Houses raided after Iraq kidnap

[LeoWindhorse]

who goes willingly with such a surprise visit by any Iraqis ?
Seems like they should have been challenged , fixed in place and QR forces called for to back up.

Any foreigners asked to go anywhere should have a team of gunship choppers overhead ,at the very least .

Well, I never!

Well, hardly ever..

Sadr aide denies Britons kidnap

Witnesses said police units sealed off the street outside the ministry

A top aide of radical Shia cleric Moqtada Sadr has said the Mehdi Army was not involved in the kidnapping of five Britons in Baghdad on Tuesday.

Story on the Savage site about finding two soldiers - possibly our missing soldiers beheaded and with signs of torture. Has anyone heard about this? The brutality of the Islamic savages is making me ill.

[PghBaldy]

Hard to disagree with your reasoning.It’s a rotten mess. If we leave like the Dems want or stay and muddle through, the same thing occurs - loss of American prestige and will to fight.

[PghBaldy]

I hope they are found safe and sound ASAP. This is not the time to mock Britain, a great nation and a great ally.

I understand your anger at the idiotic comments earlier,but US forces ARE looking for him,with the SAS also doing so according to the press.

Stupid post.

Lets not play the ‘we’re not weak,but you are’ game shall we?...you really dont want me to bring up 1968 or 1979.Both of which make your point redundant.
