Well, not sure what we expect him to do.

There are limits to our ability to end these savages and almost no capability save prisoners of Islam.

Still, I’d have preferred we went King Herrod on them over the last 13 years.

Many options exist in response to the murderous thugs:

Unleash the military to attack ISIS;

Negotiate and hand over even more Guantanamo prisoners in exchange for the two reporters held captive;

Go back to Washington and assemble Congressional leaders and national security leaders to formulate a response;

Simply state the murderous bastards need to be quartered and buried with hog offal.

Unleash the military to attack ISIS;

We should be doing that anyway, regardless of the Foley's beheading. However, the reality is that many democrats, republicans, and Americans do not want troops on the ground in Iraq/Syria. Imagine the outrage here on FR if even one soldier were to die while trying to save a couple of reporters who voluntarily put themselves in harms way.

Negotiate and hand over even more Guantanamo prisoners in exchange for the two reporters held captive;

I assume you forgot the sarcasm tag.

Go back to Washington and assemble Congressional leaders and national security leaders to formulate a response;

See above. Not going to happen.

Simply state the murderous bastards need to be quartered and buried with hog offal.

Not good foreign policy to make threats that we aren't willing to back up.
