They have absolutly nothing to lose by doing so.

I'm happy for her. I just hope that pepole realize it is a goodwill stunt.

After all they kept her for this long??

Hopefully this dumb (expletive deleted) has learned her lesson.

The sad thing is that she will write some book and appear on the talk shows and earn a bunch of money .... just for being stupid.

Why does our culture reward stupidity?

This wont work for much longer. The US Gov by now is tiring of having to recover citizens that pull stunts to write books. And don't tell me that the idiots who Invaded North Korea (Yes they consider Intrusions like that to be invasions) Did so for Humanitarian reasons. They wanted to get airtime.

Pretty soon we wont care much about those who pull those stunts. They will get to experience the TRUE horror of being in the clutches of the enemy with no tactical info to offer for their health for a decade or so because the enemy decides to trade them for something.
