It is a well-known US policy that we do not pay ransoms to terrorists because it only encourages them to keep kidnapping people. Except?

We do keep capitulating to domestic terrorists who venture forth and harm our country repeatedly. We keep "paying" the ransom but we never get back what was kidnapped, taken from us. How does that make any sense to you? Encouraging enabling supporting defending the undoing of our country by domestic terrorists is fine and dandy sweet as candy apparently. I guess it depends on which terrorists we deal with. The foreign ones aren't worth our time. The domestic ones we enshrine and we the people become supine and fall in line. Weird.

    Kidnapping money is not the same thing.  That is extortion.
