Arab TV shows tape of Marine held hostage

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

<!--BEGIN ARTICLE-->BAGHDAD, Iraq -- An Arab satellite TV network broadcast a videotape Sunday showing a blindfolded man in military uniform it said was a U.S. Marine taken hostage in Iraq.

There was no immediate comment from the U.S. military, but the video showed a card identifying the man by a Pakistani name and as an "active duty" Marine.

The Al-Jazeera newtork said the group claimed it infiltrated a U.S. Marine outpost, lured the man outside and abducted him. The station said the group demanded the release of all Iraqis "in occupation jails" or the man would be killed.

The group identified itself as "Islamic Response," the security wing of the "1920 Revolution Brigades" referring to the uprising against the British after World War I.

Sounds fishy but assuming it's true I know I'd rather be killed going after one of the sob's than be captured. You're going to die anyway so might as well take one of them out.

i hate to admit, but I'm getting numb to this. I feel really bad for the guy and his family. I hope they find him before the inevitable happens.

I wonder what it will take before we go and and destroy these people. I don't care if they think they are freedom fighters because their actions will make life hard for those who aren't involved. This is starting to piss me off I don't know who to be mad at anymore.....
