Sunday, March 23, 11:00 a.m. EST: Some American soldiers are missing in the fighting in Iraq and possibly being held as prisoners, Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld said Sunday. He acknowledged a report of a missing allied aircraft but U.S. defense officials said there was no evidence of that.
Meanwhile, Iraq TV is broadcasting images of captured U.S. troops, 4 men and a woman soldier. The soldiers were from a maintenance unit that got lost. These troops were seen alive when transported into custody. Film shows the POWs being interrogated. In a disturbing development, Arab satellite TV has aired images from Iraq TV of a bloody room with desert uniformed-clad bodies, apparently American troops. The positioning of the bodies, say reports, suggests that they were executed. The Pentagon has requested that U.S. media not air the photos. xponent Geneva Convention Maru rob Wars that shout in screams of anguish, Power spent passion bespoils our soul receiver, Surely we know.
