Abbottabad and Costello

Warren Weinstein has been abducted in Pakistan. In all likelihood, Mr. Weinstein has been or will be murdered and in an odious, torturous way. What ever could possess an educated, multilingual, purportedly intelligent American and Jew to accept employment in Pakistan, one of the most openly belligerent places on earth to US citizens in general and rabidly hateful of Jews in particular? Had such an erudite and accomplished individual as Weinstein not heard the fate that befell Daniel Pearl? Had he figured with discernibly Jewish name and Western appearance he could somehow blend in? I hope he lives to regret his mistake and not have to pay the ultimate price for wanting to lift bloodthirsty atavists out of their misery, but I am sadly certain video will soon be produced with Weinstein confessing to masked captors who have grievously and woefully injured him to extract these untruths that he is both an agent of the American Central Intelligence Agency and a Zionist spy. Hate-filled genocidal primitives do not need the copious aid we provide but to be utterly defeated where they no longer pose a threat to Westerners as individuals and to our very civilization.
