Iraqi hostages found in Falluja
US-led troops involved in fighting against insurgents in the Iraqi city of Falluja have found four imprisoned men believed to be Iraqi hostages.Three of the men were contractors working for the US military, a US marines spokesman said, and the fourth said he was a taxi-driver.
All of the men had been beaten and starved and were wearing handcuffs.
US-led forces say they have rid more than 70% of the the city of insurgents in the battle, which began on Tuesday.
He has gone on to his reward, and if anybody has earned such a reward, he is the man.
I'm not adept at linking but it's right under this thread in "Breaking News". And Fox just covered the story. The man is an Iraqi taxi driver who was imprisoned and chained for 10 days by the terrorists.
Thanks! I knew a nurse could do it!
Found three more hostages.....where did you hear that?
Thanks for getting this thread started.
God protect our troops.

General Myers (Chief of Staff) was on Good Morning America this morning, and Diane Sawyer did her damndest to shine a negative light on this battle. Myers did a pretty good job of deflecting her negativism.
If that photo doesn't scream "Freedom", no photo ever will. Beautiful!
Sorry,Dog, not to good at linking, so just lifted the whole post... hope that's okay.
