Forbidden worship...

WTF: Punishing rescuers for risking their lives but failing LINK LINK.
What's wrong with this picture?

China is pressuring the gov't to punish our police and Mayor Lim for doing their best in a bad situation? England wants to prosecute a soldier who risked his life for a woman who knew her actions could result in being kidnapped?

Why punish the resucers who risked their lives, instead of countries like Italy who pay off terrorists, a policy that encourages more kidnappings and enables terrorist to kill more local folks? when the third Italian priest was kidnapped in the Philippines, local wags joked that the Abus must like pizza.

But of course, the dead killed because of ransom payments are locals and not important to the US or European press...
