...But of these sophisms and elenchs of merchandise I skill not...
Milton, Areopagitica

Except he had found the
standing sea-rock that even this last
Temptation breaks on; quieter than death but lovelier; peace
that quiets the desire even of praising it.

We are aware of this report:

The Iraqi Red Crescent (IRC) has suspended its operations in Baghdad a day after armed men seized 30 people from its main office in the city.
[...]
In other developments, plain-clothes Americans took a former Iraqi electricity minister - a dual US-Iraqi citizen - from Iraqi police custody on Sunday where he was awaiting trial on corruption charges, Iraqi officials said on Monday.
The officials described "US forces" and men in "American cars" removing him from his cell in a police station in the heavily fortified Green Zone, which houses the Iraqi government and the US and British embassies.
Lou Fintor, a US embassy spokesman, said: "We are aware of this report and looking into it." He declined further comment.
