[quote=Anonymous]I think it's heart-breaking and from all accounts she wasn't some wahoo deciding to go hiking on the edge of a war zone for fun. She truly had a good soul and felt a calling to go to a horrible part of the world. That being said, goodness and well-meaning intent doesn't negate the fact that it was a reckless and dangerous decision. I take issue with those who say our government doesn't do enough to rescue our citizens. My frustration, even anger, is that there is an expectation that people can make poor choices (go to Syria, Korean War vet going to Pyongyang, hikers in Iran to name a recent few) and then expect us to expend time, lots of taxpayer money, and plenty of diplomatic capital trying to free them.[/quote]
