The Kidnapped Marine

I really didn't think that those beheading barbarians were so stupid as to cut the head off of a US Marine. If they had done that, all hell would have broken loose. The Marines are very protective of their own, and even if it turns out this guy is a deserter, there is no way in the world that the United States Marine Corps would have put up long with the beheading on the Internet of one of their own. When they "claimed" to have beheaded the guy, but didn't have the pictures or video to prove it, I didn't believe that they had done it. Now it looks like they haven't decapitated the guy,and he seems to be in some strange situation where he sort of "defected" or something. I hope he ends up back in our hands soon.

If they had cut his head off, I suspect that there would be an ever increasing number of cases "MissingHeaditis" amongst folks who otherwise would have ended up as prisoners. There's be no real clear explanation for the epidemic, but the corpses missing their heads would no doubt show symptoms similar to what happens when you slice something with a K-Bar I suspect that even the terrorists weren't too interested in an out-break of 'MissingHeaditis". It is fatal, after all.

But what the heck do I know.
