12. If true, there may a pattern of freeing those who opposed the
invasion while killing those who supported it. Don't mean to sound cold but I'm sure our diplomats and military are doing the same analysis. Apparently, the abduction and freeing of other nationals is to get their attention; e.g., Russians are now leaving Iraq.

In no way do I condone kidnapping by Iraq's but desperate people who have been invaded do desperate things.

Like suicide bombings this may be part of their arsenal like our cluster bombs and overwhelming military mechanization.
