Here we have a Canadian journalist that was recently kidnapped and then later released by mujahedeen in Iraq. I've included this as a thread because it is necessary for everyone to get an opinion on the war that hasn't been filtered by the government. Its a first-hand account, like all of Mr. Taylor's "On Target" articles.

Scott Taylor is my favorite journalists when it comes to war and he's got the credability to back it up. He's a former soldier, is the columnist and publisher of Esprit de Corps magazine and has been in and out of Iraq many times over the past few years.

Here's a link to a recent article on his release.

Just for fun here's one Mr. Tayor made during the Kosovo war.

And another on Iraq from 2002

I wish I could find a collection of his articles in one site.

Oh, well. Enjoy! :)
