This is the original, "Christian Science Monitor" headline: U.S. WOMAN ABDUCTED IN AFGHANISTAN. A TALIBAN SNATCH?
The abduction on Saturday of a female US aid worker in one of Afghanistan's most dangerous cities may signal increased risk for foreign aid workers.
Kidnappings of Americans have been rare, and some Kandahar residents say the abduction of Cyd Mizell and her Afghan driver at gunpoint is a worrying development.
What an unfortunate choice of words to use for a headline.
Why would they say a US woman has a Taliban snatch anyhow?
