See soldier fight.
See soldier kidnapped.
See soldier’s wife denied a hardship green card and possibly deported.

“I can’t imagine a bigger injustice than that, to be deporting [the wife of] someone who is fighting and possibly dying for our country,” [attorney Matthew] Kolken told WBZ.

I guess they figure either Army Spec. Alex Jimenez is dead and thus won’t mind if his wife gets sent out of the country, or he’ll be so happy to be found alive that he won’t really mind we returned his beloved to sender.

Call me crazy for feeling like neither of those make much sense.

    I think you’re right that concubinage thought sneaks into these considerations. Purely anecdotal, I’ve heard that immigration is a lot harder on women getting marriage visas for men than vice versa, going over the details of their lives much more. Of course, this all does a disservice to the real marriages of American men and foreign women that aren’t in mail order bride situations.

    Why am I thinking that if she was a nice lily-white European woman this would never have occurred?

    Of course, I’m also wondering if they would have found the soldier already too if he was a nice white Jessica Lynch type…
