GobbleDog 822 Posted August 20, 2014 Americans do not negotiate with terrorists. That's why this reporter is dead and so will the other reporter being held. It's a smart policy to avoid encouraging hostage taking. Which is why I'm still perplexed why the US swapped several Guantanamo prisoners for that American soldier a few months back.?.?

IGotWorms 3,323 Posted August 20, 2014 www.nytimes.com EDGARTOWN, Mass. A United States Special Operations team tried and failed to rescue James Foley and other Americans held hostage in Syria during a secret mission in early July authorized by President Obama, senior administration officials said Wednesday. A day after Sunni militants posted a video showing Mr. Foley being beheaded, officials described what they called a complicated operation in which several dozen commandos were dropped into a remote area of Syria where American intelligence agencies believed several hostages were being held by the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria. The officials said they believed a number of the terrorists were killed in the operation. But when the Special Operations team arrived on the scene, the hostages were not there. Officials said the commandos exchanged fire with militants, and one American was slightly wounded when one of the United States aircraft came under fire. All of the team members were evacuated successfully. It was not ultimately successful because the hostages were not present at the location of the operation, a senior administration official said, speaking on background about the mission. We obviously wish this had been successful. Officials declined to say exactly how many hostages they were trying to rescue or to provide the names of the people who they believed were being held captive by the militants. I dont want to get into our assessment of specific names on that score, one official said. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BunnysBastatrds 1,926 Posted August 21, 2014 I will ask again. So what? Do you have an issue with presidents playing golf after such statements? Before Katrina, I played a hundred plus rounds of golf a year. I played a round the Saturday they announced a mandatory evacuation while I was on the course. Shot a 79 on the west championship course. I knew it would probably be my last round for a year as work would and did engulf my life. As an insurance adjuster here, I was so Fawking busy that the thought of golf was a dream in the months ahead. I worked nonstop to handle all the claims I could to help all of those in need. I played my first round ten months after and felt guilt doing it. Imagine being an insured who's home was devastated by Katrina and I told you "Sorry I can't deal with this today. My golf game is more important right now. I'll deal with you tomorrow." I'd be fired and hung up! A tree. This president has no feeling of what's important in these times. He's a piece of Fawking sh!t who has no understandings for this countries problems. It's all about him and his discontent for his opposistion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Which is the point...posty does not give a rat's behind about it other than it being Obama playing golf. Seems the right (and mostly hacks on websites like this) are very hung up on this president's golf game when it never mattered before. Most of the recent presidents golfed. In good times and in bad. And if you think they are quietly relaxing on a golf course like you or I would...you are a moron. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eaglesin14 12 Posted August 21, 2014 Sorry, but I'm never going to fault a president for trying to rescue our people. I agree, if we are talking about our soldiers. This guy was a reporter and knew what he was getting into. Putting numerous soldier's lives at risk to get him out is dumb, IMO. I feel bad for him and his family. He in no way deserved what he got from these animals, but that was a risk he was willing to take for a paycheck. If we send in troops to get him out and some get killed in the process it gives the animals more incentive to take another reporter. Do nothing and the incentive lessens. The only incentive is shock value of a youtube beheading. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
