Terrorist stealing the headlines back? At least on most major leftie media sources?

CBS (BS) Radio news said that we were in posession of a tape that showed a blindfolded young man being shot several times. Confirmation that the young man is Maupin has not been accomplished, and likely won't occur until we have his remains.

Wait, why wasn't he allowed to file for a writ of habeas corpus in Federal Court? I thought the Supreme Court required that.

If it was PFC Matt Maupin, then here are some additional articles about him........

Articles

Pfc. Keith Matthew Maupin was declared missing
after an April 9 convoy attack near Baghdad. One
week later, his image was flashed around the world
in a videotape showing an American soldier
surrounded by five men holding automatic rifles.

Youngsters adopt Pfc. Maupin
Shortly after her son was sent to Iraq, Carolyn Maupin got in touch with Matt Maupin's fourth-grade teacher at Willowville Elementary School. Would you mind, she asked Pam Branham, having your fourth-graders write letters to Matt? Maupin never got the letters.

• Berg video release tough on Maupin's family, others

Maupins address 'Taste' crowd
Memorial Day is the day America set aside to remember the soldiers of wars past and present. Many in the Tri-state took time to pray for Private First Class Matt Maupin, the Clermont County soldier that has been held hostage in Iraq since April 9.

• Nick Ayers proud of former teammate
• General who led war has hope for Maupin
• Bush says Maupin is in his prayers

Maupin: iron will, soft heart
The world knows two images of Matt Maupin. One is his military photograph, his demeanor seeming to say he's tough as any soldier. The other is the video of an unshaven young soldier in a military hat. But those close to him see different, and more lasting, images.

• Maupin's mother attends rally in Georgetown
• Maupin is hostage, not prisoner of war
• Army Reservist from Maupin's convoy confirmed dead
• Union lays wreath for captured soldier

Has FOX or any of the other alphabet networks mentioned this yet? Ive been hearing this all day but haven't seen any reports on the national news.

It's a warcrime to treat a prisoner of war this way. When will the global outrage be broadcast?

P.S. Michael Moore has said that these people we are fighting are not terrorists. He needs to be held to that claim.

If true it is probably PFC. Maupin. He is in our prayers constantly. Prayers continue and for his family and friends too.

That report has been circulating. It hasn't been confirmed yet.

alJazeera says they have the video but haven't shown it due to the 'festivities' in Iraq.

Currently, it seems to be speculative; but we can probably expect the worst.

You can bet that if we'd killed one of theirs in Abu Ghirab, it wouldn't have been called an "execution" - it would have been MURDER.
