In WWII the British and the French resistance came up with a plan to free 250 resistance fighters by bombing the walls of their prison. The prisoners were scheduled to be executed. The RAF warned that many and perhaps all of the prisoners might be killed by bombs. The resistance said, “it is better to die from RAF bombs than German bullets.” I think the same applies here.
Incidentally, the raid was a flawless success. Roughly 37 prisoners and 50 guards died.
Oh gosh. We got people killed that those poor Islamists were using as human shields. Aren’t we bad?!!!!!
