Iraqi commandos free Lebanese hostage

Wow, I didn't even know there was such a thing as an Iraqi Commando! Via SMH:

"Iraqi commando forces carried out a military operation on the kidnappers of Vlad Damaa and released him half an hour ago," the source said in Beirut, declining to give any more details.

Damaa was seized at gunpoint on Friday from a construction concern he runs with a brother that sells prefabricated buildings to US forces in Iraq, his family said.

On a less optimistic note, a second Lebaneese truck driver is still missing.
