutie.

[Intelect26]

Thank God she's free now, receiving France's highest award, the Legion of Honor. Probably not worth time spent with the FARC, but at least her country cares.

[sumcaptcha]

Her name is Melanie Delloye (unless she changed it).

[bbcworldnews]

She uses both names.

[IlanaM8]

She is 22. She studied with me ;)

[anamogolla]

[2007karma]

22 year old woman?! she is 18! This BBC guy should have done his homework, and why didn't she correct him....hmm.

[bbcworldnews]

Hi, Melanie Betancourt was 22 at the time of filming. We know this as she was the one who told us.

BBC HARDtalk

[2007karma]

Hmmm, I apologize, I read a phony biography that wasn't cited.... Incorrect infomation.

[redviolinparis]

I know, she speaks also italian. But I listended she speak others. So ....

[redviolinparis]

How many languages she speak?

[hotathlete2]

I know she speaks at least 3: Spanish, French and English. Smart girl.

[bugpowderdust]

am i the only one who think she's hawt ?

[1Bo124]

@bugpowderdust: You're right, she is :)

[cooltotto]

lol her mom was freed by the colombian army and thanks to president uribe!!! i m so happy for ingrid she is really smart and now she isone more of the millions of supporters of the president!!!

but this gril melanie and her brother are 2 stupid little kids that didnt even check colombian political situation!! but well i m glad ingrid is free

[ayoria92]

yo creo que cualquier mama estaria orgullosa de melanie es incansable...

[pup101]

she was stupid to think the farc would not kidnap her .. it was some what her fault as well fkin idiot

[masudrules]

she didn't act like her mom is the only one kidnapped, if you watch the whole interview you would see that she makes very clear references to the other people that have been kidnapped; plus, now that Ingrid has been released, she mentioned that her heart goes out to all the other people that were kidnapped; furthermore, she has a lot of respect for Uribe, what are you rambling about?

[gigja88]

that is a really insensitive comment. there is pain and suffering EVERYWHERE on different levels. you can't just say that you shouldn't care about an individual. and individual is often a symbol for thousands of others in the same situation. you need to undertand that sometimes people find it hard to feel for others so far away, ingrid betancourt has been a symbol, and let her daughter speak, she has every right to. they blame uribe for not being efficient.please dont be this insensitive.

[kathso]

Maybe you know more than us about that conflict but NOBODY deserved that treatment! Imagine just a second that the person you love the most was kidnapped, how would you react? So from what you're saying it's ingrid's fault if she was kidnapped? I don't know a lot about that conflict but I know one thing: Everybody should have the same rights and freedom, that shouldn't have happen in the first place! We're talking about a human being like you and me, so i wonder, where is your heart?

[alexrsuarez1]

betancourt got rescued!

[capcee]

YES! Great news! Her daughter needs some Allegra or something, her nose is stuffed up pretty bad in this vid...

[ngasbarr]

How much do you suck at life if you can't understand a girl pleading for her mom's life and you call her a b*tch?

[djnetmen]

cry me a fucking river,

Do us a favor and dont talk about this conflict cause i can tell u don't know shit about it.
