Yeah - MSNBC is now reporting it too.... quietly.
It is quiet news. It will change things if Iraq behaves really badly. They have to know that or they are beyond dense.

but are any of these guys missing "muslims?"
Good question that needs looking into and Muslim soldiers need to be sent back to the states till this war is done.
We are idiots for even allowing them and their muslim cult leaders into the service. Islam is the enemy......

But forcing US and UK or other white human shields to don the uniforms and then kill or parade them for propaganda purposes....Yeah, that makes sense.How could anyone confirm those obviously blond or redheaded "soldiers" are or are not western troops? This is a good point. Have all the human shield/Darwin Award contenders been accounted for? Holy cow, if that's the case, no wonder they looked horrified.

FoxNews, Major Garret, now saying the DEFENSE DEPT saying that Al-Jazeera tape looks like propaganda tape (faked??)
Very disturbing video, per Defense Dept...US DOD will analyse and determine if these "prisoners" actually were with the 507th Engineers...From Fort Bliss, TX.
FOX saying they will NOT show the video...
Bump for TRUTH!! Let's ROLL--

"But we might be more hesitant to take POWS."
To quote Jimbo from "South Park"..."THEY'RE COMING RIGHT AT US"...I would be emptying clips at point blank range. Sorry, but this old jarhead is pissed off to hell. No more mercy. No more surrender negotiations. Unconditional surrender. Period. End of conversation.

FOX - "Nothing unconsistent" with these folks actually being US military. I think FNC said "Nothing unconsistent w/ this not" being US military.

Death From Above to all Iraq war criminals!

Bad news and get the perception. The bastards have hid half a Repbulican Guard armored division in a civilian neighborhood. In Umm Qsar they were dressed as and living with civilians (Per Sky News and BBC) before launching the attack last night. It's a tough call but what do you do; put a higher value on an Iraqi civilian's life over one of our grunts? You make the call. I already have morally in my life.

Because Gen Myers has already stated live on TV that US soldiers are missing. The sad state of affairs is that the Iraqi's are using the same strategy as the Serbs during 1999. The Serbs did a similar tactic of snatching US troops and displayed them on TV.

Fox now reporting they are from Fort Bliss, Texas. I'm in El Paso now, this will hit the city very badly.

The FNC person (not the anchor guy) who first mentioned FNC having seen the video...he looked like he was trembling, trying to keep it together. That says to me that the video is convincing, and very hard to watch. I'm bracing myself for this. And if I come across any peaceniks today, I'll have to seriously restrain myself from taking out my rage on them.
To: Beck_isright
No more mercy. No more surrender negotiations. Unconditional surrender. Period. I agree. I've had it with these people.

FOX - "Nothing unconsistent" with these folks actually being US military. Both Fox and MSNBC referrig to them as "prisoners" still. Hopefully they are alive.
M.E. expert on MSNBC has seen the tape and said the questioning of the prisoners shown on tape "Absolutely violates the Geneva Convention" in that the questions involved questions of their personal lives. He said indicates those who took the prisoners are mercenaries.
MSNBC just updated numbers of troops unaccounted for = 12.
