We, western man, are under attack. Globally.
Islam is raising it’s head. It does not help that the mulim CIC is their great enabler.

For those who think there are moderate muslims, please view

Those who do not know history (or ignore it) are condemned to repeat it. [Georges Santayna “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”)

See Danegeld and the fact that once paid, is always owed! We RANSOMED Bergdahl and now the 4 political captives in Iran. What lesson was learned by the antagonists? Get more captives and you can get more Danegeld!

Release more terrorists from GITMO in exchange for our hostages, or send them another boatload of weapons, or another billion dollars. Somehow this doesn’t feel quite right. Sounds like extortion to me.

Why not? Obama and Kerry may have another billion dollars of ransom money to give to terrorists and their governments.

He must read Trump’s tweets as soon as he gets up in the morning so he can stay on top of things ;)

More of that “good day” genius “give nukes to the enemy” diplomacy that Neville Obama and his boss Valerie Insanity has shoved down our throats.

I thought after the prisoners were released, Iran would go hunting for more Americans in order to swap them for more of their prisoners. Sadly, trading prisoners is just as enticing as paying ransom for them.

Oblama just triggered the largest series of hostage-takings ever by paying Iran BIG BUCKS for hostages.

Maybe. But anyone who knows anything about Obama knows he doesn't give a crap about American citizens.

The Bergdahl deal was done because he wanted to empty Gitmo. The recent Iranian prisoner release was done because he wanted to showcase his nuclear figleaf. Yes, they've poured cement into one reactor, but my understanding is that there's a major military base where nuclear work occurs that can never be inspected. He released frozen money because he wanted the deal done so bad. And, he handed the guys in the boats to Iran for publicity purposes, because.. well I don't know, maybe he just likes being on the bottom when a mullah is involved.

But, you can bet your bottom dollar that if you're Mr. Ordinary American Citizen, and you get kidnapped, your Obama-run government won't do crap to get you released.

“...had been kidnapped by militias in Baghdad....”
***********************************************************
Prayers up for the Americans. If they have actually been kidnapped by “militias” in Baghdad, that almost certainly would mean with the Iran-allied Shia militias supported by the Baghdad government.

This is NOT good...none of it.

And he paid them 1.5 billion in interest for some debt from decades ago.

We celebrate the release of Americans from Iran, but this deal with Iran sets a dangerous precedent. https://t.co/bVfZhPMISQ

Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) January 17, 2016
****************************************************************
Ted Cruz was SPOT-ON in recognizing this as a danger. American presidents since Thomas Jefferson have known that nothing is gained by ransoming hostages from Muslims except to motivate more kidnappings. The idiots Obama and Kerry are exceptions to this wisdom.
