Bin Laden, the Taliban and Al Qaeda HATE this Man
Yes, not only do Bin Laden, the Taliban, and Al Qaeda hate anyone that is NON-Muslim but they have a special hate for Jack Idema. Because he is good at what he has been trained to do!
Jack Idema has spent a long time on many missions defending our freedom and our way of life. Isn't it about time we got him out of this ridiculous mess he's in when he was only doing the job he was sent over there to do? The job that he's been trained for and that he's so good at?
He is our best weapon against Bin Laden, the Taliban and Al Qaeda. This intelligence gathering he was doing was second to none. It's the kind of intelligence that the FBI probably has wet dreams about.
Jack is a former member of the US Army Special Forces and is a Green Beret. He has operated for the US Government, and trained foreign counter-terrorist forces in Nicaragua against the Sandinistas, in El Salvador with the Ramon Bellosa Immediate Reaction Battalion against the FMLN terrorists, in East Germany and Europe against the Bader Meinhoff Gang, in Thailand with the Thai Special Warfare Command, in Haiti protecting the US Mission against dissidents, in the Middle East against Hezbollah, Hamas and Abu Nidal terrorists, in Lithuania against the OMON terrorists, and numerous other operational areas.
His Special Ops and SF background includes more than two dozen SF, Special Ops, police, counter-terrorist and classified courses and schools. He is an expert in counter-terrorism, intelligence asset development, and hostage-rescue, with more than 25 years' experience in all of these. He's currently employed by the Counter-Terrorist Group U.S. (CounTerr Group) as a CT Operator in a direct action capacity against international terrorism, specifically, Al Qaeda and related terrorist groups.
CounTerr, aka CounTerr Group, is an organization based in the US that leads counter-terrorism activites in support of US government initiatives. Counterr Group conducts training, organization, direct action, HUMINT, and advisory services to foreign and domestic agencies. Counterr Group has been in operation , in various forms, in various countries, for approximately 27 years. Counterr Group began deploying personnel to Afghanistan and other countries just weeks after 9/11 as part of the effort to combat Osama bin Laden, al Qaeda and other terrorist forces such as the Taliban. Counterr Group's froeign operating group and CONUS personnel worked in conjunction with Commander Massoud's Northern Alliance, which were primarily responsible for the liberation of Afghanistan with US Army Special Forces and Special Ops units.
We should allow him to do the work he was trained to do and get the hell out of his way. A man like this can only make the world safer from terrorism, and with his Northern Alliance Allies, he was doing the job. Until he was stopped. And demonized by the press, and victimized by the FBI and the DOS. This should also be investigated.
We should be complaining to our elected representatives about his situation and demand that it be rectified immediately.
They are being held at Pulacharke Prison because the American government has ordered it.
This must not stand.
He should be allowed to proceed with the Geneva Convention hearing!
They should be released from custody, they've been declared innocent by the Afghans, and have been recognized by the Afghans has having POW status.
There should be a congressional hearing as to what has happened with regard to these men, and the people involved should be held responsible.
Write your representatives.
Write your representatives, your congressmen, the President, Condoleeza Rice, Director Mueller (FBI) and Ambassador Neumann (the new Ambassador to Afghanistan since this spring).

Ambassador Khalizad is now Ambassador to Iraq. Judging from his questionable track record in Afghanistan, I don't have a very high opinion of his work in Iraq, and now I have all kinds of questions as to what exactly we are accomplishing there, and under whose guiding influences.

We should make it clear that we know what has gone on here and that it's an outrage and all men from TF Sabre/7 should be released, exhonerated, their names cleared. And we should be also pushing for a Congressional investigation as to who was involved, the how and the why. Nobody fighting in Afghanistan or Iraq should EVER have to worry about being hung out to dry like this by a government that is employing stalinist tactics and turning its back on all the freedoms and rights that have been provided and guaranteed us by our founding documents and old standards such as the Geneva Conventions. Are we to apply the Geneva Conventions to terrorists to whom these safeguards don't apply and ignore them for our men in uniform for whom they were written???
If so, we're setting ourselves up for FAILURE in this TERROR WAR.
This is the "Free Jack" campaign.
To join the campaign, email Cao from Cao's blog and tell her you want to join the Free Jack Idema blogburst. You will be added to the blogroll and she'll send you the html code to put up for that week in case you're pressed for time and can't put something together...or you can write your own.
We will be blogging on this every Wednesday until he and his team are released, and when they are, we'll be blogging about a congressional hearing.
Cao will maintain an email list, and will email you the post of the week along with a picture (if there is one for that week) to host at your blog.
Join the fight. No American should ever have to worry about ending up in this predicament ever again. But first, we must make sure they get home safely and in one piece.
These are the blogs so far who are participating:
