I agree. How is that modified by your having committed to do so?

What if you're on US business? If your answer is still to let them rot,
then I disagree. I also think that there are times when it's simply in
the best interest of the nation to do something about it. And, I think
we as a people would be better off if the rest of the world knew that
they'd be in deep doodoo for messing with citizens of the US, so
sometimes I think we ought to aggressively pursue situations where our
folks are being abused.
