If you think that's offensive, check this out.

Sybarite		2012-10-02 10:19:48 AM

Nuland said that the video "may have been staged"

I don't appreciate their ruse.

Diogenes		2012-10-02 10:24:39 AM

If this really is government forces, what's the likelihood it would be enough to get us involved?

I'm not advocating that. Just curious.

xanadian		2012-10-02 10:26:57 AM

Ya know, if that kid ends up getting harmed, there will rightfully be calls for blood.

I'm on the fence for advocating it. Getting neck-deep in another conflict would be a bad idea, though. Maybe we can just blow up two ammo dumps, an abandoned railroad bridge and a Syrian intelligence agency.

Because Obama always responds with war when Americans are killed abroad.

You're not alone. My doctor is Syrian and he's so afraid for his parents there. It's hard for good people to see this happen and resist the desire to help. I'm glad I don't have to make that decision.

NowhereMon		2012-10-02 11:35:37 AM

Huh, usually celebrity look-alike headlines don't go green

Makh		2012-10-02 12:10:21 PM

It's because he believes in a ruling class.

Dead for Tax Reasons		2012-10-02 12:17:00 PM

he's just an independent contractor, a potential casualty of a war he had nothing to do with

You're not allowed to rent here anymore!

/Yeah!

Except for, you know, all the contract work he's getting because of it.

Bitterman		2012-10-02 01:35:20 PM

This will turn out well.

Oooo!

gretzkyscores		2012-10-02 01:38:20 PM

Bunch of savages in that ~~town~~ country.

Dr Dreidel		2012-10-02 01:41:02 PM

On his last day in captivity, he should do something crazy, like spray-paint "Eat Pussy" on the side of the building.

GoldDude		2012-10-02 01:42:43 PM

He's probably being held captive because of his firmly held beliefs on the subject of ATM.

Mock26		2012-10-02 01:44:19 PM

He should be tortured for that picture alone.

sore_bluto		2012-10-02 01:47:31 PM

Check this out. I think you can see her kidneys.

Their cunning attempt to trick him.

Beat me to it.

Is it safe?

MagSeven		2012-10-02 01:52:28 PM

There goes Randall, he's a ~~berzerker~~Infidel!

Felgraf		2012-10-02 01:56:11 PM

Yeah I'm not gonna be surprised if this is the desperate act of the Syrian regime.

Fano		2012-10-02 01:57:12 PM

Try not to suck any dicks on your way out

you think they are making him watch Happy Scrappy Hero Pup?

like the death star contractors are still getting?

mechgreg		2012-10-02 02:16:58 PM

So is it safe to say that an American journalist held captive in Syria is not the best of both worlds?

flynn80		2012-10-02 02:17:37 PM

Hmmm, ex-military "journalist" roaming around a country the US wants to turn into a war zone is not suspicious at all, nothing to see here citizen.

Glenford		2012-10-02 02:17:40 PM

I believe in the philosophy of a ruling class. Especially since I rule.

mechgreg		2012-10-02 02:18:37 PM

Is this the person holding him?

Holocaust Agnostic		2012-10-02 02:25:44 PM

Is he a journalist or a "journalist"?

MythDragon		2012-10-02 02:27:09 PM

He wasn't even supposed to be there today.

bim1154		2012-10-02 02:34:17 PM

I never feel sorry for anyone who goes to one of these war torn shiat holes and something bad happens to them. fark em.

Unless he is being held captive by chicks with dicks, it is not.

May I suggest...

he looks a lot like Cillian Murphy, the guy from Inception

Because Obama always responds with war when Americans are killed abroad.

What about the Americans he orders killed?

megalopolous		2012-10-02 04:00:48 PM

After reading the headline and the first few comments, I couldn't read any of the comments without hearing them in Randall's voice in my head.

Falcon Hunter		2012-10-02 04:15:30 PM

Man goes into plane, plane goes into Syria. Terrorists in Syria. Their terrorists.

These guys know that the extra money comes with extra risk. Now what? Taxpayers are supposed to spend millions of dollars in reconnaissance, SEAL team 7: Electric Boogaloo, and tactical flubber, because the pay sucked photographing high school yearbook photos in Texas?

JonnyG		2012-10-02 05:44:39 PM

How convenient. If anything, the FSA or USA has him and is doing whatever they can to start bombing that country. Leave Syria alone and leave Syria. Then drop the bullsh*t being spewed about Iran. Wake the hell up, people. There are other, better ways to make obscene amounts of money.
