"It was an American journalist." Gill Kelly, who works for the Christian Science Monitor, was reportedly going to interview a Sunni Arab politican. US and Iraqi troops sealed off the area soon after she was snatched."

IF this is not a hoax ... it doesn't look good for her. They HATE Christians and if she is a conservative one ... she's done.
