Al Qaeda beheaded and otherwise executed a number of Americans in Afghanistan and Iraq while Bush was president.
Did Bush kill them the way Obama killed Foley?

#5: All wars have had atrocities within the zone involved. Not relevant.
Daniel Pearl comes to mind:
He was taken in Pakistan and killed within a month.
Jimmy Carter's failed "rescue attempt" also comes to mind.
Then the Entebbe Raid comes to mind.

Here's the real "point" with Syria:
Tomatoes?
As for comparison with Bush, how is that a "defense" for Obaminable.
So, if Bush "allowed" people's heads to be sawed off, it's "OK" for YOUR MAN IN THE WHITE HOUSE NOW?
