failed attempt?

P. Albertine
sometimes you can really get angry, headline "Special forces failed attempt to rescue Somers", what????  they took out 14 kidnapping terrorists, and got the guy out...he died, it happens...he didn't appear in a video having his head cut off...and the family got the body back, all this for a guy who carries a dual passport..british / US,  he couldn't even renounce his British citizenship to honor his 'new country'...and the guy wasn't a captured soldier ...he was a photographer, selling his pics to the highest bidder....now comes the ultimate insult....his family blames the US for his death, "if they wouldn't have tried the rescue attempt he would still be alive"...   thank you Seal Team six for taking out 14 terrorists, thank you US military, and thank you US taxpayers who just spent millions on the rescue of a guy who wanted to take pictures...

this really sucks

Could not agree more Paul.  What I have a problem with is these people that are always kidnapped "BY CHOICE" chose to be where they are.  They absolutely knew the dangerous going in so fuck them as far as I am concerned.  If someone tells me "Bear you might re-consider" robbing that bank because.............then if I go ahead and do the dirty deed then shame on me.  Lets take care of our own and the rest, well let their countries figure it out.

I start round 3 of chemo tomorrow so you can tell I am fired up and ready for another round.  It appears I will be on some sort of chemo for the rest of my born days.  If that is what it takes so be it.  I am on it.  REFUSE TO LOSE  NEVER QUIT1

The family would have been pissed at the US if we hadn't tried to get him out.  Damned if you do and damned if you don't.  You just can't please everyone.
