I'm so sorry about your nephew. :( May God rest his soul. You have every right to be angry, and I don't blame you one bit. I do understand where she is coming from, though. It must be a living hell to have loved ones over there whenever this kind of news comes out. My prayers go out for involved.

I'm praying for this soldier too, fatima. The Army base in Fairbanks is Ft. Wainwright. I'll have to check on the 177th part. That sounds so familiar to me.

SS troops shot some of our pow's but islamofascists cut them to pieces alive. No matter how you slice it islamos are the most inhuman enemy to US troops. But to Jews you cant really top the Nazi for an enemy since they already used sarin on them and starved others to death.

I read a news report that says they are searching for him house-to-house. Also, that he was assigned to the 4th Infantry Division's Multinational Division Baghdad.

Today I was watching a show which was all about Hitler and the Third Reich,and there came over me so many similarities between the Nazi's and the Muslims. Especially the hatred of the Jews but also that special race thing. Even stealing Polish children that looked like Aryan. Maybe it's just the same evil that runs through all of them. And didn't Hitler have a relationship with the Muslims? France and Germany are really lost. I pray not but history may be repeating itself.

I agree. The Nazi's were wusses compared to these 7th century monsters.

"A search is under way for a U.S. soldier who went missing in Iraq on Monday evening, amid fears the soldier might have been kidnapped. As part of the search, U.S. forces raided the HQ of Al-Furat TV and confiscated some weapons found there, according to CNN Correspondent John Roberts, who was embedded with troops conducting the search"

It may not be the exact way I was thinking but I also can't help to think that the enemy propaganda is being more inspired with the enemy knowing that CNN is on their team.

The vast majority of our POWs were treated well by Germany. It was a very different story for US soldiers captured by Japan.

Also, the SS had no warrors code, but the German Army did.

Obviously in your opinion, it was mostly jews who were murdered by the nazi's so that's just important in your book.
