Yes, actually. You represent a PR danger to hardline Islamic militants. Now consider that a friend of yours who has been photographed in a Hamas scarf and has praised the much-maligned Saudi regime on her blog recently undertook a trip to London, a very expensive city. Given the income of most journalists, that's rather suspicious. Then there's the fact that dangerous ants are closely associated with South America, where this friend of yours comes from. I think that Rinat Malkes tried to off you on the orders of some militant Islamist group, and arranged to be out of the country on a "vacation" so as to allay suspicions, enjoying her anticipated pay-off at the same time.
