Bad news about the captured soldiers

The Al Qaeda front group who claims to have captured the three US soldiers is now saying that they were taken in response to the rape-killing of the 14 year old girl Abeer and her family last year.

If true, this is horrible news because of the horrific deaths dealt out to the two soldiers, PFC Tucker and PFC Menchaca, who were taken last July amid similar claims of revenge for this incident. The degradations and suffering inflicted on Tucker and Menchaca were so gruesome that to this day they have not been described in a major press outlet.

(There was an outstanding claim from July that 8 more US soldiers would be similarly tortured and killed to avenge Abeer and her family.)

Let's all hope that the Islamic State of Iraq is lying on this one.
