This is what I see on Fox News:
"...A command tent at the 101st Airborne Division
camp in Kuwait was attacked early Sunday with grenades, and 13 soldiers were wounded, six seriously, military officials said. An American soldier was detained as a suspect, the Army said..."
and
"....However, George Heath, civilian spokesman for the 101st's home base at Fort Campbell, Ky., said two Middle Eastern men were detained. He said they had been hired as contractors working for the Army at that
camp...."
First of all, no where in that article does it use the word "Muslim". Second, they say that the Middle Easterners detained were contractors, not soldiers. Nothing was said about the American soldier's identity.

Out:
Funk is correct here. The US soldier being held is a sergent engineer.
No mention of his religion is made.
The contractors were released by the Army.
Speaking of religions of peace, what's GW's and Rumsfeld's religions. They are the one's doing the massive bombing and killing at the moment.

Joey,
This is a Born-Again Christian jihad.
Bush said God is on our side, so don't worry (surely he's closer to God than is the Pope)

Lander would you roll a grenade in the command tent if you could?

U.S. Soldier Kills Compatriot in Anti-War Attack

KUWAIT (Reuters) - One U.S. soldier was killed and 15 others were wounded on Sunday when a Muslim American serviceman apparently angered by the war against Iraq rolled hand grenades into their tents.
The suspect, a sergeant from an engineering unit, was detained shortly after the early morning attack at a tented command center in Kuwait.
"He's a Muslim, and it seems he was just against the war," said one U.S. military source, who did not wish to be identified.
Brigade commander Col. Ben Hodges, who suffered a slight flesh wound in the attack, said a grenade was rolled into each of three tents at the command area at Camp Pennsylvania, the Kuwait base for the 1st Brigade of the 101st Airborne Division.
Another U.S. military source said the assault appeared to be well-planned with the suspect first knocking out a generator that supplied electricity to the tents, and then lobbing in grenades.
He also allegedly opened fire with his rifle before he was tackled and detained. The soldier had apparently been attached to the division for a few months.
"It is just unbelievable. It's terroristic, it truly is," said Capt. James McGahey. "Everybody is a bit jumpy, edgy. You never want, especially at a time like this, to have to have to think whether you can trust the guy to your left or your right."
Time magazine correspondent Jim Lacey, who witnessed the attack, described scenes of what he called chaos and carnage when the grenades exploded, saying soldiers thought they had come under Iraqi missile attack.
GAS MASKS
Television footage showed soldiers running around wearing gas masks.
"A suspect was taken into custody following the attack on elements of the 101st Airborne Division. The suspect is a soldier assigned to the division," U.S. Central Command, which is running the war in Iraq, said in a statement.
The attack stunned members of the 101st Airborne Division, which specializes in rapid air assault advances, just as it was preparing to move into Iraq to join the invasion which began on Thursday.
Lacey described the man as disgruntled and said he had been "acting strange," but the military sources said the attack appeared to be "politically motivated" rather than personal.
U.S. Central Command did not name the suspect or comment on a possible motive.
A photograph shown on CNN portrayed the suspect bare-headed and kneeling outside a tent in his desert fatigues with his hands cuffed behind his back. A flak-jacketed soldier stood over him with a weapon.
Maj. Hugh Cate, a spokesman for the 101st Airborne, said 16 people were hit by the attack. One died before arriving at hospital, three others underwent surgery and the other 12 were only slightly wounded.
Camp Pennsylvania is one of the desert bases from where U.S. forces have launched an invasion to try to overthrow Iraqi President Saddam Hussein.
Thousands of U.S. troops have been based in Kuwait since the end of the 1991 Gulf War. They have been targeted several times in recent months by militants whom Kuwaiti authorities say may have links to Osama bin Laden's al Qaeda network.
Kuwait is a key U.S. ally and its government is publicly grateful to Washington for leading the 1991 war that drove out occupying Iraqi troops from the oil-rich country, but there have been concerns of rising anti-American sentiment.

3000+ dead on 9/11.
how many more would die if Saddam gets the NUKES.
this will be a small price to pay now compared to 100's of thousands if we sit around and sing peace songs.

guys tomorrow is going to be a black day when we are finally aware of whats going down today.i think they have the death toll around 25 us military. the sad reality is is closer to 300 as reported back from a hospital ship where on of my friends daughter is stationed.
the media has got to start telling people whats really going on.
she did tell her father that the reason its not been let out ,is because moral has slipped some.and they are seeing more and more resentment from our own troops.
most of these kids are kids we coached in baseball, cub scouts or what have you. 18 19 yyear olds. they never imagine it was going to be like this.
the best thing we can do is pray and when and if they come back ,we will need to support these people. there lifes have been changed forever.
"dont take life so serious, you wont be getting out of here alive"
