#3 While my heart goes out to Allawi on a personal level, he still gets no particular sympathy from me. This is what Iraq's rebels desire. Namely, the death of Allawi's (or any other ruling personage's) family, now or later. Begin to fight it tooth and nail as of now, or watch your own kith and kin die a slow death.

This is what has been the case for some decades now, nothing has changed save the names and places of where the victims get buried.

#4 Somehow, I doubt Allawi is moved. Dozens of his relatives were killed during Saddam's reign. The latest kidnapping simply reminds him of the fate that awaits the rest of his relatives, should he lose.

#5 BBC Radio reports that Allawi's two female relatives have been released.

#6 Yup, this is the guy John Kerry insulted after Allawi spoke to the joint session of Congress.
