She was not making minute to minute decisions for her family sake....her parents were! - And if they choose house insurgents, or help insurgents plant LOS IEDs...then they are fully responsible along with those insurgents.

And "there but for the grace of God go I" can be said by billions of people each day. That is no excuse.
