“Sunday’s search is reminiscent of the hunt last June for two soldiers who were seized at a checkpoint in Yusufiya.

Like our fight with the NAZI’s it’s time for the heavy bombers and a little dirty Sunnicide. Bring on Plan B. A little more rubble, a lot less trouble.

I am amazed this more troops have not been captured and tortured on film.

“...A little more rubble, a lot less trouble.”

Like the sentence and believe the time for Plan B or maybe it’s Z by now is long overdue.

Islamic State of Iraq...

Didn’t these guys try to take credit for Mt Saint Helens blowing up?

Anyone can make claims on the Web, let’s wait to see what finally turns up.

Prayers for our guys & their families. Not knowing must be the worst torture.
