A U.S. soldier went missing today in Baghdad. What does CNN know about this? They seem to be really tuned into the terrorist network so there could be a possibility that someone at CNN knows where the soldier is or who could be holding him.

Do they already have the videotape?

A U.S. soldier was reported missing in Baghdad on Monday, the military said.

The soldier, part of a multi-national division in the Iraqi capital, went missing at about 7:30 p.m. local time, the U.S. military said in a statement.

“Coalition and Iraqi Security Forces immediately responded to attempt to locate the soldier, the search is ongoing,” the statement said.

The U.S. military said last week it was reviewing strategy in Baghdad, where U.S. reinforcements have failed to halt spiraling violence, and expressed grave concern about mounting troop deaths.

U.S. Maj. Gen. William Caldwell has said the number of attacks targeting security forces in Baghdad had risen since U.S. troops launched a crackdown designed to end sectarian violence killing dozens of people every day.

October looks set to become the deadliest month for U.S. troops in Iraq this year.
