Web Site Claims GI Captured in Iraq

Jihadists are claiming to have captured an American soldier. From AP, with thanks to the Constantinopolitan Irredentist:

The posting, on a Web site that frequently carried militants' statements, included a photo of what appeared to be an American soldier in desert fatigues seated with his hands tied behind his back. A gun barrel was pointed at his head, and he is seated in front of a black banner emblazoned with the Islamic profession of faith, "There is no god but God and Muhammad is His prophet."...

"Our mujahadeen heroes of Iraq's Jihadi Battalion were able to capture American military man John Adam after killing a number of his comrades and capturing the rest," said the statement, signed by the "Mujahedeen Brigades."

"God willing, we will behead him if our female and male prisoners are not released from U.S. prisons within the maximum period of 72 hours from the time this statement has been released," the statement said.

UPDATE: Drudge suggests that the picture of this hostage is taken from a toy! What next? Barbie???

They captured a G.I. Joe doll!

Looks like they're running out of ideas. That, or the black ops "drugs in the grass/sand" are starting to take effect.

P.S. Don't mess with G.I. Joe!

Hope he is right!!

Looks like a doll and when you look at no ID makes you wonder??

Where this picture could be coming from I mean are they selling G.I Joes in Iraq Now??

Heard that they may make a statue Of President G.W.Bush for their Freedom??

But you have to wonder where they would get that doll??

Maybe in the Toys for Tots shipment ? But maybe this was put together not in Iraq at ALL??

PS
Who will they go after next Gumby and Pokey??

You think they could have come up with a better made up name then "John Adam". Sounds like John Doe or one of our founding fathers.

I thought that adult Muslims were not supposed to play with dolls - err, "action figures".

ROTFLMAO ! ! !

Hey, I heard a little while ago that the sign in Arabic behind the doll was pretty amateurish, as if copied by someone who can't write Arabic. If that's true, you gotta wonder if the whole thing didn't originate outside Iraq as someone's version of a practical joke.
