The Chinese-American was shaking his head as he said: “Zoey, think about this clearly. There is no way that the US is going to just sit by while a terrorist group kills its citizens on video. The United States does not stand for the killing of its citizens at all!”
Charlie was amused by him, and couldn’t help asking “Yet your people do nothing about the constant killing within its own borders.
