U.S. Army Accused of Taking Hostages

(Jalandhar, India) According to this report, two truck drivers who were detained and later freed by militants in Iraq are accusing the U.S. Army of forcibly taking Indian truck drivers to Iraq and mercilessly beating them if they resist.

"Over 5000 Indian truck drivers and labourers are still in the custody of the American army ...," Lakhwinder Singh and Harnke Singh of Bhangala village said.

I don't believe for a nanosecond that the United States Army is taking Indian laborers as hostages. Forgetting momentarily that taking hostages is not something the U.S. Army would do, anybody with a pea-sized brain would know that it would be impossible to hide 5000 hostages and, if the elite leftist media had the slightest hint of anything of that nature, they would be all over the story. We would see the front pages of the NYT, the WaPo, the UK Guardian, and others plastered with the story, followed by a Congressional dog and pony show lasting months.

The report from Lakhwinder Singh and Harnke Singh is bogus.
