.. her shot dead at the end in cold blood. I have the distinct belief those people would not have any compunction to give a double tap to her head at point blank and do the same to her FBI colleagues. What was there to stop them. They did not exist. The building did not exist. Nobody knew where Brody was or had been. I was silently urging her to shut up and seriously believed her to be signing her death warrant.

When you have a Martyr of Islam holding a gun there is a definite chance he will turn it on himself I would think. Why did nobody shoot at his hand holding the gun? There was about 10 guns aimed at him for a minute before he used the one he had.

Gee, I wonder why the military didn't kill a bunch of FBI agents. Maybe because those agents still have to report back to work? And the sudden deaths of half a dozen FBI agents would cause a huge scandal and investigation. Something they wanted to avoid.

As for why they don't shoot his hand, they're not snipers. The average agent is not trained to shoot a small body part. They aim for the biggest and easiest to hit target: the center of the chest.

Straightedge means I'm better than you.
