I would have preferred that the American escaped and lived to tell us of his mistakes.

So would most of us. Tell us of his mistakes? Like? Like? Names, please. Barry Bonds? Elvis Presley? Jimmy Carter? Sorry, it may be just me, but I can't think of an American in recent memory who escaped (whatever there was to escape) and "tell us of his mistakes".

There was a contracted truck driver for Halliburton who lived to tell his story. Escaped under his own power with busted arms and knees. Shortly after Baghdad fell and right before we captured Saddam.
