I refuse to find any upside in anyone's family being captured by terrorists.
I am against the war - very much so. But you walk a very dangerous line by looking at this in any kind of good light.
My heart goes out to Alawi, regardless of whether or not he's a 'puppet'. I would feel the same about it if it was Bush or Rove's family as well. There is a difference between political/ideological differences and the reality of having your wife and daughters beheaded.
I can understand having a moment of being misguided on this - maybe. But look at it this way: what did the wife and daughter do to deserve being terrorized and murdered? If it was Alawi himself in their hands, you might have a theoretical arguement - but not really. These actions are simply reprehensible.
It's his family. The terrorists deserve nothing but contempt for this.
