Why hasnt the President or another very senior leader gone on tv to warn that the murder of these soldiers will result in the execution of a like number of caputred terrorists

Two words: War Crime. I'm not being faceteous, as even the threat of executing prisoners if a demand is not met is a war crime.

80+ American POWs were murdered by Germans in the Battle of the Bulge, 80+ Germans were executed in reprisal. There were no more murders of American prisoners.

I dont give a damn about any Geneva Conventions when our guys are being captured and face certain death.
