CBS News: Reports that a US Soldier has been kidnapped by the Taliban/Terrorists. This will be a propaganda coup for the Taliban/Terrorists. They will be able to use the modern media to send out a message that the Obama Surge is in trouble before it starts, they will make demands that cant be meet. The message of course will be false and will be seen as such by more savvy Western eyes but it works well on the Arab Street. Also if they can keep hold of the soldier they can place pressure on the Obama Administration. One can see the soldier being dressed in a costume that will have resemblance to Gitmo. They terrorists could also place the soldier in conditions that represent some of the mistreatment of that was reported out of Iraq and Afghanistan. Lets hope Delta Force and the SAS can get to the soldier before this becomes a victory for the Taliban/Terrorists.
