I am crying over the fighting men "America" left behind in enemy prisons in some of our "wars".

They were sent by America. These young people deliberately opted for schooling in a war zone. If they were Americans they had a choice and exercised it. We cannot protect them any more than forfeiting freedoms will protect us.

You seem to be conveniently ignoring the fact that the US is also now a "war zone". No doubt you believe that the people killed in the Los Angeles airport deserved it for having exercised their choice to go to an airport, when everybody with an ounce of common sense knows that airports are prime targets for terrorists. Ditto for high-rise buildings, national monuments, shopping malls, restaurants, trains, buses, universities, etc. etc. So, when are you moving to your bunker?
