        @ABC But Obama gives his terrorist friends 5 of their comrades back for a traitor and deserter. How is this President still in office?

        @ABC Well when you're in a war zone bad things can happen. I can understand comments from a parent but there was nothing the U.S. could do!

        @ABC The best way to prove Obama is not a lame duck POTUS is to send ground troops to Syria & destroy ISIL once and for all. Unlikely?

        @ABC# Western leaders lack plan and appetite to diminish and destroy the ISIS evil created by the ego and miscalculation of Bush and Blair.

        @ABC Understandable sentiment, but not true. What if rescue team was killed? Or ransom created demand for more hostages? We can't act rash.
