I have notice that things appear to be moving along better in Iraq now that the media is focused on evil federal government's non-responsive action after that attack of mother nature.

POSTED: 8:31 am PDT September 7, 2005
UPDATED: 8:38 am PDT September 7, 2005

A U.S. contractor who has been held captive in Iraq since 2004 has been rescued by U.S. troops, according to CNN. Roy Hallums has been in captivity since Nov. 1, 2004.

Roy Hallums' ex-wife, Susan Hallums, said she spoke with the father of her children Wednesday morning and that he was free and alive. She said he is free, after being held for more than 300 days.

"I believe all things are possible if you believe," Susan said.

She said she hopes the reunion with Roy will be this weekend.

Here is the story about the kidnapped contractor Found it on Foxnews.com

BAGHDAD, Iraq — American contractor Roy Hallums (search), who was taken hostage last November in Iraq, has been released, his ex-wife said Wednesday.

"I can confirm he's been released," Susan Hallums, 53, told The Associated Press by telephone. "Considering what he's been through, I understand he's in good condition."

Hallums, a 57-year-old worker for a Saudi company that does catering for the Iraqi army, was seized Nov. 1 along with two other foreigners after a gunbattle in the upscale Mansour neighborhood. An Iraqi guard and one attacker were killed.

If this was a rescue by US troops, I'm hoping that most of the captors are "newly deceased".

Released? or rescued by our guys? I'm hearing two different versions...

I find it hard to believe he was released.
