U.S. Man in Iraq Hostage Video

BAGHDAD, Iraq — A videotape that surfaced in Baghdad Tuesday shows a missing American, Roy Hallums (search), pleading at gunpoint for Arab rulers to intercede to spare his life.

The 60-second clip shows an American man seated against a black background with a gun to his head. He had his legs crossed and was rubbing his hands together as he appealed to the camera.

Hallums, 56, was seized Nov. 1 along with Robert Tarongoy (search) of the Philippines during an armed assault on their compound in Baghdad's Al-Mansour district. Both are missing.

On the new tape, Hallums, with a rifle pointed at his head, stated his name and said "I have worked with American forces." "I am please asking for help because my life is in danger because it's been proved I worked for American forces," he said. "I'm not asking for any help from President Bush because I know of his selfishness and unconcern for those who've been pushed into this hellhole."

1. Pretty obvious that...

...he didn't say that of his own free will.

People will say just about anything with a gun pointed at their heads.

3. I doubt those are his words, though the are sadly true.

They have the distinct and obvious ring of having been translated from another language. None the less, that smirky motherfucker IS responsible.
