Unfortunately, I expect our POSOTUS to do nothing.....

If we had a POTUS with stones, they would have already received our gift of a tactical nuclear weapon courtesy of the 509th!

10:50 I think he'll just go play golf. Last year we lost a 4 star general in Iraq and he did nothing. But when Whitney Houston overdosed on drugs he ordered flags at half staff.

It's sad that she was killed, but one must ask.. what was she doing there in the first place?
'Aid worker'.
A noble thought, but voluntarily going into such a dangerous place comes with a tremendous amount of risk.
And it creates situations where others must risk their lives (and even die) to deal with the almost inevitable situation of hostage-taking.
ISIS is LOOKING for people to grab.
Should we be providing them with such opportunities?

I'm sorry however any person who goes there deserves what happens. We need to stay home and focus on us! Hell as far as we know she helped the enemy. We will never know the true story.

She was killed by an airstrike. Not by ISIS.

How does one differentiate between spy and aid worker?

I've never in my life seen so many Darwin candidates carrying the title reporter/aid worker/contracter.
