Hopefully, we closed off the area quickly enough that we'll be able to find them.

I fear another video will be released soon.

God have mercy on those two soldiers.

God help them...
Lord knows how those animals will treat them.

Maybe Murtha can go and bargain for them...since he is the friend of our enemies.

Typical NYT! They eat this up when its our troops in trouble. I don't like the sound of it. I hope for the best outcome but fear the worst.

this is going to be bad, you are going to see the MSM running the insurgent's video of these men, like they did with the rodney king video.

There are a lot of people in the Democratic Party who are thrilled and happy with this development simply because of the political implications.

It is hard to know if such a report is true, but if so, it is not good news.

This sounds like the terrorists planned this attack and the diversion just for this result.

Hopefully we find these men quickly. Otherwise, we will probably see them next on Al Jazeera.

With all the setbacks alQuaeda's had recently, I fear that examples will be made of these two men to try to gain back some of the momentum.

May God be with these two brave souls - I hope they make it back alive.

Does not look good for our boys. May God give them strength, courage and His peace.

I wouldn't worry too much - it is our soldiers who are the savages --- it is the "freedom fighters" who are in the right and only protecting their country -- just ask John Murtha

If I see Murtha's fat face on TV one more time braying about the innocent Iraqui's killed by our military, I won't have a television screen left. I'm sure he is pleased by this.

God bless our military, and especially these two soldiers.

We need to implement "Brooklyn Rules":
You hurt one of mine I kill one of yours
You kill one of mine I kill ten of yours!
