U.S. soldier captured by Taliban: 'I'm afraid'

(CNN) -- A United States soldier captured by the Taliban says in a video posted on the Internet he is "scared I won't be able to go home."

The soldier was identified Sunday by the Pentagon as Pfc. Bowe R. Bergdahl, 23, of Ketchum, Idaho. He was captured June 30 from Paktika province in southeastern Afghanistan.

The Taliban has threatened to kill Bergdahl if foreign troops continue targeting civilians in the name of search operations in Ghazni and Paktika province, Taliban commander Mulvi Sangeen said by telephone Friday after being contacted by CNN at an undisclosed location.

...because it does interesting things for your blood pressure.

I am curious about one thing, though. Why do all of these terrorist assholes have contacts at CNN? And, in that same vein, is there any link between all of the terrorist connections at CNN and the vehement opposition to torture emanating from said media orifices? Like, they're scared that they might find themselves whisked away to Gitmo for some old-fashioned bamboo-shoots-under-the-fingernails-type treatments to find out where the tangoes are holding our soldiers?

Not that I condone torture against fellow Americans, mind you. Oh, wait, these are folks who have more or less thrown in with our enemies, haven't they?

That is all.
