Do you think Sosa knew that the reporter's children were in the car? Would he have cared or forgiven Tony if he knew? We never see Tony even tell him what really happened while they were on the phone cussing each other out.
shareSosa did not care.
shareYeah, my money is on Sosa not even caring. I think Tony knew Sosa wouldn't have cared either; that's probably why he didn't tell him that was the reason the hit didn't happen. Tony had to make it sound like the opportunity didn't present itself because appealing to an emotional sense would not have worked on Sosa.
shareSosa didnt care. He wouldnt risk going to jail because of kids which shows how evil he really was
shareThat's pretty messed up, considering when he offers that last deal to Tony, he states that his own wife is due in three months, e.g. Sosa would soon become a father himself.

I think it was careless and irresponsible for the whistleblower to have kids in the car he had to know he'd be a target. Elliott Ness in The Untouchables had the sense to hide his kids.

lol it saved his life.
I think it is worse to blow up people, but that's just me.
Sosa did not know about the kids, why would he?
His orders were to kill the reporter not his family. But at the time they could not take him out without also harming his family so Alberto felt that he had no choice but to go ahead with it. They thought he was alone they did not expect his wife and kids to be in the car with him.
of course not! sosa had a heart of gold!!!

It seemed that Sosa may have believed the guy would be alone without the fam, or so it seemed, but in the end, he really didn't give a shit.
shareI actually felt that Tony could have leveraged this fact to his advantage in his final conversation with Sosa and maybe lived. Sure, Sosa would not have any moral issue with killing children but if Tony said "Hey, how do you think the press will react when two kids are blown up in New York, because their father was speaking to the media about Alexander Sosa? You'd be the Wolds most wanted man! The international community would put you at the top of the most wanted list and you'd be finished. I tried to point this out to him but he lacked the judgement to think of the massive amount of press and police/military heat on you, so I prevented him from doing that. You're welcome!"
Maybe Sosa might have had a moment of clarity and realized that as bad as the heat was with the bomb being found, the whole world would come crashing down on him when the pictures of those two kids ended up on the news for days. As angry as he might have felt he might have realized that Tony in fact saved his behind.
Any thoughts? Sosa seemed like a shrewed man, and could see the political blowback to kids being killed in front of the UN.
The children may not have even been the whistleblower's actual kids, but human shield kids who the CIA put in the car to protect him from assassination attempts.
