Why should our government get involved? They got caught stealing, breaking the law in another country.
You are dreaming if you think the PC corp (corpse) will not lobby the government to get involved in their release. The tenor of my comment was not for that to happen; I am in no way suggesting the government should get involved. IMO, if they do it will something like the bergdahl matter, someone will lobby for their receiving money for being held in a chinese jail!
