Well, he'd better explain that name pretty damn quick!

From the This-Can't-Possibly-Be-Happening-To-American-Citizens Department:

The disturbing case of Abdul Amir Younes Hussein, the CBS cameraman who has been detained by U.S. forces in Iraq for over five months without a shred of evidence being publicly presented against him, has taken yet another bizarre turn.

As reported by the New York Times and Wall Street Journal last week, Hussein is a 25-year-old freelancer who has found himself trapped in a nightmare of secrecy, suspicion, and legal uncertainty since being wounded by U.S. forces while filming the aftermath of a car bombing in Mosul on April 5th.

Or should I just say that he should've known better than to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. With the wrong suntan.
