#1 This is too interesting. If nothing else, the Italians might make it into a lame Roberto Benigni comedy.

#2 Note to future deserters....get the damn contract signed and the check cashed before you run off to join the jihadis.

#3 If he ever returns or is re-captured, I truly hope he faces the death penalty. It's pretty clear he's working for the other side.

#4 Weren't some of his belongings and maybe even his uniform found in a building in fallujah during the battle there?

#6 While tuning up the world's tiniest violin, he noticed that the sympathy meter was pegged at "off scale--low."

#7 yeah...we'll see.

If there was a book deal, it would mean that the publishers knew where he was weren't telling - which would cause problems for all. I'm guessing it's either just on hold right now, or it will just appear in theaters near you, one day soon.

#8 They traced his bank card usage to Lebanon, and then he seems to have dropped off the face of the earth

Well, at least we know where the edge is now.

#9 Fox should give him a recurring role on 24. The SOB was, is, and always will be a member of the Fifth Column. F***ing Muslims....
