Unconfirmed...

But if true...

Remind me about that now unfashionable old long standing U.S. policy of never negotiating with terrorist/hostage taking bad actors... What was that about again?

News flash - when you subsidize some form of behavior, you get MORE of it.

Just as the late Daniel Patrick Moynihan famously said, "If you want more of something, subsidize it."

I’ll say Trump is going to once again threaten Iran that if these hostages aren’t released before Trump is sworn in there is going to be hell to pay.

Congress needs to cut the crap and impeach Obama. He refuses to protect Americans either abroad or at home.

If you pay the blackmailer, they don’t go away — they just ask for more.

It seems that Iran has revalidated a long-standing business model used in that part of the world for a few thousand years: kidnap for ransom.

Says kidnapping happened in Baghdad. Why are they saying Iran is responsible? Is it ISIS or Iran that kidnapped them?

That’s not ransom. That’s submission money. The more you submit to those subhumans the more they want.

Not to worry, John Kerry has been practicing some Cat Stevens that should have them freed soon.

Bad story if true, prayers for those abducted. This happens when kidnappers are given into which Israel never does someone once told me.

Unexpected!

Perhaps “Bolts” can send Neil Young...perhaps Sean Penn? Danny Glover? They can negotiate.
