Interestingly enough, within the article is this quote from Joe Biden:

Vice President Joe Biden has said the U.S. plans to appeal a court decision dismissing manslaughter charges against the five Blackwater guards involved in the shooting.

Think there just might be a connection with our ilustrious V.P. speaking one of his famous Bidenisms?  You betcha!  The following link reveals that, on the same day the abduction took place was the same day Ol’ Joe made his proclamation:
