Bastards...

[b4its2late]

It’s like deja vu all over again.

[Chode]

feh... lets hope this is a learning experience for them not to play with fire, something their parents obviously never taught them but should have

[americanophile]

This is such an outrage. These are just some innocent, well-meaning kids. This president is absolutely impotent.

[Deetes]

0ero could save his own grand mother from a single story building..

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

I have no sympathy for people who do this. Next time you want to hiking, take a trip to Oregon, morons!! Where do they go clothes shopping, Syria?

[Tzimisce]

A bunch of dumb liberals trying to do some kind of braindead publicity stunt.

I don’t feel sorry for these idiots.

[Carry_Okie]

Zero should "at least talk to them," then things will be all better.

Talk to them Zero, let them feel the magic... TALK to them!!!

So, when is Obama gonna go in with the Navy Seals and get them out? Oh wait, forgot, he got them killed recently! Once again, Iran holds Americans hostage and our government lets them get away with it. Our nation has become spineless once again, just like under Carter.

[jmcenanly]

Just what we need, a remake of the Iranian Hostage Crisis.

I'm surprised there is so little concern for these guys from Freepers. The 70's really are repeatingThis is an indication of how little weight we have in the world now.

Billary and Zero are completely helpless because they won't fight for us and the whole world knows it. Iran is not afraid of us.

These guys are hostages now, part of the propaganda war that encourages islamic militants to be more aggressive against our military. Anywhere an American is in the hands of our enemy we are all endangered, regardless of their stupidity in putting themselves in danger.

[apoliticalone]

Who cares? Anyone stupid enough to hike in Iran and Iraq in what is a combat zone deserve what they get.

Young people wishing to hike in a war zone should have enlisted in the US Marines or Army infantry.

To be frank they are lucky to be alive with their reckless behavior, while thousands of our American military who viewed this war much more seriously are either not alive today or have been changed forever. I oppose even a dollar of my taxes or military effort expended on their stupidity.

Accountability is about understanding that stupidity has repercussions, and others should not be required to sacrifice.

I would like your take on this Allegra since you have more experience in Iraq than anyone else on this site.

[cashless]

I really don't give a rip about the hikers, why they were there or whatever. What I do know is that Ronald Reagan would have had a five minute address to the nation and would have told the Iranians that they had two choices and they should make the right choice or the bombing would start in 30 minutes. We rely way too much on protocol and back door negotiations. One well placed Cruise middle would have guaranteed their release the day after their capture was announced. The Iranians know the Dip$hit in Chief would never attack his Muslim brothers. The rest of the world know he'd rather bow than bomb. Our weakness is being exploited.

[TigersEye]

Looks like a complete idiot festival happened in your keyword section.

[10thAmendmentGuy]

Can’t wait to hear the hypocrisy from some on the left who will now call for the U.S. to intervene and rescue them. I’m sure the U.S. would if they had been kidnapped, but all indications are that they were in fact trespassing in Iran, and that’s a pretty dumb thing to do, considering the nut-job in charge there.

[MNDude]

They need a mandatory class called “Common Sense 101” at all schools.

It would be nice if StarTrek transporter real to transport all the homosexual activists in San Francisco to Iran...
