“...and the courageousness of the soldiers who brought him home.”

Isn’t it just called “courage”?

Only 6 out of 7, but not a bad batting average.

Is is an old Indian trick. In this case, left someone to relate how the other 6 all had their heads blown off in less than 6 seconds.

They were all dead before they knew what happened," I just hate it when that happens /sarc.

I would have preferred, "They were all dead after several minutes of knowing exactly what was happening."

The one kidnapper not killed may have just been lucky enough to be away, when they strike came, going to the store, or something.

Probably both, although in this case it appears their intel is pretty solid (and inexpensive). It is cost effective, we are improving the local economy and getting rid of bad guys. {;^)

I’ll take that question: He & his wife are MISSIONARIES, as are my nephew & his wife.
(KT & Z are ILLEGAL missionaries to RED CHINA’s Christians & they “slip in & out” of China with the ease of water running in a river.)

Our church as had missionaries in Nigeria since about 1820 & ALL of them believe that they are “FULFILLING JESIS’s PLANS”.

FYI, our church has had MANY missionaries KIDNAPPED, ASSAULTED, TORTURED, RAPED & MURDERED, including some who have been CRUCIFIED over the years BUT more missionaries continue to go into danger each year.
(Fwiw, our church had EIGHT missionaries murdered in JUST ONE DAY, several years ago.)

NOTE: Mother was terribly disappointed that I became (after going to OBU, which is ONE of our denomination’s premier missionary training colleges) a career soldier & my younger sister became a schoolteacher, rather than going into the Mission Field. - She finally got her wish with her only grand-nephew & his bride.

Yours, TMN78247
