But didnt we let the terrorist win by not saving that mans life? I know we dont bargain with trroroists but what do you tell the familys how have people over there 'Im sorry'.

We did not let the terrorists win by not giving into their demands, if we had released the prisoners they wanted to bargain for then they would have won. If we had done so that would have opened the floodgates to further kidnappings, we are protecting others from these attacks by not bargaining.
