Jordan is perfectly content in negotiating with a terrorist organization at the expense of threatening future terroristic missions on the behalf of Isis. I understand the mission but I don't understand the message their trying to convey to the terroristic organization knowing that the terrorist number one mission is actually to divide, destroy, and conquer with in any realm of existence. It's like having the Queen exposed from across the board, just heart breaking.

It doesn't look good for the Goto. "Our pilot for your suicide bomber - Deal!" That's literally how Jordan responded to IS's demand. The Japanese journalist was only included in the deal so Japan can help pressure Jordan to release the prisoner that IS wanted. Sadly for Goto, Jordan seemed willing enough to trade hostages and no actual need for Japan's help with the negotiation. I hope they simply free him too, not revise another deal or just resort to killing him.
