I love this sort of news. Brave soldiers risking their lives to save hostages, while cowardly terrorists lose their own trying to take those of others. What could be better?
I’m not so sanguine. Why do these people make themselves available as live bait in the first place? There are a million places in the world to “do good” where you don’t inject yourself into other people’s fights. What if the brave soldiers had been killed rescuing people who should never have been there in the first place?
