Re: Former 75th Army Ranger Peter E.Kassig Captured by ISIS
Another week has come and gone with no news on Ranger Kassig. I guess that is a good thing.

Sounds like they may be catching too much flak from other extremist groups, or he got tired of playing and killed as many of them as possible on his E&E route.

Re: Former 75th Army Ranger Peter E.Kassig Captured by ISIS
Wouldn't that be nice. My concern is that he may be so brainwashed or doped up at this point, that the head of the Syrian terrorists that was telling IS not to kill him because he's converted and also had treated the man himself for combat wounds will take him in on the condition that Kassig now fights with them, and he'll be labeled a traitor and marked by the U.S.IEDmagnet wrote:Sounds like they may be catching too much flak from other extremist groups, or he got tired of playing and killed as many of them as possible on his E&E route.

Hadn't even crossed my mind, I'm embarrassed to admit that. World just got a little darker, and it's already low on Illum.cams wrote:Wouldn't that be nice.

I don't have cable TV nor do I watch a lot of TV. It's a valid and plausible COA.Baseplate wrote:You should stop watching so much Homeland

Hard to believe this country can allow this to happen, but then, this is the administration which did not raise a hand when its ambassador was being murdered.
RIP, Ranger. May God Bless You and Your Entire Family.
Drive on, Rangers, we will meet at the rally point......
