Know why?
1.- He invited the situation (capturing a terrorist mastermind is one thing, kidnapping him in a black hole without some sort of trial like Gitmo is ILLEGAL). The simple principle of escalation (you HAVE to expect a response).
2.- He pretty much WANTED the situation (at no point is he surprised or pondering about anything as if evrythig is fitting into his plan).
3.- He BS his way into the top post (his speech about not using the army is clear example of "covering his ass" since he can now say "Hey, don't blame me for the crap I did since I TOLD YOU SO".
4.- While a piss-poor terrorist can blow up dozens, a uy like him in his position can kill thousands.

You kill a person, you're a murderer. Kill thousands and you're a king.

That's why he has a French name.

He reminds me of Captain Rhodes from Day of the Dead, but much more threatening.

Indeed my dear Watson!
I see him like a Cheney character, only better looking and healtier (plus with the balls to at least do the dirty work himself like the torturing, unlike Dickless "5 deferrements" Chenney).
Gotta give him credit for that (you're gonna break the law for what you think is right, do it YOURSELF and take your chances with the courts later)
