What's the deal on Allawi's family? Haven't heard much lately
though I can sense the frantic negotiations going on behind the scenes.

Isn't the 48 deadline today?

1. Right, funny, huh?
The head of state's family is kidnapped, and we're hearing about Condi Rice's future employment prospects. :eyes:

4. As soon as I read the title of your thread, I thought "48 hours"
That's just what they said. Isn't that right now??
