I’d like to see the videotape that was aired on al-Jazeera showing the captured American soldiers. Is it archived somewhere on the Internet for all to see? I don’t like being on this side of the censorship wall. ---

Well, no link to post, but I did see it on yahoo news yesterday. Don’t know if it’s still there, though. Needless to say, I was surprised to see it after hearing the TV guys talk about not airing it. ---

After [this](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=172086), I would strongly recommend _not_ posting any links to this video. ---

Hopefully others will be able to find their way themselves. I didn’t mean to open up a can of Moderator - whoop-ass on anyone; just one citizen here, looking for truth. ---

No, problem. I was just making a word-to-the-wise type statement. ---

And you went about it exactly the right way, **Jake4** , so no worries here. But as mentioned, this site will not be party to dissemination of that video. Accordingly, this thread is closed.
