US Will Not Negotiate for Release of "GI Joe"

The "soldier" appearing to be taken hostage in Iraq -- and threatened with beheading -- appears to be a doll -- er, action figure. The uniform and boots didn't match with anything the US military issues. The toymaker recognized the soldier was really one of his toys. But the real give away should have been the bunch taking credit -- a little known terrorist group largely inactive since the 1980's -- "Cobra." (Houston Chronicle)
