Isn’t allowing a kidnapped hostage to kill himself a “hugh and series” violation of the almighty Geneva Convention? Where are the “human rights groups!”

OPINION:

I don’t believe the terrorists.
If Jason is dead; the terrorists are responsible.
Period.

In the wake of 911 I suggested that the only way to stop terrorism was to identify the perpetrators, then identify all known associates, friends and family members.

Kill all of those identified, every last man, woman and child.

Destroy the property of those people and erase every last vestige of their existence. Divide any assets among the initial victims.

That will be the end of terrorism, and it will only be necessary to do it once.

Doesn't matter. Legally, the kidnappers are still guilty (at some degree) of murder.

I'm guessing he managed to procure pliers and a blowtorch with which he tortured himself to death.

Too bad it would never happen, because you are right. That’s what the Russians do/did.

Yup.

In this war, it is kill or be killed.
