Documents show that the U.S. military has been kidnapping women in Iraq, not because they've done anything wrong, but because their husbands are suspected of doing something wrong. The hope is that the men will turn themselves in. In one case a note was pinned to the door instructing the husband "to come get his wife."
Iraq’s deputy justice minister, Busho Ibrahim Ali, said hostage-holding was a tactic used under the ousted Saddam Hussein dictatorship, and "we are not Saddam."
Tyranny is tyranny I say.

Note that the corporate media isn't using the word "kidnap" to describe American actions. Most of the articles I saw used the word "seize." Right we seize; Iraqis kidnap.
Jesus, we've got to "bring the troops home" just so some of these nutjobs don't go around doing shit like this. of course, some will end up bringing it home with them.
"Tyranny is tyranny." Boy that brings back memories. -Mike
