There's always more to the story.

Another dewy-eyed revolutionary. That explains why she thought she could travel into Syria with impunity--she was one of them.

But let the canonization begin. As Barack said, “Kayla dedicated her life to helping others in need at home and around the world.... Kayla represents what is best about America, and expressed her deep pride in the freedoms that we Americans enjoy, and that so many others strive for around the world.... Kayla Mueller used these freedoms she so cherished to improve the lives of others.”

Curious, isn't it, how the speechwriter left out the part about rioting with the Palestinians? Maybe it scrolled too fast off the Teleprompter.

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.
