2. Thanks for your post and a link. Keep us updated and...

and maybe we can keep this kicked til we can get more info. I'm afraid not all the outcomes for the people that have been picked up will be good news. I hope I'm wrong.

4. You're welcome. Hopefully he just just stayed away from home for the night

People who went to the protests were being advised to not go to their homes after Saturday's march because militants were following people to their homes and arresting/attacking people in those homes..maybe he just didn't want to bring that upon his family? Hopefully.

I first found the info on a Twitter entry..since there was a provided link to Life mag and there was a statement from Life confirming him missing, I figured it was safe/true enough to share.

I haven't seen any other US MSM pick up the story. Seeing as how they have been showing his pictures throughout the week, you think they would at least give his disappearance (?) a few moments of airtime. It's obviously not like the (recently free) kidnapped NYT reporter story that was not to be reported---Life has confirmed this person missing.
