#5  If she was going to see Adnan al-Dulaimi, does this make him responsible for her safety, in the Arab world point of view?

#4  Part of the AP Story:

Gunmen kidnapped a female American journalist and killed her Iraqi translator Saturday... the translator told police before he died that the abduction took place when he and the journalist were heading to meet Adnan al-Dulaimi, head of the Sunni Arab Iraqi Accordance Front, in the Adel section of the city.

According to a guard at al-Dulaimi's office, three armed men in a red Opel sedan intercepted the journalist's car and shot the translator before taking her in their car and driving away. The kidnapping took place about 100 yards from al-Dulaimi's office.
