U.S. Soldier in Iraq: Kidnapped?

Let's hope this report isn't true.

A U.S. soldier in Baghdad was reported missing late Monday, and residents said American forces sealed the central Karadah district and were conducting door-to-door searches. Other reports claimed he was an Army translator of Iraqi descent and was abducted.

A military official in Washington said the missing service member was a translator and that the initial report was he may have been abducted. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the information was not cleared for release.

    I assume plane loads of attorneys are on their way to Iraq to demand he be released on bail.

    And I'm sure his captors are reading the Geneva Convention to be sure they don't violate it.

    Yeah, just like we do. And just like you want us to.
