Should we trade arms for hostages, like Reagan did?

[NYcarbineer]

...i.e., the American hostages in Algeria?

Is this a 'what would Reagan do' situation?

Should we trade arms for hostages

No.

We should just give arms for nothing in return. Gratis.

Like Eric Holder did with the Mexican drug cartels.

Congressional testimony is difficult to un-invent.

There's no testimony that describes that happening.

Agents watched illegal deals. They were private sales.

No guns were introduced by the government.

And that was "part of the problem" you folks were pointing too, because unlike the program under George Bush, which did introduce new guns with tracking devices, this was a good deal more passive. And the program that occurred under the Bush administration, "failed" because the people buying the guns, removed the tracking devices.

What hostages?

What planet?

 

[NYcarbineer]

The Israelis relesase thousands of Palestinian prisoners to get a couple of their guys back, and everyone thinks the Israelis are geniuses in these sorts of situations.

Maybe that's a better idea?

 

[nitroz]

No. Just go in there and clean house.

If they do anything bad to the hostages, then just stay and kill them. It will eliminate any problems in the future from them.

 

[blackhawk]

No we will just let them be killed and blame it all on a youtube video isn't that the new model?
