5. After all that's gone on I understand your point.

From my viewpoint, my ass would be on the next flight /bus /train /donkey cart out of whatever country it was. Maybe I'm just a real coward, but NO job is worth that to me. By extension, I'm having a tough time getting more worked up about this latest killing.

I'm sorry for the family--what happened is a terrible loss, I'm sure. My heart to them in this time of sorrow.

I'm sorry for the guy--it had to have been a terrible way to go--but didn't he PLACE himself in the situation by staying there in Saudi after the State Dept issued warnings to get out?

Berg was in a similar situation, as well...

I dunno-maybe I deserve to get flamed for this, but it seems to me that at some point I have to live and die by my own decisions.
