“There are some good Americans,” Stone told Chavez, purportedly referring to himself. “That’s why I’m here.”

So the “good Americans” were tied-up somewhere else?

I fear that I don’t understand the “hostage rescue” angle. If, as the article says,

“Any hostage releases in the past have not involved Chavez; they simply release them near the Red Cross and that’s that. This is going to get milked for all it can.”,

then this is simply “released hostage transportation”, there is no rescue involved. Oh wait, now I understand, it’s as much of a rescue as Oliver Stone is a good American. If Stone made pictures worth watching then he wouldn’t have to resort to stunts like these to get noticed. Wouldn’t it be simpler if he just went on strike?
