Hostages found alive in Fallujah!

[beattyfamily]

I don't think I saw this posted, so please forgive me if it has...

I'm so so glad to hear that our soldiers are finding hostages alive! I wish we'd see more about it on the news but that's just the way it is, unfortunately. We don't hear the good news.

So far they've found at least 4 hostages alive that I know of and some 'slaughter houses' with lots of records to go through. The hostages were starving and tortured and chained to a wall, but alive.

I hope the fighting in Fallujah is over soon and that our soldiers stay safe.

I also hope this doesn't become a debate. It's just good news, IMHO.

Tremendous!.... now if only we hadn't basically announced when the strike was going to happen, we may have found more, plus killed or captured more of the "really bad guys".

I long for the good old days of no news till it was over with...our enemies find out way too much from CNN, Fox News etc...

It is good news. I bet those hostages can hardly believe they've been found alive. Let's hope they find more.

I assumed we did that so that all the civilians would be able to flee if they chose? I haven't read that anywhere but it just seemed like the only reason to handle it that way.
