Taliban or Al Queda aside; Pakistan is the place that harboured Bin Laden for years right beside an army base seemingly unaware he was there (bullcrap) and people still think this place is suitable for vacay time?

Mountainclimbing is risky and dangerous business so these folks were certainly not chicklets. Well they got more danger than they bargained for.

They did not use good judgement and of course, did not deserve their death, BUT............my sympathies are limited.

Everyone knows we have been at war with the Taliban for 12 years, and everyone knows there are Taliban in Pakistan, so if you go there you go at your own risk.

It's amazing how people blame America for everything, even when some idiot gets killed for being stupid.
No, you're wrong. NSA & Obama are supposed to protect every American around the world, no matter what bush or mountain we may be crawling in. We're the golden children; we are only supposed to die of old age (which, even then, is a failure of modern medicine to keep us immortal).

Gawd, just another incredibly idiotic C-D thread with the usually and equally idiotic responses.

NSA's function is to gather electronic intelligence. If members a group of Pakistani militants don't get on the phone, send emails of Tweet that they are off to kill a group of foreign tourist it sure as hell isn't a failure of the NSA
