BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- At least two members of Iraqi interim Prime Minister Ayad Allawi's family have been kidnapped at gunpoint from their home in Baghdad, amid conflicting reports from government officials and sources close to the family.
A group called Ansar al-Jihad has claimed responsibility for the kidnapping on a Web site.
The group demanded the release of all Iraqi prisoners and an end to the attacks on Falluja within 48 hours. It said the hostages would be beheaded if its demands were not met.

I woke up this morning and heard about this situation and had mixed feelings. My first thought (sorry to say) was that finally the terrorists got it right. Enough of beheading those that are there simply to help - you want to change Bush's or any political powers mind - try doing what Moore did - ask the politicians to offer up their family for war and see what type of reaction you get - we knew they wouldnt sign because then the war would become personal.
This puts the Prime Minister who is Bush's puppet in a very difficult situation - allow 3 of your own family to die or demand that Bush get out of Dodge city Iraq. No doubt Bush would have had not only all the troops out but they would have swept the streets of american chocolate bar wrappings if his own daughters were threatened - now its getting PERSONAL.
The war had a face for many of us - but now it has for the politicians. I only wonder if I am right or wrong to see this as a evil twisted blessing that terrorists are now going after those who make the decisions on a personal level?
