An American citizen, taken hostage in Iraq, was seen on a video broadcast on Al Jazeera today, begging for his life.The tape on Wednesday showed a man sitting behind a wooden desk as three men pointed their guns towards him.Ake was kidnapped Sunday in Iraq.He was holding what looked like a passport and a photo identification.
The US embassy spokesman in Baghdad - Bob Callahan - confirmed the captive's name as Jeffrey Ake and that the pictures appeared to be consistent with his appearance, but declined to give further details.
Aljazeera did not air the tape's audio, but said Ake had asked the US government to start a dialogue with the Iraqi resistance.
I'll link to the video once it becomes available.

Jeffrey and asking others to do the same.

I prayed for a previous captive and he escaped
there is POWER IN PRAYER
