#1 This calls for "on your knees" praying. Might be time to go tie a big yellow ribbon around a front porch column. At least, it would let me feel, I am doing something and showing my support for their return. Keep them and their families in your hearts. Hold them ever so close, till we get them back.

#2 And if that don't work, the next 100 terrorist "leaders" caught get tossed in the wood chipper. Feet first. With a pig.

#3 Ahmed Khalaf Falah, a farmer who said he witnessed the attack Friday, said three Humvees were manning a checkpoint when they came under fire from many directions. Two Humvees went after the assailants, but the third was ambushed before it could move, he told The Associated Press.
Seven masked gunmen, including one carrying what Falah described as a heavy machine gun, killed the driver of the third vehicle, then took the two other U.S. soldiers captive, the witness said. His account could not be verified independently.
