Phew.



I'll be happy when he's on US soil though.  And he should get a medal, but probably won't.

He might, but TV shows tell me it'll be kept in a safe and he'll never get to wear it....

It was always about the money.

Having your family members killed by US personnel (even though it was justified) is their version of hitting the lotto.


How much money? Or is it measured in cattle?

So when a Pak Gov officer gets drunk and runs over someone in NYC or get caught committing some illegal act, are we going to give them the same treatment?

Absolutely not. The foreign national would most likely be questioned and released at the scene. Arrested? No way. Tried? No fucking way in hell.

I still don't know why he didn't "gun and run" wouldn't a CIA guy have some pretty good E&E skills?
